Job description

Company Overview

Imagine a piloted air taxi that takes off vertically, then quietly carries you and your fellow passengers over the congested city streets below, enabling you to spend more time with the people and places that matter most. At Joby, we've been working to make that dream a reality since 2009 and we're now in the final stages of certifying our aircraft with the FAA. With plans to launch our aircraft in the US and Dubai, we're now scaling manufacturing and preparing for the launch of our commercial service.

Overview

Joby Aviation is seeking a highly motivated Composite Production Engineer to support composite part fabrication and assembly in a fast-paced production environment.  This role is focused on driving daily build success on the production floor by providing real-time technical support, removing blockers, and improving process stability and rate capability.  The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with composite manufacturing processes and thrives in a high-mix, low-volume aerospace environment, working cross-functionally to bridge engineering and production.

Responsibilities
  • Provide real-time engineering support on the production floor to maintain flow and resolve build issues
  • Develop and optimize composite manufacturing processes (layup, cure, trim, bonding, assembly)
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Design, Tooling, Quality, and Production teams to ensure manufacturability and smooth execution
  • Support root cause analysis (RCCA) and implement corrective/preventive actions to reduce defects, scrap, and rework
  • Create and maintain manufacturing documentation (MWIs, SOPs, process specs) aligned with shop-floor execution
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives (Lean, Kaizen, 5S) to improve efficiency and process stability
  • Support production readiness, capacity planning, and rate ramp-up activities
  • Train and mentor technicians to ensure consistent and high-quality process execution
  • Support and Roll out new processes from NPI and process engineering team to Production line
Required
  • B.S. in Engineering or similar degree
  • 1-3 years as a Manufacturing/Production Engineer 
  • Hands-on experience with composite manufacturing processes:
    • Hand layup, vacuum bagging, curing (autoclave/oven)
    • Bonding and assembly processes
  • Experience writing clear and effective work instructions
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and BOMs
  • Experience in high-mix, low-volume production environments
  • Strong problem-solving skills with a structured approach (RCA, 5-Why, etc.)
  • Strong Technical Communication skills
Desired
  • Experience in aerospace or advanced composites industry
  • Familiarity with CAD tools (NX, CATIA, SolidWorks)
  • Experience with PLM and/or MES systems
  • Experience with laser projection systems (e.g., Virtek, Aligned Vision)
  • Experience with composite cutting systems (Gerber, Zund, Eastman)
  • Exposure to AFP/ATL or automated processes
  • Lean Six Sigma certification or equivalent experience
Additional Information

Compensation at Joby is a combination of base pay and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The target base pay for this position is $74,300 - $123,600/yr. The compensation package will be determined by job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.  Joby also offers a comprehensive benefits package, including paid time off, healthcare benefits, a 401(k) plan with a company match, an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP), short-term and long-term disability coverage, life insurance, and more.

Joby is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
