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.

  • Experience with modern integrated development environments and debuggers
  • Basic understanding of version control technologies
  • Exposure to python
Desired
  • A positive attitude and a passion for Aerospace!
  • Willingness to be flexible and learn new technologies
  • Ability to work inside of a team
  • Familiarity with training device qualification through FAA CFR 14 part 60
  • Familiarity with the needs of pilot training programs
