What is JetZero?
Today's aircraft contribute around 4% of global CO2 emissions, equivalent to the emissions of 200 million cars. This is only going to increase: Air travel is forecasted to double by 2050, while meaningful efficiency gains using current airplanes have hit a wall.
JetZero is developing a blended-wing body (BWB) aircraft. It uses up to 50% less fuel and will be built to accommodate zero-emission hydrogen propulsion. JetZero is the inevitable solution to sustainable air travel.
The JetZero Team
We are experienced aerospace professionals and engineers, excited about the future. That future will only be possible if we share our vision and what it means to people's lives: carbon-free flight that' is better for both passengers and airlines around the world.
The Propulsion Architect will combine engineering management, supplier engagement, strategy, business development, and a strong technical background in propulsion airframe integration. You'll be interfacing with internal organizations from other engineering groups, supply chain, sales & marketing, and external groups such as the Engine, APU, and Nacelle OEMs.
You'll work in a collaborative, multidisciplinary, agile environment using modern tools and practices, with strong opportunities for professional development. In addition, contribute to the design and development of the Blended Wing Body (BWB) aircraft. The candidate will lead the Powerplant teams to supplier selection.
What You'll Do:
What You Bring:
Our compensation package is a blend of base salary and equity options for eligible employees. The range for this role is $180,000-$220,000. We consider a number of factors when presenting a final offer, including geography, internal equity and years of experience and expertise.
