Job description

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. Joby is seeking a talented electrical engineer to join our team designing all-electric aircraft. This engineer will work closely with mechanical, software, and other cross-functional teams. You'll be taking ownership of key electrical subsystems and printed-circuit-boards from design through prototyping and to product. This is a hands-on position. Optimizing designs for reliability, weight, and efficiency will be a focus. • Create clear and readable schematics for digital and mixed-signal printed-circuit-boards • Component selection for minimum mass and maximum reliability • Investigate modern technologies for power and data transmission/management • Work with PCB designers to create reliable and low-weight layouts • Write and validate requirements • Work with system safety team to drive DFMEAs • Author verification test cases and execute the test cases • Assist with the creation, bring-up, and support of tools to support design • Drive continual process improvements, maturing existing designs, and incorporating feedback from field use cases • B.S. in Electrical Engineering (or a related discipline) with 2+ years of relevant industry working experience, or equivalent work experience • Strong electrical engineering fundamentals, including: • Power conversion (linear and switching regulators) • Digital design and layout • Signal conditioning and conversion (ADCs, filters) • Discrete semiconductor design (FETs, BJTs, Diodes) • Schematic capture and PCB design • Experience with component selection • Hands-on experience with building and debugging hardware • Great communication skills • M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or related discipline • Experience with electric transportation • Experience with high voltage DC electrical systems • Familiarity with Altium Designer • Exposure to regulatory certification • Design-for-reliability experience, including the use of DFMEA and fault trees Compensation at Joby is a combination of base pay and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The target base pay for this position is $87,500 - $160,000/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
