Joby Overview

Located in Northern California, the team at Joby Aviation is driven by our goal of creating an affordable, all-electric air transportation system. 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. Since 2009, our team has worked steadily to make this dream a reality. We’ve designed and tested many generations of prototype aircraft capable of serving in a network of electric air taxis. We’re looking for talented, committed individuals to join our team as we push onwards toward certifying the Joby aircraft with the Federal Aviation Administration, scaling our manufacturing, and launching our initial commercial service.

You will design, implement, and test flight-critical software components with C++ as well as integrate these into the larger system.

Required

• Bachelor's degree in computer science or computer engineering and 7+ years of full-time experience. An advanced degree and 5+ years industry experience will also be considered.
• Expert knowledge of C++
• Knowledge of object-oriented programming methodology, multi-layered system architectures, and creating clean APIs that are independent of the OS (operating system)
• Demonstrable knowledge of multi-threaded systems
• Experience with modern integrated development environments and debuggers
• Willingness to be flexible and learn new technologies
• Ability to work inside of a hybrid team (office & remote)

Desired

• Experience with or knowledge of DO-178B/C, particularly writing low-level requirements
• Expert knowledge of distributed computing frameworks/IPC
• Demonstrable proficiency in other SW languages such as: Python, C#, C, SQL
• Experience using git version control
• A positive attitude and a passion for aerospace!
