How you contribute to revolutionizing electric aviation:
- Work in an innovative and fast paced team to design and analyze CTOL and VTOL configurations of Beta aircraft.
- Support integration and analysis of key parts of the aircraft, providing a strong understanding of all aircraft commodity main load paths.
- Participate in large-scale testing to meet certification requirements.
- Complete FEM activities including FE modelling and post processing to support certification and product development.
- Perform stress analysis, using engineering principal hand calculations and FEM.
- Perform trade studies for product development, working closely with IPT.
- Support low level test execution, derive stress requirements and allowables and analyze test results.
- Provide support to other internal departments that may require your Stress skills.

What We Do
BETA Technologies is creating an electric transportation ecosystem that’s safe, reliable and sustainable. A relentlessly focused team is building an extensive charging infrastructure and ALIA, the world’s most technologically advanced electric vertical aircraft (EVA).
BETA’s platform and products are strikingly simple. Prioritization of safety and a pragmatic approach to certification drive elegant redundancy, appropriate diversity of implementation and simplicity of control. ALIA’s fixed-pitch propellers and centrally located batteries make it an inherently stable aircraft that is safe to fly and easy to maneuver.
