Government Engagement Intern

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 preparing to launch commercial service in 2025. Overview:

As a Government Engagement Intern, you will be part of a small team working with existing national security customers and developing a broader strategy for the federal market. In this role, you will work across Joby’s technical and non-technical teams to develop an understanding of Joby’s technologies and their potential use cases beyond the commercial air taxi market. You will develop whitepapers, presentations, and product roadmaps for novel applications of Joby’s groundbreaking eVTOL aircraft and other technologies, and aid the rest of the Joby team in the demonstration and implementation of these applications. An ideal candidate should be a team player able to operate in a fast-paced, demanding, and rewarding environment.
