Full Job Description

Company Overview

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.

Overview

We are seeking a Senior Industrial Designer to design the aesthetic and functional evolution of our current aircraft and design what’s next. This role is at the intersection of aerospace precision and automotive-grade luxury, requiring a designer who can balance the "magic" of the passenger experience with the "mechanics" of FAA certification.

You will be responsible for defining the visual language of the Joby brand across physical touchpoints—from the cockpit ergonomics to the cabin textures—ensuring our aircraft is not just a feat of engineering, but a world-class product.

Responsibilities

End-to-End Design: Follow design process from blue-sky sketching and 2D ideation to 3D surface development and high-fidelity physical prototyping.
Interior & Human Factors: Design ergonomic, lightweight cabin environments, including seating, lighting, and stowage, focusing on "human-centric" design that meets Part 23 certification standards.
CMF Strategy: Develop and implement Color, Materials, and Finishes (CMF) strategies that prioritize sustainability, weight reduction, and premium aesthetics.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Cabin Design Engineers and Manufacturing Teams to ensure designs are optimized for high-volume carbon fiber production and assembly.
Digital & Physical Fusion: Work with CATIA to create Class-A surfaces while overseeing the creation of full-scale models for design validation.
Competitive Vision: Maintain a deep understanding of the eVTOL landscape and automotive trends to keep Joby at the forefront.
Brand awareness: Be a steward of the Joby brand and translate the brand across all products from the aircraft, infrastructure, marketing and digital products.

Required

Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Industrial Design, Transportation Design, or a related field.
Experience: 8+ years of professional industrial design experience in Automotive, Aerospace, or Premium Transportation.
Portfolio: A world-class portfolio demonstrating a strong sense of form, sophisticated surfacing, and a deep understanding of user experience.
Technical Mastery: Expert-level proficiency in 3D modeling (CATIA 3DX or Rhino, Blender) and visualization tools (KeyShot, VRED, or Unreal Engine).
Materials Knowledge: Hands-on experience with advanced materials, including carbon fiber composites, technical textiles, and lightweight metallics.
Prototyping: Experience working with model shops to oversee the fabrication of high-fidelity physical prototypes.

Desired

Automotive and Aerospace Background: Experience in both Automotive and Aerospace Design is highly valued. Must have the ability to to have the design sensitivity found in car design combined with the real world experience of designing certified aircraft interiors,
Certification Mindset: Familiarity with FAA or EASA aerospace regulations and best practices is a significant plus.
Entrepreneurial Spirit: A "zero-ego" approach to feedback and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, iterative startup environment.
Visionary Thinking: Ability to simplify complex technical requirements into elegant, intuitive, and iconic design solutions.
