About this role

Power Electronics Manufacturing Engineering Lead San Carlos, CA, US Overview Joby Aviation is building the future of electric flight, and we need a hands-on Manufacturing Engineering Lead to ramp our Electric Propulsion Unit (EPU) Inverter to high-rate production and launch the next-gen Inverter. Based in San Carlos, CA, you'll own the line: standing up equipment, locking in processes, and scaling power electronics manufacturing alongside our Powertrain & Electronics ME team. This is a builder's role for an engineer who lives in the details - someone with deep mechanical and electrical fundamentals, real shop-floor instincts, and the pragmatism to make hard calls under aggressive timelines. You'll be on the floor with technicians one hour and solving hard problems alongside senior leaders the next. Decisions move fast here, and the work you do will show up in aircraft that fly. Responsibilities Own EPU Inverter manufacturing end-to-end - in-house assembly and test, plus scale-up with manufacturing partners. You're the technical authority on how this product gets built. Drive equipment projects with internal teams and external suppliers - specs, builds, buy-offs, and installs - to deliver production-intent tooling on schedule Ramp line capacity to hit rate and program milestones - debottleneck, balance stations, and prove out throughput Build the processes that make a fast team faster - clear interfaces with design, quality, and supply chain; no bureaucracy for its own sake Report line readiness to leadership with data, not hand-waving Mentor
