About Electra Electra is building the EL9 Ultra Short - a nine-passenger hybrid-electric aircraft that takes off and lands in 150 feet. By pairing blown-lift aerodynamics with distributed electric propulsion, the EL9 opens thousands of new access points - fields, parking lots, small airstrips - that conventional aviation can't touch. We call it Direct Aviation: getting people from where they are to where they want to go, without the airports, noise, or emissions. The Role We're hiring a Director of Manufacturing Engineering to stand up the manufacturing engineering function for the EL9 program from the ground up. This is a build role. You'll define how the EL9 gets built - the production system, the build plan, the tooling and equipment strategy, the NRC and RC budgets, and the manufacturing requirements that flow back into the design as the program moves from critical design review through the first conforming aircraft and into serial production. You'll partner closely with...
