We are looking for a Senior Test Pilot to join us in testing and certifying a new class of all-electric aircraft. As a member of the Flight Test team, you will be working closely with other Test Pilots and Flight Test Engineers as well as cognizant systems engineers and the certification group to validate and verify a revolutionary new aircraft design. Wisk recognizes the challenges that the UAM industry faces with regards the certification path for our vehicles.

Due to the nature of the work required for this position, this is an onsite opportunity. You will be required to work from our Hollister, CA flight test facility. Infrequent travel to offsite test locations and training facilities will be part of the scope of your duties.

Your role will involve developing test plans following SMS processes to complete Test Hazard Analyses. You will support test program scheduling, participate in flight test execution as a Test Pilot, and write test reports to a standard required by certification authorities. You will also support writing and updating program documents including Aircraft Flight Manuals and Standard Operating Procedures.
