Platform Software Engineer

At BETA Technologies, we apply our intellectual curiosity, passion for aviation, and commitment to sustainability toward a shared mission of revolutionizing electric aviation. Regardless of the position one holds, each team member brings their talent and desire to positively impact the environment and lives of others in a refreshing, vibrant, and inclusive culture.

We are actively seeking a talented Platform Software Engineer to join our Development Platform team. In this role, you will build and maintain the internal platform services that empower software engineers across BETA to move faster, with consistent guardrails, shared standards, and self-serve tooling. You will play a key role in enabling citizen developers, contributing to our BETA OS initiative, and building solutions that make our engineering, IT, and HelpDesk teams more efficient.

How you will contribute to revolutionizing electric aviation:

• **Support Citizen Developers:**Enable non-traditional developers across BETA by supporting and expanding access to internal platforms such as BETA Forge and AI-assisted coding tools like Claude Code, providing documentation, training resources, and hands-on guidance to help teams build solutions independently
• **Build Self-Serve Solutions:**Design and develop internal platform services, APIs, and automation tooling that allow engineering and operations teams to independently provision, configure, and manage resources without requiring custom one-off support. Short term examples include contributing to BETA Forge codebase and Maestro feature improvements
• Contribute to BETA OS: Participate as a cross-functional team member on the BETA OS project, contributing to consistent and reliable production delivery practices, shared release pipelines, and platform-wide standards that span multiple engineering teams
• **Improve IT & HelpDesk Efficiency:**Develop and maintain tooling and workflow automations that reduce manual effort for IT and HelpDesk teams, including automated ticketing integrations, onboarding/offboarding workflows, and self-service request systems (this includes continued growth and support of HelpDesk Bot)
• **Support Developer Standards:**Collaborate with Platform and Product teams to promote platform standards including coding patterns, service templates, and reusable components that drive consistency across BETA's software portfolio
• **Drive Continuous Improvement:**Identify gaps in the developer experience and proactively prototype and ship improvements that reduce friction and increase engineering velocity across the organization
