Pivotal is the leader in the emerging market of electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft. We design, develop, and manufacture light eVTOL aircraft and are renowned for the BlackFly, the first light eVTOL to fly manned missions and enter the consumer market.
Efficient, compact, and simple, Pivotal vehicles are designed for a wide range of consumer, public service, and defense applications. Our distinctive tilt-aircraft architecture and scalable platform have been in development, preparing to enter the market for over 10 years. We recently announced our next-generation aircraft, the Helix, planned for general release and scalable production in 2025.
Mobility is one of the most highly-valued areas of technology investment today. This is the right company, in the right space, the right strategy, at the right time. We invite you to join our amazing team and grow with us.
This year, Pivotal will be going to market with The Helix eVTOL aircraft. While we’ve recently been featured on WSJ, CNN, Fox News and several other media outlets, customers are still becoming familiar with us.
We need a storyteller to help audiences across aviation, public safety, and defense understand the people behind Pivotal.
We need a content creator capable of telling compelling, relatable narratives around a highly technical product.
We need a social savvy person who understands how to get this content and these stories seen by audiences across YouTube, IG, LI, X , FB and our website.
Given this, your role involves a strong balance of planning, creativity, and execution.
