Job Description:
What is JetZero? -Today's aircraft contribute around 2.5% of
global CO2 emissions, equivalent to the emissions of 200 million
cars. This is only going to increase: Air travel is forecasted to
double by 2050, while meaningful efficiency gains using current
airplanes have hit a wall. - -JetZero is developing a blended wing
aircraft. It uses 50% less fuel and can accommodate zero-emission
hydrogen propulsion. JetZero is the inevitable solution to
sustainable air travel. - -The JetZero team - -We are experienced
aerospace professionals and engineers, excited about the future.
