Workforce Partnerships in Action: Joby Aviation

High-tech manufacturing is creating new career opportunities right here in Monterey County.

Joby Aviation’s expanded 435,500-square-foot pilot production facility in Marina is designed to produce up to 24 aircraft each year, bringing new jobs and opportunities to the region. The company is currently recruiting for positions that include Composite Parts Technicians, Quality Inspectors, Equipment Technicians, and more.

Behind that growth are workforce partnerships helping local residents prepare for these careers. Monterey County Works, the Monterey County Workforce Development Board, and Monterey Bay DART are working with Joby to connect residents with training and hands-on experience.

Through a six-month Advanced Manufacturing Apprenticeship, more than 70 participants have completed training, with 90% moving into full-time positions at Joby. Monterey County Works has also placed more than 23 young adults in summer internships over the past three years, giving them an opportunity to shadow technicians and gain exposure to aerospace manufacturing and logistics.

This is workforce development in action: bringing employers, training partners, and local talent together to create pathways to growing careers.

The Housing Authority of the County of Monterey would like to give a special shoutout to Carmonas BBQ Deli and Johnny Carmona for their continued support of our HACM family. Over the years, they have catered many of our holiday events, providing incredible food and exceptional service to our staff.

What we appreciate most is not just the quality of the food, but the way Johnny and his team treat everyone like family. Their commitment to customer service, community, and bringing people together is what makes them such a valued part of Monterey County.

Thank you, Carmona’s, for always taking such great care of the HACM staff. We are proud to support a local business that invests so much in our community, and we're happy to see your story and success being recognized in the newspaper. Congratulations on the well-deserved spotlight! 👏🎉
