About the job
Odys Aviation is developing safe, sustainable aircraft designed to cut travel times on high-traffic routes. The company’s flagship, Alta, helps travelers avoid major airport congestion by using city helipads and regional airports for trips under 1,000 miles. This approach aims to reduce CO2 emissions by an average of 76% across billions of flight miles.
