Upward Trajectory
Q : How would you describe the nature of the work that you do at BETA Technologies ?
A : My job is to help other team members in any way that I can . If someone needs something done in a hurry , I ’ m going to do everything within my power to make it happen . Even if they are a skilled machinist , I will help them make the most of the tools that we have at our disposal . I step in whenever I am needed to help minimize cost and maximize production . For example , I ’ m currently working in the hangar and putting flight controls into an aircraft . Earlier today , five team members came into my workshop . They all needed to know where different tools were . I ’ ve developed considerable flexibility and mental agility over the course of my career , so I ’ m able to help our team members effectively navigate their challenges and succeed in completing their tasks .
Q : What are the best things about working at BETA Technologies ?
A : Working at BETA now gives me the same feeling I had when I first started working at Burton in the mid-1990s . There is an energetic crew of dedicated , passionate , and smart team members here at BETA , and we are led by people who are determined to bring their dreams into reality . Working for Burton was a fantastic experience , and working for BETA Technologies is equally rewarding . Jake Burton and Kyle Clark have a very similar energy , and Kyle ’ s visionary thinking and tireless work ethic closely parallel the leadership qualities that Jake brought to Burton . It feels amazing to work with people who believe in what they are trying to accomplish , and I feel very empowered working here .
Q : What do you love most about living in Vermont ?
A : There are more reasons to love Vermont than I can count . Ever since I first drove across the border into Vermont , I ’ ve felt like I ’ m at home here . People in Vermont are open to cooperating with others regardless of their differences , and Vermonters are also very independentlyminded . I think that ’ s why there are so many successful entrepreneurs in Vermont . People have the drive to make things happen here , and they have the vision to match that drive . Here at BETA , we really believe that we can make the world a better place , and we also believe that work can be done in Vermont . We work together as a team and apply our skills and our passion on a daily basis , and the results are truly incredible to see .
