Coordinate closely with ground crew, technical staff, and event organizers to communicate flight plans, timing cues, and any other operational considerations prior, during, and after shows. Supply continuous feedback and evaluation of performance metrics to identify areas of improvement and optimization. Fly large scale drone light shows: drones using our system. Assist with drone repairs. Required Qualifications Proficient in interpreting several incoming streams of data and managing time critical activities. Able to stay focused and decisive during high pressure live operations. Basic understanding of engineering/electronics/software engineering to perform basic maintenance and troubleshooting on drones. Excellent English communication skills, both written and verbal. Proactive communication is highly valued. It's a plus if you have: Experience flying large fleets or synchronized UAS systems. Background in aviation, robotics, or live technical production. Familiarity with regulatory frameworks (FAA, EASA, GCAA, etc.). Experience working in touring or event based operations. Willing to travel up to several weekends per month, to various states/countries, and remain there for 2 3 nights and support a show. Opportunities may exist for extended periods, in the case of drone residencies. Willing to lift loads up to 20kg/44lb, work outdoors, and set up equipment. What Defines You Highly reliable, organized, and execution focused. Calm under pressure and effective in an onsite operating environment. A clear, proactive communicator who escalates issues early and appropriately. Team oriented, humble, and eager to learn. Motivated by operational excellence, consistency, and continuous improvement.

Respond in real time to system alerts, aircraft faults, or degraded conditions. Help lead load in and load out of the entire airfield and pilot system setup. Conduct pre flight checks on drones, batteries, ground infrastructure, and control systems. Assist with post flight inspections, logging, and maintenance reporting. Coordinate closely with ground crew, technical staff, and event organizers to communicate flight plans, timing cues, and any other operational considerations prior, during, and after shows. Supply continuous feedback and evaluation of performance metrics to identify areas of improvement and optimization. Fly large scale drone light shows: drones using our system. Assist with drone repairs. Required Qualifications Proficient in interpreting several incoming streams of data and managing time critical activities. Able to stay focused and decisive during high pressure live operations. Basic understanding of engineering/electronics/software engineering to perform basic maintenance and troubleshooting on drones. Excellent English communication skills, both written and verbal. Proactive communication is highly valued. It's a plus if you have: Experience flying large fleets or synchronized UAS systems. Background in aviation, robotics, or live technical production. Familiarity with regulatory frameworks (FAA, EASA, GCAA, etc.). Experience working in touring or event based operations. Willing to travel up to several weekends per month, to various states/countries, and remain there for 2 3 nights and support a show. Opportunities may exist for extended periods, in the case of drone residencies. Willing to lift loads up to 20kg/44lb, work outdoors, and set up equipment. What Defines You Highly reliable, organized, and execution focused. Calm under pressure and effective in an onsite operating environment. A clear, proactive communicator who escalates issues early and appropriately. Team oriented, humble, and eager to learn. Motivated by operational excellence, consistency, and continuous improvement. Interested in growing into increased production ownership over time.
