Zipline is the world’s largest and most experienced drone delivery service. We are on a mission to serve all humans equally by ensuring access to food, medicine and essential goods anytime, anywhere. We design, build, and operate the world’s largest autonomous logistics system, delivering critical supplies quickly and reliably. Today, Zipline operates on four continents, makes a delivery somewhere in the world every 30 seconds, and has completed millions of deliveries to date, including blood, vaccines, medical supplies, food, and retail products.
Our customers include the world’s largest and most prominent healthcare systems, governments, retailers, restaurants and global businesses who rely on us to save lives, reduce emissions, increase economic opportunity, and provide delivery from point A to point B as fast as possible. The drone is only 15% of what we’ve built to enable seamless, reliable, global operations.
Our system strengthens supply chains, reduces congestion, and gives people time back. With more than 140 million commercial autonomous miles safely flown, Zipline is redefining access to healthcare, consumer products, and food across the globe.
We operate at a global scale and are looking for practical problem solvers who thrive on real-world challenges and rapid growth. Our team is motivated by building systems that have a direct, meaningful impact on people’s lives and by scaling the future of logistics. We are seeking people who sculpt from first principles, enjoy facing adversity, and can do the impossible at record breaking speeds.
Does working on large, integrated electro-mechanical systems—from small-scale engineering builds to full-scale production and global deployment—excite you? Do you feel driven to dive in when others say something is too difficult or impossible? Are you the “go-to” engineer when it comes to figuring out how to build and scale something that’s never been done before?
At Zipline, our work is built for the real world. Families and patients rely on us every day—there’s no room for falling short or aiming low. If you're passionate about using your engineering talent to create elegant, effective manufacturing solutions, read on.
As a Quality Engineer on our manufacturing quality team, you will ensure every vehicle leaving the line meets Zipline’s high-performance standards. You will drive the disposition of inspection findings and non conformances, lead root-cause analyses, and implement corrective actions to boost yield and production rates. You’ll define and document inspection plans, rework procedures, and supplier feedback, partnering with cross-functional teams to close quality gaps.
