About Wing:
Wing offers drone delivery as a safe, fast, and sustainable solution for last mile logistics. Consumer appetites for on-demand services are increasing, but current delivery methods are inefficient, costly, and contribute to road accidents and air pollution.

We design, build, and operate our aircraft, and offer drone delivery services on two continents. Our technology is designed to be easy to integrate into existing delivery and logistics networks, offering a scalable drone delivery solution for a broad range of businesses.

About the Role:
Wing is looking for a Staff Software Engineer, Operations Research to join our Delivery Network team. This role is hybrid based in Palo Alto, CA.
As a Staff Software Engineer, Operations Research, you will own the mathematical foundation of our delivery network. Moving physical goods through the sky autonomously introduces dynamic constraints: battery conditions, real-time weather patterns, airspace de-confliction, and shifting marketplace demand.
You will dive into a wealth of flight and logistics data, using advanced optimization techniques to maximize value for our consumers, our partners, and our fleet. You will exercise independent judgment to define our technical roadmap and bridge the gap between abstract mathematical models and our production environment. You will leverage advanced solvers and simulations to build solutions that scale with Wing's business.
