Based in Nigeria, not fully remote. The employer names a city in Nigeria but not the work setup. Plan for office days and confirm in the interview.
Read from the listing itself, not guessed. “Remote” does not always mean any country, so confirm with the recruiter.
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.
You are an analytical, engineering-focused professional with strong technical problem-solving skills and a passion for aerospace operations. As a Flight Technician, you form part of the technical core of Zipline’s Flight Operations team.

You are directly responsible for drone (Zip) and launch facility (DC) maintenance, flight controlling, and engineering support. Combining your engineering background with hands-on operational capability, you ensure our aircraft and launch systems operate at peak reliability while stepping in to support flight line operations during peak demand.
