About Zipline  Do you want to change the world? Zipline is on a mission to transform the way goods move. Our aim is to solve the world’s most urgent and complex access challenges by building, manufacturing and operating the first instant delivery and logistics system that serves all humans equally, wherever they are. From powering Rwanda’s national blood delivery network and Ghana’s COVID-19 vaccine distribution, to providing on-demand home delivery for Walmart, to enabling healthcare providers to bring care directly to U.S. homes, we are transforming the way things move for businesses, governments and consumers.  The technology is complex but the idea is simple: a teleportation service that delivers what you need, when you need it. Through our technology that includes robotics and autonomy, we are decarbonizing delivery, decreasing road congestion, and reducing fossil fuel consumption and air pollution, while providing equitable access to billions of people and building a more resilient global supply chain.    About the Role: The Ground System Deployments team is looking for an innovative, collaborative and self-driven Deployment Engineer to join the team to ensure the successful deployment of Ziplines Ground Systems in all possible applications by designing and deploying SCADA and auxiliary components to support our projects - RTK navigation systems, remote monitoring camera systems, high availability and low cost data and networking solutions, automated response systems, automated site camera systems and other such technologies.    This role is well suited to engineers with broad, solid fundamentals and a design background looking to step into a systems / projects / implementation role where they will be able to use their design skills to tackle first-of-kind problems with the Ground Systems products and infrastructure.
