About You and The Role 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. We're looking for a highly experienced and dynamic Senior Manufacturing Engineer to join our team. In this role, you'll be responsible for designing and scaling multiple in-house final assembly lines for our aircraft, zips, docks, and several critical feeder sub-assemblies. You'll ensure these lines can meet growing demand-from tens of units per week to hundreds over the next three years-while continuously driving down cost and elevating product quality. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy managing multiple new developments at once, and can quickly align teams and drive toward solutions, we'd love to hear from you.
