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. Wing’s fleet of highly automated delivery drones can transport small packages directly from businesses to homes on-demand, in minutes. 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. Wing is a part of Google's parent company, Alphabet, and our mission is to create the preferred means of delivery for the planet. If you're ready to do the greatest work of your life, come join us.

  • Familiarity with safety critical systems and the policies, specifications and regulatory guidelines that define them.
  • Solid understanding of size, weight, power constraints of small UAS.
  • Demonstrated experience in the evaluation, testing, and characterization of lithium-ion batteries and Battery Management Systems (BMS).
  • Hands-on experience with lab equipment for testing and debugging power electronics, motors, and battery systems (e.g., oscilloscopes, power analyzers, dynamometers, battery cyclers).
  • Applied experience with interface technologies: CAN, USB, I2C, RS232, and ethernet
