This is possible. Today the cost of moving on a scooter is ₹2/km. That’s the cost of moving a 150kg mass from point A to B. We’re bringing that mass down to less than 5kgs, concurrently bringing the cost down to 10 paise/km. This is how we make deliveries a reality. This is how we create a world where we’re doing billions of deliveries per day.
The tech is not there. The current cost of drone delivery is ₹100/km. We need to completely redefine the way things are done here. We’re building the world’s most efficient aircraft from the ground-up, and scaling that up to beyond anything the aerospace sector has ever seen. This cannot be an iterative process. We have to tear down all conventions and build everything up from scratch.
To do this, we need nothing less than the best engineers. The who care about building something fundamentally different, who are deeply curious about understanding the fundamentals of everything they’re working on, who are dreamers that believe in the impossible.
The hardware on the drone is half of what keeps it up in the air. The rest is the software both on the craft and on our ground station. Our unique dual motor thrust vectored tailsitter with blended wing body design has to fly in almost all weather-including heavy winds and light rains autonomously. We're targeting 1000s of flights per day across all locations, requiring us to rethink everything from firmware, controls, state estimation to even ground control and fleet management software. We've achieved an industry-leading payload-to-weight ratio of ~2kg drone for 1kg payload and we're pushing this even further. Every gram matters when you're revolutionizing logistics. This is where cutting-edge aerospace engineering meets software scalability meets real-world impact. If you get excited about solving problems that span multiple disciplines that don't have textbook solutions, this is your playground.
In this critical, hands-on engineering role, you will architect and deliver the complete avionics hardware stack that powers our revolutionary aircraft. You will own the entire hardware lifecycle from system architecture and EMI/EMC-compliant PCB design to vendor management and high-volume manufacturing with EMS partners, ensuring every board meets the rigorous demands of autonomous flight operations.
5+ years in hardware/avionics engineering with a proven track record in complex embedded systems, preferably in aerospace, robotics, automotive, or high-reliability applications. Demonstrated experience scaling custom hardware from prototype to volume production (1000+ units)
PCB Design & Development: Expert-level proficiency in schematic capture and PCB layout using tools like Altium Designer, KiCAD, or Cadence Allegro. Strong understanding of high-speed digital design, mixed-signal layouts, multi-layer stackup design, and design for manufacturing (DFM) principles
Power Electronics Expertise:
Embedded Systems & Integration:
EMI/EMC & Compliance:
RF Systems (Basic to Intermediate):
Manufacturing & Production:
