At Matternet, we’re making access to goods as frictionless and universal as access to information. Our products enable organizations around the world to build and operate drone logistics networks for transporting goods on demand, through the air, and at a fraction of the time, cost and energy of any other transportation method used today. Our Engineering team is primarily split into product groups: Aircraft, Station, and Platform. This enables our Engineers to be focused within their project work, yet still lend a hand to overall engineering challenges as they come up. Our engineers have an opportunity to impact the direction of both our entire company and the global drone industry. If that sounds like a good fit for you, we'd love to have a conversation with you about joining our team!
