This may include preflighting and launching aircraft, doing repair and maintenance work on aircraft and ground systems, and performing tests on new hardware and software. The flight test team conducts scaled operations at a primary test facility, but performs targeted testing at several other locations in Northern California. This role reports directly to the Head of Test Sites as the team works together to ensure the success of all of our stakeholders and our electrical site infrastructure. As a member of this team, you will play a crucial role in managing and coordinating various aspects of the electrical site infrastructure. The primary responsibility is to ensure the smooth and efficient functioning of the workplace by overseeing electrical installations and upgrades, maintenance, operations, security, and services. About You and The Role As the Lead Electrician, you will have the important responsibility of serving as the point of contact for all electrical site infrastructure including upgrades, repairs, maintenance activities, renovations, and vendor oversight at Zipline's flight test locations. You will be based out of Zipline's primary test facility, but support several other small scale test locations through the Northern California region with intermittent travel to other sites. You will be performing electrical installation, construction and upgrade works personally in accordance with all relevant standards and codes, and manage subcontractors performing similar works ensuring a high standard for quality, cost and workmanship. Additionally you will be responsible for conducting regular inspections to identify potential maintenance needs and recommend necessary improvements.

This includes anywhere from a well-developed test site, to a rugged unimproved area requiring off-road vehicles and hiking on steep terrain. Collaborate with vendors, contractors, and maintenance staff to address electrical related issues promptly ensuring quality delivered service. Brainstorm and execute site expansion projects such as the construction of mock buildings and backyards, test support buildings, observation towers, and expansion of utilities on-site with ownership of the electrical components of such projects. Coordinate site safety reviews and activities for the Facilities Team. Maintain records of maintenance activities, including service contracts, warranties, and inspection reports. Conduct regular inspections to identify potential maintenance needs and recommend necessary improvements. Communicate with teams to understand their evolving needs and space requirements while proposing strategic solutions. Ensure compliance with local, state, and federal health and safety regulations.

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years. Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp . How do you know if you have a disability? A disability is a condition that substantially limits one or more of your "major life activities." If you have or have ever had such a condition, you are a person with a disability.
