About You And The Role
As a Mechanical Hardware Reliability Engineer, you will be responsible for defining and delivering the Safety and Reliability attribute of our latest drone-delivery systems. You’ll combine deep knowledge of failure phenomena in electromechanical devices, hands-on experimentation, and statistical modeling to ensure Zipline’s latest drone-delivery platforms survive the most demanding environments on Earth.
Your work will span from early architecture decisions, like where to apply redundancy, fail-operational strategies, and fault tolerance through the definition of accelerated tests, coding reliability models, and verification methods. You’ll uncover risks early, provide data to risk-based decisions, and guide design teams with clear, actionable recommendations. In doing so, you’ll directly shape the long-term reliability and safety of Zipline’s autonomous aircraft and ground infrastructure.
