About This Critical Support to the Flight Test Team
The Flight Test team has the critical task of testing the new and existing systems we build and operate in order to ensure that we are developing safe and reliable systems. 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.

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.

- Coordinate and schedule routine maintenance activities, repairs, and renovations at Zipline testing facilities. Most work on the site is performed outdoors in whatever seasonal weather is occurring at the time. 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.
