Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Own component development qualification and industrialization activities at suppliers to scale manufacturing footprints. Lead supplier process development, launch readiness, and improvements in scalability, cost, and quality.

Zipline is the world’s largest and most experienced drone delivery service. We are on a mission to serve all humans equally by ensuring access to food, medicine and essential goods anytime, anywhere. We design, build, and operate the world’s largest autonomous logistics system, delivering critical supplies quickly and reliably. Today, Zipline operates on four continents, makes a delivery somewhere in the world every 30 seconds, and has completed millions of deliveries to date, including blood, vaccines, medical supplies, food, and retail products.
Our customers include the world’s largest and most prominent healthcare systems, governments, retailers, restaurants and global businesses who rely on us to save lives, reduce emissions, increase economic opportunity, and provide delivery from point A to point B as fast as possible. The drone is only 15% of what we’ve built to enable seamless, reliable, global operations.
Our system strengthens supply chains, reduces congestion, and gives people time back. With more than 140 million commercial autonomous miles safely flown, Zipline is redefining access to healthcare, consumer products, and food across the globe.
We operate at a global scale and are looking for practical problem solvers who thrive on real-world challenges and rapid growth. Our team is motivated by building systems that have a direct, meaningful impact on people’s lives and by scaling the future of logistics. We are seeking people who sculpt from first principles, enjoy facing adversity, and can do the impossible at record breaking speeds.
Does the prospect of a society-altering challenge - transitioning a first-of-its-kind autonomous robotic system from prototype to volume manufacturing - sound like the type of work that gets you out of bed in the morning? Can you cut through the fog of multiple, competing priorities to focus on the most critical steps required to accomplish both immediate and long-term goals? Are you undeterred by the authority and responsibility that comes with a critical leadership position? If this excites you, you’re who we’re looking for!
This is an in-person role based out of our HQ in South San Francisco requiring 40-60% traveling to and managing critical partners in Asia and North America.
In this highly visible role, you will own component development qualification activities at suppliers and interact with Engineering, Strategic Sourcing, Integrated Planning, and Manufacturing Operations teams to scale Zipline’s manufacturing footprint.
Major Bonuses
This role will require travel 30-60% of the time to critical external partners.
The starting cash range for this role is $120,000 - $247,000. Please note that this is a target, starting cash range for a candidate who meets the minimum qualifications for this role. The final cash pay for this role will depend on a variety of factors, including a specific candidate's experience, qualifications, skills, working location, and projected impact. The total compensation package for this role may also include: equity compensation; discretionary annual or performance bonuses; sales incentives; benefits such as medical, dental and vision insurance; paid time off; and more.

Zipline was founded to create the first logistics system that serves all humans equally. Our aim is to solve the world’s most urgent and complex access challenges. Leveraging expertise in robotics and autonomy, Zipline designs, manufactures and operates the world’s largest automated delivery system. Zipline serves tens of millions of people around the world and is making good on the promise of building an equitable and more resilient global supply chain. From powering Rwanda’s national blood delivery network and Ghana’s COVID-19 vaccine distribution, to providing on-demand home delivery for Walmart and enabling leading healthcare providers to bring care into the home in the United States, Zipline is transforming the way goods move. By transitioning to clean, electric, instant logistics, we can decarbonize delivery, decrease road congestion, and reduce fossil fuel consumption and air pollution, while providing equitable access for billions of people. The technology is complex but the idea is simple: a teleportation service that delivers what you need, when you need it. Zipline is inspiring people, governments, and businesses to imagine what is possible when goods can move as seamlessly as information.
