The Drone Pilot is responsible for planning, executing, and documenting daily drone flights on a hyperscale data center project using Skydio autonomous drone platforms, capturing progress imagery, site documentation, and reality capture data.
Responsibilities
Plan and execute daily drone flights using Skydio drones (including autonomous and scheduled missions) to capture site progress, aerial photography, video, and reality capture data across the project site.
Ensure all scheduled flights are completed each day; track flight completion against the established flight plan and promptly communicate and reschedule any missed or weather-delayed missions.
Upload, process, and organize all captured flight data daily to Skydio Cloud and the designated project platforms (e.g., Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud).
Develop and maintain repeatable flight paths and capture locations so that progress imagery is consistent and comparable over the life of the project.
Perform pre-flight and post-flight inspections, maintain detailed flight logs, and manage batteries, firmware updates, and docking stations.
Requirements
High school diploma or equivalent
Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Surveying, Geomatics, Engineering, or a related field preferred
Nice to have: experience on large commercial, industrial, or mission critical construction sites
Nice to have: Skydio drones (e.g., Skydio X10, Skydio Dock)
Oversee and manage LiDAR and UAS projects from initiation to completion. Identify new business opportunities, develop proposals, and build and maintenance client relations.
Responsibilities
Oversee and manage LiDAR and UAS projects from initiation to completion
