Application/Interview Process:
After applying, selected candidates will be provided with reference material on EASA SORA / UAS certification (SAIL III operations) by our hiring team.
Stage 1 is a online quiz to confirm you've reviewed the material.
Stage 2 is an in-person, proctored assessment covering the same material in more depth, without reference materials.
Stage 3 is an interview with our Global HR Manager.
Stage 4 is an interview with our Founder/CTO.
You don't need prior expertise but you do need to genuinely read and absorb the highly technical material provided, as the proctored stage will make gaps in preparation apparent. We encourage the use of AI tools to help candidates study and prepare but not as a replacement for learning.
