Careers
Build the next generation of aerial vehicles
Grow your professional skills
Make a difference
Lead interesting projects from the beginning.
We hire people because we trust them to make our product better—and we want them to get started right away. In other words, we’re not going to bury you in busywork or meaningless bureaucracy. You’ll be hands-on from day one.
We want you to take real ownership of different features and functions of Event 38 drones. We want you to look for opportunities to do things better and then make it happen. We want you to look at a completed drone and feel proud of your contribution to it. If you like the sound of that, let’s talk.
Ample opportunity to learn new skills and grow as a professional.
We like ideas around here, and we’re always experimenting with something new. If you have an idea, we want to hear it, even if you’re not sure it’ll work. We take the Thomas Edison approach: A bad idea is just a lesson in how to not do something. As long as we learn something, it’s a net positive.
This applies to your role at Event 38 too. We’re big believers in the value of multidisciplinary team members and creating opportunities for you to learn. If you’re interested in a different job function or want to learn a new skill, we definitely want to talk about it.
Also, we’re a small team here at Event 38, and a lot of us have been around for a long time. Everyone has a say in how we operate and where we’re headed, and we want team members who care about our future. You won’t be a faceless cog here. You’ll be part of the team, and your opinion will matter.
Be part of a forthcoming industry.
Drones are a transformative technology that, over the next decade, will change in ways you likely never imagined. Although you may not spend much time thinking about the future of drones, they will have a serious impact on all of our lives. – Forbes, June 2021.
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. Drone technology is here to stay.
Working at Event 38 will put you on the frontlines of a dynamic, exciting industry: unmanned aerial systems (UAS). You can make your mark on this next evolution of technology and be part of projects that set a new precedent for how we operate as people. The work we do makes a meaningful difference in a huge variety of industries, from conservation and education to surveying and resource management. You can be proud of the impact you make by being part of the Event 38 team.
Real benefits for a sustainable career and life.
A lot of companies these days are offering fun perks, like Food Truck Fridays, nap pods, and foosball tables, to make a job more appealing than it really is. We’re not going to do that. We’d rather offer you fair pay in exchange for good work in an environment where people feel comfortable, supported, and excited to contribute. So that’s what we do.
We don’t expect you to work crazy hours or swear a blood oath to the company either. We all have lives outside of the office, and we all do our best when we can strike a healthy balance between time spent at work and time spent at home.
If you want to do really interesting projects, learn a lot on the job, work with good people, and have a little fun in the process, Event 38 is the place for you. We offer a comprehensive benefits package:
- Health insurance, including dental, vision, and prescription coverage.
- Paid vacation days.
- Paid sick days.
- Paid holidays.
We’re open to a conversation about other accommodations you might need to work here.
We’re always looking for the right people, even if we don’t have a specific role published. If we think you’ll add value to the team, we’d love to talk about bringing you onboard. To apply, send your resume to careers@event38.com
