Dropbox Sales and Project Engineer

About You and The Role 

Zipline is expanding the ground systems and site infrastructure that enable autonomous delivery, including Offsite Charging sites and the Zipping Point autonomous loading system. You will own the technical path from customer solution design through permitting, construction, commissioning, and initial operation.

This role sits where customer needs, site realities, product design, and regulatory approvals meet. You will make practical tradeoffs across parallel deployments, resolve roadblocks, and turn field learning into product changes that make future rollouts simpler and faster.

What You'll Do 

• Lead technical sales and site solution design with customers, producing layouts, technical documents, specifications, and cut sheets for new and existing infrastructure.
• Own site delivery from initial evaluation through construction, commissioning, and initial operation, coordinating internal teams, customers, contractors, and installation partners.
• Develop preconstruction strategies and secure entitlements, permits, inspections, and approvals with jurisdictions, utilities, planning bodies, and Authorities Having Jurisdiction.
• Manage parallel site infrastructure and light-commercial construction projects, identifying and mitigating preconstruction, construction, operational, and sustaining risks.
• Source, bid, evaluate, and manage general contractors and subcontractors across construction, assembly, and electrical trades while balancing quality, reliability, schedule, and lean budgets.
• Translate deployment constraints and customer feedback into prioritized product changes with engineering and business teams to accelerate future Ground Systems rollouts.
