Rotor is a startup based in Nashua, NH that is revolutionizing how aircraft are piloted. We are building autonomous full-scale helicopters designed to make helicopters and other VTOLs radically safer and more accessible.
We’re a 40+ person team that successfully flew our first prototype helicopter in 2022 and are currently working on a 4-seat helicopter platform based on the Robinson R44 that can carry 1,000 lbs of payload for over 3 hours. Our first product, the R550, will initially be deployed in 2024 for agricultural crop dusting applications.
Our team has built flight controls, communications, and software technology that gives pilots better situational awareness than the cockpit, enabling operations at night and in low visibility and preventing accidents caused by pilot disorientation and human error.
About the Role
We are looking to hire an Aircraft Sheet Metal Technician to work with our existing team of mechanics and technicians on converting Robinson R44 helicopters to teleoperations. This is a great role for anyone working in aviation who is interested in building a product from the ground up.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain experimental helicopters at our facility in Nashua.
- Work with mechanical and electrical engineers to perform modifications to prototype airframes.
- Maintain all tools and material inventories in a clean, organized, and efficient manner.
