Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 6 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Files H-1B transfers

23 transfer filings in the last year, covering 23 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • About Zipline Zipline is the world's largest and most experienced drone delivery service.
  • Today, Zipline operates on four continents, makes a delivery somewhere in the world every 30 seconds, and has completed millions of deliveries to date, including blood, vaccines, medical supplies, food, and retail products.
  • The drone is only 15% of what we've built to enable seamless, reliable, global operations.

Responsibilities

  • Challenge our assumptions and help identify portions of the design space we may have overlooked.
  • Use direct exposure to Zipline's systems and operations to develop a grounded understanding of the problem.
  • Maintain strict confidentiality regarding the project and information shared during the engagement.
  • In your own words, tell us about something you've built, solved, accomplished, or contributed to that you're particularly proud of, and why it matters to you.
  • We're less interested in polished prose than in understanding what you choose to highlight and how you think about your own work.
  • We design, build, and operate the world's largest autonomous logistics system, delivering critical supplies quickly and reliably.
  • Our team is motivated by building systems that have a direct, meaningful impact on people's lives and by scaling the future of logistics.
  • This will take the form of an intensive, highly collaborative design sprint running September 28- October 2, 2026 at Zipline's flight test facility in Half Moon Bay, California.

Requirements

  • If you like the sound of this position but are not sure if you are the perfect fit, please apply!

Company info

  • We are on a mission to serve all humans equally by ensuring access to food, medicine and essential goods anytime, anywhere.
  • We are seeking people who sculpt from first principles, enjoy facing adversity, and can do the impossible at record breaking speeds.
  • About You and The Role We are kicking off a new, highly confidential product development effort on Zipline's New Products team.
  • We are specifically looking for people with a demonstrated history of building difficult things and solving problems that initially appeared intractable.
  • Specific industry experience is less important than technical creativity, strong engineering intuition, hands-on ability, intellectual range, and a track record of turning unconventional ideas into working hardware or systems.
  • We are kicking off a new, highly confidential product development effort on Zipline's New Products team.
  • We are now embarking on another clean-sheet development effort that we believe has the potential to have a similar level of impact on the future success of the business.
  • At this earliest stage of the project, we want to bring in a very small number of exceptional external engineers, designers, builders, and creative problem-solvers to work directly alongside the core New Products team.
