About You and The Role
Zipline’s delivery operations rely on ground systems that are safe, correctly installed, and available when sites need them. As a Ground Systems Journeyman Electrician, you will build and sustain the electrical and network infrastructure that supports those operations at new and operating sites. You will own field-installation quality, maintenance, and troubleshooting within published standards and procedures. Excellent work means sites are commissioned with verified installations, complete records, resolved corrective actions, and reliable systems ready for operation.
What You'll Do
• Install, configure, and commission electrical and network ground systems at new Zipline sites.
• Verify installation quality against electrical standards, construction drawings, published manuals, and SOPs before site handoff.
• Diagnose and resolve electrical, networking, and system faults affecting site installations, modifications, or availability.
• Perform maintenance and upgrades to preserve safe operation, uptime, and reliability.
• Document installations, surveys, maintenance actions, troubleshooting steps, and ticket resolutions in company systems.
• Own corrective actions within established procedures; engage engineering on issues requiring design decisions or support beyond field standards.
• Maintain accountability for tools, calibration equipment, vehicles, and site installation assets.
What You'll Bring
• Electrical trades background with hands-on experience in light commercial electrical and networking systems; electrician licensure is preferred.
• Ability to read and apply construction drawings, technical documentation, installation standards, manuals, and SOPs.
• Demonstrated safety discipline for mechanical, electrical, and automation systems; OSHA 30 is preferred.
• Experience with inventory, material handling equipment, and mechanical or electrical assembly work.
• Comfort working outdoors year-round in changing weather conditions and lifting or moving up to 55 pounds.
• Ability to support days, evenings, weekends, and other shift schedules as needed.
• Valid U.S. driver’s license and willingness to travel more than 80% during the first three months, then up to 20% as needed.
