Property intelligence is reshaping how the world understands the built environment, and Nearmap is driving that. Backed by Space Capital.
About the role
As our Aerial Systems Engineer, you're the technical backbone of Nearmap's aerial capture operation in North America. You keep the cameras, sensors, and onboard systems that make our imagery possible running at full strength - installing and configuring equipment, troubleshooting issues in the field and in the shop, and making sure every aircraft in the fleet is ready to fly.
What they're looking for
- Hands-on problem solver, just as comfortable with a soldering iron as a spreadsheet
- Calm under pressure, especially when a sensor goes down mid-mission
- Self-directed - you don't need someone looking over your shoulder to get it right
- Clear communicator who can translate technical issues for a non-technical audience
- Genuinely curious about new technology and how to make systems better
- Takes feedback and turns it into changed practice
More about this role
As our Aerial Systems Engineer, you're the technical backbone of Nearmap's aerial capture operation in North America. You keep the cameras, sensors, and onboard systems that make our imagery possible running at full strength - installing and configuring equipment, troubleshooting issues in the field and in the shop, and making sure every aircraft in the fleet is ready to fly. You're the first call when a pilot hits a sensor problem, the person keeping parts and inventory moving where they're needed, and the one turning hard-won field lessons into documentation the whole team can use. If you like hands-on problem-solving, thrive under real production pressure, and want your work to directly keep a national capture operation flying, we want to talk to you.
- Install, configure, maintain, and repair aerial camera systems and related hardware/software in aircraft — including preventive maintenance, part replacement, and post-repair testing to minimize production downtime.
- Provide first-level technical support for aerial system issues in production — troubleshooting with pilots and operators, reviewing Pilot Daily Reports, and documenting cases in Jira through to resolution.
