About the job

Join Wingtra, a venture-backed robotics scaleup from ETH Zurich, where 125+ team members worldwide are building aerial robots that digitize the planet for industries like mining, construction, agriculture, and environmental monitoring.

We’re at an exciting inflection point, evolving from a drone company into the global leader in aerial insights for mapping and surveying. To make this leap, we’re expanding our software ecosystem with WingtraCLOUD, a digital platform that turns aerial data into actionable insights through intuitive web and mobile applications.

As part of this evolution, we’re looking for a Senior Fullstack Developer with strong frontend expertise in React to join our WingtraCLOUD team. You’ll help shape the future of flight planning, flight control, and data processing applications, collaborating across engineering and product, influencing architecture, and mentoring teammates as we build the next generation of Wingtra applications.
