## Job description

## About Airbound

Our mission is to make a world where everyone has access to delivery. Where goods move as freely as information moves today. This is possible. Today the cost of moving on a scooter is ₹2/km. That’s the cost of moving a 150kg mass from point A to B. We’re bringing that mass down to less than 5kgs, concurrently bringing the cost down to 10 paise/km. This is how we make deliveries a reality. This is how we create a world where we’re doing billions of deliveries per day. The tech is not there. The current cost of drone delivery is ₹100/km. We need to completely redefine the way things are done here. We’re building the world’s most efficient aircraft from the ground-up, and scaling that up to beyond anything the aerospace sector has ever seen. This cannot be an iterative process. We have to tear down all conventions and build everything up from scratch. To do this, we need nothing less than the best engineers. The ones who care about building something fundamentally different, who are deeply curious about understanding the fundamentals of everything they’re working on, who are dreamers that believe in the impossible.

## About the Role

Airbound is looking for a structured, detail-oriented and proactive intern to help build and implement the systems, dashboards and processes required to support its growing Admin & Operations function.

- Reporting & Analysis: Develop weekly and monthly reports on request volumes, turnaround times, pending tasks, delays and utilisation of completed deliverables
- Process Improvement: Identify gaps, improve existing trackers and recommend ways to reduce missed follow-ups and last-minute execution issues

## About Airbound

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Airbound is building the world’s most efficient zero-infrastructure delivery drones, using a proprietary blended wing body tailsitter design to slash logistics costs and enable delivery where roads don’t exist.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Seed VC – III stage)
- **Headquarters**: Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
- **Founded**: 2020
- **Founders**: Naman Pushp

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Drone delivery / logistics technology; Aviation and Aerospace Component Manufacturing
- **Target customers**: B2B — primarily serving healthcare (rural blood/supply delivery), e-commerce, and enterprise logistics providers
- **Mission**: “Make logistics invisible, affordable, and universal” — enabling instant, affordable, and reliable delivery across cities, villages, and the last untamed mile

## Products & Services
- **TRT (Tailsitter) Drone**: A blended wing body tailsitter that launches vertically like a rocket and transitions to high-efficiency fixed-wing flight. Key specs: ~40km range, 1kg payload, 60km/hr cruise speed, 60dB noise level, 12:1 lift-to-drag ratio. Requires zero infrastructure (no runways, no charging pads, no ground crew). Built with proprietary carbon fiber composites.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Total Funding**: $10.5M (across 4 rounds)
- **Last Raised**: $8.65M Seed VC – III (led by Lachy Groom, November 2024)
- **Notable Investors**: Lightspeed, Lachy Groom, Humba Ventures, Lightspeed India Partners, gradCapital, Draper Startup House Accelerator
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew 265% year-over-year (now ~61 employees); active job postings up 800% year-over-year; has filed at least 1 patent for blended wing body tailsitter UAV; expanding operations across India with focus on healthcare and e-commerce delivery missions

## Competitive Advantages
- **Proprietary blended wing body tailsitter architecture** — combines VTOL flexibility with fixed-wing efficiency (4x aerodynamic efficiency vs. conventional crafts)
- **Zero infrastructure requirement** — no runways, launchpads, or ground crew needed; drones land and launch anywhere
- **Obsessive weight engineering** — custom carbon fiber composites and in-house power delivery modules reduce weight to the gram
- **India-first engineering & manufacturing** — designed, built, and tested in India, optimized for India’s toughest weather and terrain

## Strategic Focus
- Scaling operations to serve rural healthcare (blood and critical supply delivery) and e-commerce logistics
- Expanding autonomous navigation and precision landing capabilities for real-world weather and terrain
- Building a “borderless supply chain” — moving from healthcare to broader logistics verticals
- Continuing to reduce drone weight and cost to achieve sub-$0.05 delivery economics

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as “obsessive engineering” — the team rejects parts that are 3g overweight and develops novel manufacturing processes. Emphasis on rapid prototyping and direct work with flight tests and hardware.
- **Work environment**: Hands-on hardware development; full lab access; flight test mentorship; rapid prototyping budget
- **Remote/hybrid**: Likely on-site given hardware focus (Bengaluru HQ)
- **Growth trajectory**: 265% headcount growth in one year, massive hiring surge (9 open roles as of recent data) — early-stage opportunity to shape a high-growth hardware company
- **Notable perks**: Competitive equity, full lab access, rapid prototyping budget, flight test mentorship
