If you're applying: Most roles are on-site at Alameda HQ, and flight operations and hardware are the largest groups. Check the fit lines against each posting's listed requirements before applying. The four remote roles are three Brazil roles and one US business development role.
If you're selling or recruiting: Brazil has three roles across sales, flight operations and maintenance, and the Senior Account Executive posting asks for fluency in Portuguese. There is also a US crop protection business development role. Manufacturing has five open roles at Alameda HQ. The Head of Supply Chain role is still open, and its posting names Odoo ERP and supplier negotiation, so purchasing processes may be taking shape; outreach may land better once that role is filled.
