Role Overview

The UAV Operator (Flight Mission Planner) is responsible for planning, configuring, monitoring, and executing Precision AI’s UAV missions through the Ground Control Station (GCS). Working in close coordination with the External Pilot (PIC), you will manage ArduPilot–based flight plans, system health, telemetry, and in-mission adjustments to ensure safe, precise, and efficient spray operations. The UAV Operator plays a critical role in mission success by combining strong software proficiency with operational judgment and tight team communication.

This role is based in Calgary, AB, with a flexible hybrid schedule that includes office work, remote coordination, and frequent travel for both spray operations and testing. Comfort traveling to the US for extended periods of time (2-4 weeks) as well as a valid Canadian passport are required.

Systems, Equipment & Readiness Configure and verify GCS hardware, radios, antennas, and software prior to missions Conduct pre- and post-flight system checks and log anomalies or performance issues Assist with UAV setup, calibration, payload configuration, and teardown Support testing and integration of new aircraft configurations, payloads, and software updates

Team Collaboration & Communication Maintain clear, calm, and precise communication during live missions Provide structured feedback on mission performance, system behavior, and process improvements Work closely with engineering, flight ops, and training teams to improve reliability and repeatability Contribute to a team culture built on trust, discipline, and shared responsibility for safety

Relevant Experience

Strong hands-on experience with ArduPilot Prior experience operating a Ground Control Station for UAV or autonomous aircraft Experience monitoring and interpreting telemetry, logs, and system diagnostics Experience with data analysis, log uploads, and flight data administration

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
