Careers that Split the Atom
Careers at Atomic UAS
At Atomic UAS, we offer career opportunities that match your passion and talent. Join us as an in-person Part 107 instructor and help shape future drone pilots.
Group speaking not your thing. That’s fine because you can also become an in-person flight training instructor and help students achieve their dreams of flying.
Both roles are contract and work around your schedule.
Just understand that we are in the beginning stages of building our hands on flight training network, so it may take a few months before we’re off the ground (pun intended).
