General information

Zipline, based in San Francisco, runs a drone delivery service that flies food, groceries, and medicine directly to customers. It offers same-day delivery of restaurant food, groceries, medications, and medical supplies, using its own fixed-wing drones and VTOL aircraft.

Zipline was founded in March 2014 by Keller Rinaudo Cliffton, Keenan Wyrobek, Ryan Oksenhorn, and William Hetzler. It's still a private company, having raised over $600 million in funding as of January 2026. By that same date, its drones had completed more than two million commercial deliveries and flown over 120 million miles. That matters: that flight record shows drone delivery has moved past testing and into regular, large-scale use.

Currently, there's a total of 327 job openings at Zipline. Over the last 30 days, 178 jobs were added and 104 were removed (job postings usually stay up ~22 days before being removed). Historically, the median salary is ~$191,250. Zipline is an H-1B sponsor.1
