Job description

Drone Assembly & Field Technician – DMR Drones | Lafayette, LA Drone Manufacturing | Mechanical Assembly | Electrical | Field Service | Made in Louisiana

$13–$20/hr | Starting at 30 hrs | Full-Time (40 hrs) Within 30 Days | Benefits Eligible

Who We Are

DMR Technologies is a fast-growing American drone manufacturer based in Lafayette, LA — building advanced agricultural spray and commercial mapping drones (the X50 & D313) right here in the U.S. We're pioneering processes, scaling fast, and looking for hands-on problem solvers to grow with us.
The Role

You'll assemble, service, test, and repair professional drones in our air-conditioned shop — and eventually in the field. Think precision assembly (closer to iPhone repair than shipbuilding) — small screwdrivers, allen wrenches, carbon fiber tubing, motors, nozzles, and basic wiring. These positions start at 30 hours and move to full-time 40 hours within 30 days.
No drone experience required. Mechanical aptitude is everything.

What You'll Do

  • Assemble drone components following work instructions, diagrams, and video guides
  • Install mechanical systems: hoses, nozzles, CF tubing, motors, lightweight structures (~70%)
  • Run basic wiring and electrical connections per print (~30%)
  • Perform routine service, inspections (15-point), nozzle replacements, and consumables
  • Troubleshoot and repair mechanical/electrical issues — shop & field
  • Potentially fly, diagnose, and test drones as skills develop
You're a Strong Fit If You Have:

  • Any hands-on mechanical or electrical background (HVAC, auto, electronics, military, construction — anything counts)
  • Ability to follow technical instructions and work independently
  • Curiosity, problem-solving mindset, and comfort figuring things out
  • Reliable, detail-oriented, team-first attitude
Bonus Points:

  • Drone or RC aircraft experience / FAA Part 107 license
  • Bilingual (English/Spanish)
  • Willingness to travel 15–30%
  • Basic computer skills / comfort with digital tools
Why DMR?

  • Ground-floor opportunity at a funded drone startup with serious growth trajectory
  • Clear path: Shop Tech → Field Technician → advanced roles as we scale
  • Work on real, cutting-edge American-made technology
  • Health, Dental & Vision insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Air-conditioned shop (Louisiana summers — you're welcome)
Apply now — we're moving fast. Prior drone assembly experience is NOT required. If you can build it, fix it, and figure it out — we want to talk.
