Work Environment
Drone engineers work in offices and may travel at times to indoor and outdoor worksites to check and test equipment. Travel may also be required for meetings. Drone engineers often work more than 40 hours per week. They work independently and on teams with other engineers, engineering technicians, and others involved in their projects. This career can be stressful, especially when under deadline pressure. Drone engineers must be able to stay focused to ensure work is delivered on time and according to standards and regulations.
