Help set up, calibrate and maintain drone equipment and payloads
Capture and manage data/imagery for inspections, surveys and 3D scanning
Follow safety procedures and site-specific requirements across a variety of settings
Communicate directly with clients on straightforward jobs where required
Travel to project sites across Queensland and occasionally interstate
