Experience
Senior Vice President of Engineering
Sep 2017 — Present · Austin, TX, US
DroneSense is a Austin startup building software to help fire departments and first responders save lives using drones. Our products help ensure the safety of first responders by making sure they have a great view of the situation they\'re heading into before they hit the ground.We help drone pilots manually and autonomously fly their drones, collaborate with Incident Commanders and other pilots, and share in real-time the critical video needed to allow the best life-saving decisions to be made.We help Incident Commanders identify waypoints and search areas, view live drone video, and strategically coordinate all the responders at the scene.To make sure each drone and each pilot are always at their peak performance and always ready for the next incident, we automatically manage all the maintenance, certification, and reporting aspects of each drone, pilot, and flight.
