Kitemaps Aerial Mapping Services operates Redwing, a Bengaluru-based aerospace and drone-logistics company that designs, manufactures and operates autonomous drones for time-sensitive delivery. Its aircraft support healthcare, logistics, food and agricultural use cases, with systems designed for long-range and beyond-visual-line-of-sight operations. Redwing's current portfolio includes multiple delivery aircraft and software for coordinating orders, flight operations and proof of delivery. The company has deployed healthcare drone networks in difficult-to-reach regions and works with governments, development organizations and logistics partners. Its Andhra Pradesh healthcare network with UPS has completed thousands of flights and transported medicines, diagnostic samples and other medical supplies to remote facilities.
Redwing offers candidates the chance to work on autonomous aircraft, flight software and logistics systems that are already deployed in demanding real-world environments. Its Andhra Pradesh healthcare network with UPS has completed more than 2,000 flights and transported over 83,000 medical products, giving engineering and operations teams exposure to production-scale BVLOS drone logistics rather than only prototypes. The company has been backed by Techstars, ITI Growth Opportunities Fund, Beyond Capital and Seafund, and its acquisition of Aerit's assets added European drone-delivery and routing expertise. With a relatively small team, roles can provide broad ownership, although candidates should expect the technical, regulatory and operational demands typical of an early-stage aerospace company.
