About The Position

Flock Safety is seeking a Field Deployment Specialist to support the nationwide deployment of our Drone as a First Responder (DFR) program. This is a highly travel-intensive, field-based role focused on installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting DFR systems across the U.S. You will work closely with internal teams and public safety customers to ensure successful, consistent deployments at scale. This is not a drone pilot role. This position is focused on infrastructure deployment, installation, and system support rather than operating drones. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, adaptable, and comfortable operating independently in dynamic field environments.
