About The Position

Voltair builds drones that recharge directly off power lines. We are a YC-funded (W26) technology company focused on preventing wildfires by enabling continuous inspection of electric infrastructure. Our drones collect large volumes of visual and sensor data from live power lines. That data must be reviewed by people who know the grid from firsthand experience. Voltair is hiring an Inspection Data Review Contractor to support utility inspection programs across the United States. This role is focused exclusively on reviewing drone-collected inspection data and identifying infrastructure conditions that matter to utilities. This is a fully remote, desk-based role. It does not involve flying drones, field deployment, or crew management. This role requires deep, hands-on experience maintaining and repairing power utility infrastructure. Candidates without direct field experience working on distribution or transmission systems should not apply.

Requirements

• Deep, hands-on experience maintaining, repairing, or inspecting power utility assets.
• Strong familiarity with distribution infrastructure components and failure modes.
• Strong attention to detail and consistency.
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
• Ability to review imagery for extended periods.
• Reliable computer and internet access.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with annotation or structured review tools (training provided).

Responsibilities

• Review and analyze drone imagery and inspection data of electric utility poles to identify maintenance exceptions across distribution assets, including insulators, wooden structures, hardware assemblies, transformers, fuse cutouts, capacitors, tie wires, and related equipment.
• Provide feedback to engineering teams to improve review tools and workflows.
• Help refine definitions of defects, risks, and conditions utilities care about.
