About The ePlane Company

The ePlane Company is at the forefront of India's urban air mobility revolution. Incubated at IIT Madras, we are a deep-tech startup dedicated to designing and building the world's most compact electric flying taxi. Our mission is to make door-to-door flying a reality, drastically reducing commute times and decongesting our cities for a cleaner, greener future. We're a passionate team of engineers, designers, and visionaries working on cutting-edge technology, and we're looking for brilliant minds to help us take flight.

Chart the Course for the Future of Flight

We are looking for a person with a deep understanding of Machine Learning and Reinforcement learning to develop tools that help us an organisation engineer better systems and also build the platform software that will allow the next generation of mobility to thrive. This person will develop, research, and deploy ML algorithms across different engineering disciplines and build tools for routing, scheduling future mobility transportation networks involving hundreds of aircraft in shared regions.
