About Aviant

At Aviant, we enable autonomous package delivery by drone. After starting in the labs at MIT in 2020, Aviant has signed 25 commercial contracts in Scandinavia, flown over 8,000 flights covering more than 50,000 kilometers, built a robust team of 15 people, and taken a leading position in the European drone market. We have just launched Scandinavia’s first autonomous home delivery service with drone, called Kyte (https://kyte.delivery/). This marks Aviant as one of very few players worldwide doing autonomous home delivery by drone. Therefore, we are continually seeking enthusiastic top performers - people with a desire to work at the forefront of autonomous logistics.
