Dreame Technology, a Chinese brand known for its robot vacuum cleaners, is actively recruiting drone experts in what is seen as a move to compete with DJI, the dominant player in the market, amid growing competition from innovative hardware start-ups.
The company is advertising at least 10 positions – including drone navigation modelling algorithm engineer, drone test pilot, drone operations sales director and business director for the pan-aviation industry – according to job postings on the recruitment platform Boss Zhipin.
The roles will be based either in Dreame’s headquarters in Suzhou, a city in eastern Jiangsu province, or the Chinese drone hub of Shenzhen in southern Guangdong province, home to a vast drone supply chain network that supports DJI and other companies.
Dreame did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Wednesday.
