About Wing:

Wing is reshaping the future of delivery. We are an on-demand drone delivery service that can deliver food, medicine or other items within minutes. We’ve also developed an unmanned traffic management platform to safely route drones through the sky. Our service is faster, safer and produces far less pollution than traditional delivery. Originally created in 2012 within X, the Moonshot Factory, Wing is now an Alphabet company.

• Act as an agent of change, continually helping your partners and stakeholders find clarity and reinvent processes as the business scales 
• Own and manage goal-setting for a given team unit, helping to evaluate success criteria and to facilitate estimation and prioritization
