The fixture must catch real connector defects without creating failures of its own.
Fast battery-pack disposition protects aircraft availability, while trusted measurements protect safety-critical release decisions.
Who you’d be doing this for
“We had ready orders at the point, then two aircraft stayed down waiting for packs that passed again later.”
Francois Dekker · Fulfillment Operations Manager
Coordinates staged orders and aircraft availability at a busy delivery site.
What is at stake
Known-good battery packs are being held after thermal-cycle resistance checks, even though bench readings remain stable. You must weigh faster pack release against confidence that the fixture still catches a real connector defect.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- test throughput vs. measurement confidence
- aircraft availability vs. defect containment
- fixture redesign vs. connector revision
- operator simplicity vs. diagnostic control
Why Zipline
Battery packs power aircraft that must remain available for on-demand deliveries across active service sites.

This is the setup. The work is inside.
Running it puts you in the room: the full situation and its constraints, stakeholders who push back in their own words, and the decisions that are yours to make. What you produce becomes a Day One Plan — work you can show someone instead of describing.
