COALESSA PTE. LTD. Hiring! Part Time Drone Pilot in , Earn up to SGD 4,000 - Ricebowl

The role

We're hiring a CAAS-licensed Drone Pilot to fly our façade and confined-space inspection missions — capturing high-quality visual, thermal and LiDAR data that our engineers turn into inspection reports. You'll fly high-rise façades and pilot collision-tolerant drones inside tanks and vessels, all within full CAAS and WSH compliance.

Key responsibilities

• Operate inspection drones for building façade inspections — 100% visual capture (4K + thermal) following BCA TR78 methodology.

• Pilot collision-tolerant drones (e.g. Flyability Elios 3) for confined-space inspections inside tanks, vessels, boilers and silos — no man-entry.

• Plan and execute missions: site recce, flight-path planning, pre/post-flight checks, battery and equipment management.

• Apply for and operate within CAAS Activity Permits, airspace rules and no-fly zones.

• Capture complete, high-quality imagery/LiDAR; offload and hand over data for processing.

• Comply with WSH, confined-space entry and work-at-height requirements; report incidents promptly.

• Maintain and care for drone equipment.

Requirements

Essential

• Valid CAAS Unmanned Aircraft Pilot Licence (UAPL) — Rotorcraft / multi-rotor.

• Hands-on experience operating commercial inspection drones (DJI Mavic/Flyability Elios 3 or similar).

• Precise flying in tight, GPS-denied or confined environments; strong situational awareness and a clean flying record.

• Physically fit and comfortable working at height and in enclosed/confined spaces.

• Willing to travel to sites across Singapore (and occasionally the region).

Advantageous

• Flyability Elios 3 / confined-space drone experience.

• DJI Mavic Pro / facade inspection with drone experience

• Thermal imaging, LiDAR or photogrammetry experience.

• Familiarity with BCA PFI / TR78 façade inspection.

• WSH Confined Space, Work-at-Height, bizSAFE certifications.

• Data-processing skills (Pix4D, Agisoft, Flyability Inspector).

What we offer

• Fly the latest inspection drone/ROV/LiDAR technology on real industrial and building projects.

• A hands-on role in a fast-growing niche, with training and progression.

• Competitive remuneration based on licences and experience.
