About AEREO:

AEREO (earlier known as Aarav Unmanned Systems) is India s leading drone solution tech startup in the commercial segment. We provide end to end solutions to government and private enterprises in the field of mining metals, urban planning, large infrastructure, irrigation, agriculture and energy. We are early starters and market leaders in the Indian drone industry. Our belief is to solve real problems and use drone technology as a revolution. Our strength is our perseverance, clarity, collaborative approach, innovation and our team.

We are funded by some of the well-known Indian VCs in our growth journey so far. However, our business is already self-sustaining and growing at a fast pace. We love machines, especially aerial robots and believe that drones are shaping the future of the world. Aereo is actively looking for self-driven and process-oriented individuals who would be interested in joining team Aereo in this fascinating growth journey and be an early contributor to the drone ecosystem of the country which is growing at a very exciting and fast pace.
