About Merlin

We’re doing the really hard work of taking everything that’s happened in a pilot’s brain and putting that into certified software to enable an aircraft to think on its own.

I’m excited by the work we get to do every day, building airplanes that fly themselves.

Merlin is a progressive company that is rapidly, but pragmatically, innovating to transform the future of air transport. I’m honored to work alongside such passionate aviation professionals.

Safety is to aviation what a foundation is to someone building, it underpins everything we do.

Being a part of Merlin gives me the opportunity to work on products and solutions that will lead to the next evolution of technology adoption in aviation. What could be better than that?

The progression towards autonomous flight marks the next evolution in global human connectivity. In New Zealand, our renowned culture of innovation and collaboration shines through as our experts contribute to the Merlin Pilot.

I'm fortunate to lead a team at Merlin that is certifying at the forefront of aviation technology, as we pioneer the way aircraft think and fly. Underpinning the next evolution of aviation technology means setting a new standard for excellence.

It’s an inspiring time to be at Merlin as the emergence of autonomy is transforming global industries in dramatic ways and will be key to securing air superiority for our DoD partners.

We’re building a pilot that can move from different aircraft, it will continue to get smarter, learn across the way and that will in turn make the airways safer and a better place to fly.

What excites me most about working at Merlin is that we are innovating a traditional industry that so many of us rely on every day. We are solving a real need that will transform the future of aviation.
