Job Description
About Odys Our mission at Odys is simple - we build safe, sustainable aircraft to cut travel time in half on the world's busiest corridors. Our flagship aircraft Alta enables travelers to skip the big-airport hassle by using city helipads and local airports to connect cities less than 1,000 miles apart (approx 40% of flights). And on average cut CO2 by 76% on tens of billions of flight miles globally.
To get there, we start with our UAV called Laila for commercial logistics, medical transport, humanitarian aid, disaster relief, and defense missions. We're deploying aircraft with launch partners (Fiji Airways, Honeywell, Aramex, US Navy) beginning in 2026 and already have firm orders for aircraft under contract.
We're a team of expert engineers from deep tech and aerospace that focus on fast iterations loops (completed transition flight faster than our peers) combined with mastery of the aircraft certification process. Previously, our team developed custom drones, brought multiple automotive platforms into production, and electrified transportation vehicles that magnetically levitate, that roll, that fly. Together, we've been learning, developing, building, testing, and preparing for this challenge our entire lives.
About the role We are seeking a Product Requirements and Market Research Intern to support the development of our internal product requirements framework and roadmap planning efforts. This role is analytical, cross-functional, and deeply integrated into real product decision-making. This is an opportunity to contribute meaningfully to a growing hardware company by working cross-functionally to support the development of a requirements flowdown process and define real product features.
Responsibilities - Collaborate with product, business development, and engineering teams to gather relevant inputs and review RFIs, government solicitations, customer communications, and meeting notes and identify explicit and implied product requirements
- Help Track and summarize recurring themes, unmet needs, and emerging patterns across market segments
- Support research and benchmarking of products and use cases within the advanced aviation landscape, synthesizing findings to inform market sizing and product planning efforts
- Organize and document customer and user requirements and feature definitions in structured internal tools
- Support maintenance and improvement of systems used to track product inputs and decisions
- Help ensure clarity, consistency, and traceability across evolving product documentation
Requirements - Currently pursuing an MBA, ideally with a background in engineering, technical product development, or user experience
- Strong analytical thinking, written and verbal communication skills, and attention to detail
- Ability to interpret complex technical and commercial documents and extract key insights
- Experience working with structured data and database tools
- Interest in early-stage hardware development, aerospace, or complex systems
