FAA-approved drone operations management system for federal and commercial operators
Airspace Link operates as an FAA-approved UAS Service Supplier, running AirHub Portal—a Drone Operations Management System (DOMS) that integrates with federal airspace authorization systems. The tech stack reveals a cloud-native, observability-first architecture: Azure + Kubernetes for compute, Prometheus + VictoriaMetrics + Grafana for monitoring, and a polyglot backend (Node.js, .NET, Java, Go) suggesting modular service boundaries. Hiring velocity is accelerating with focus on senior engineering and product roles, while pain points cluster around federal contract scaling, platform stability, and deployment automation—indicating a transition from startup product-market fit toward enterprise/government operations.
Airspace Link develops AirHub Portal, a Drone Operations Management System (DOMS) that serves pilots, commercial operators, and government entities. As an FAA-approved UUS, the platform powers airspace safety checks and LAANC (Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability) authorizations, delivering airspace data directly from federal sources. Use cases span public safety, infrastructure inspection, drone delivery, and BVLOS (beyond-visual-line-of-sight) operations. The company holds SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications and is headquartered at Michigan Central in Detroit. Active projects focus on UTM (Unmanned Traffic Management) capabilities, federal contract pathways, CI/CD pipeline hardening, and monitoring improvements—all aligned with scaling government sales.
Airspace Link uses Azure and AWS for cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes for orchestration, React/Vue/Angular for frontend, and Node.js, .NET, Java, and Go for backend services. Monitoring relies on Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, and Grafana.
Airspace Link is headquartered in Detroit, Michigan at Michigan Central (Newlab). The company was founded in 2018 and is privately held.
