Propeller Tech Stack

Drone survey platform for construction, mining, and quarrying operations

Software Development Surry Hills, NSW 201–500 employees Founded 2014 Privately Held

Propeller combines drone imagery, GIS, and survey data into a worksite management platform used across 40,000 sites in 120+ countries. The tech stack reveals a dual focus: React/TypeScript/React Native for mobile-first user experience, plus Python/Node.js/AWS for backend data processing at scale. Active hiring is engineering-heavy (8 of 14 roles) at senior levels, paired with infrastructure projects (Kubernetes, Terraform, on-premise server expansion, petabyte-scale data handling) — a signal the company is scaling operational infrastructure to support geographic expansion and larger customer deployments.
