Jacob Richter

As the CTO at Propeller Aero, I lead our Product and Engineering (P&E) team; a talented group of peopleI who research and build our 3D mapping platform and dirt-ready GPS hardware

As part of my role, I partner closely with the CEO, product managers, designers, engineering managers and a range of Propeller people to make sure we are researching, discovering and building the right things in the right way - delivering quality products and systems.

Propeller's people are awesome! We are genuine and caring and embody our customers in everything we do. It is a fantastic place to work where you can be yourself and make a genuine impact with our product.

I grew up on the Central Coast an hour north of Sydney, originally wanting to be a scientist 🧪 before getting a taste of the impact of the startup world. Now I live and breathe startups and have been in the space for over a decade. I love all things product and engineering and have played a pivotal role in and founded a range of startups across a number of different sectors.

Beyond my work at Propeller Aero, I am an active member of the Sydney startup scene. I'm passionate about helping aspiring entrepreneurs succeed, and I am a regular mentor and coach to those looking to get into startups. I also love and spend my home time on all things music 🎵 playing in local bands and writing and recording music.

Please share your passion - don't hold back. We want to find clever and passionate people to bring on board.
