Skydio is looking to solve the problem of maintaining and understanding critical infrastructure through autonomous flight and drone technology, by developing intuitive and high-performance web applications for inspection, mapping, and patrol operations.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience building and shipping customer-facing frontend applications.
- Strong expertise in modern web development (React, TypeScript, GraphQL, WebGL/Three.js).
- Proven ability to design systems that scale for performance, reliability, and usability.
- Experience working with geospatial data visualization (Mapbox, Cesium, or similar).
- Familiarity with photogrammetry, scanning, mapping, or rendering pipelines.
- Experience integrating frontend with cloud-based services (AWS, Temporal, Kubernetes).
- Exposure to autonomy or robotics platforms.
Responsibilities
- Lead development of frontend experiences for mission planning, scheduling, execution inspection workflows, and complex mapping workflows.
- Deliver high-performance visualization tools for 3D rendering, flight planning and geospatial data exploration of images, video, 3d and 2d objects.
- Integrate inspection workflows, enabling customers to define, track, and inspect critical infrastructure through interactive visual interfaces.
- Collaborate across autonomy, backend, and product teams to design features that are robust, reliable, and responsive to real-world field needs.
- Innovate on user experience, combining intuitive design with high technical performance to simplify complex drone operations.
- Build intuitive, high-performance web applications that enable operators to plan and execute advanced missions, visualize rich 3D reconstructions, and seamlessly interact with massive spatial datasets.
- Design interfaces that support simultaneous and even unsupervised missions, pushing the boundaries of autonomy and turning fleets of drones into reliable infrastructure in their own right.
Other
- Strong product intuition and empathy for end-users operating in high-stakes environments.
- Demonstrated experience working across teams to deliver complex, integrated features from concept to production.
- Paid vacation time, sick leave, holiday pay and 401K savings plan.
- Relocation assistance may also be provided for eligible roles.
- Group health insurance plans.
