Senior Software Engineer - Mobile Platform

Job description

The Edge Experience team owns the full pilot experience on Skydio's controllers — from the radio link and video streaming pipeline all the way up to the product interfaces that operators rely on in the field. We believe in shipping incrementally, automating the critical path, and measuring what matters. Every feature we build touches real hardware, real airspace, and real missions — and we hold ourselves to the standard that our software must be reliable, performant, and intuitive enough for high-stress, high-stakes operation.

Skydio is the leading US drone company and the world leader in autonomous flight, the key technology for the future of drones and aerial mobility.

Job responsibilities

Design intuitive, high-performance operator interfaces for real-time drone control, video streaming, and mission management
Work cross-functionally with autonomy, firmware, cloud, and product teams to translate complex system capabilities into simple, reliable user experiences
Architect and build product features that bridge our C++ autonomy engine, Android application layer, and cloud services — owning the full vertical from native libraries through JNI/NDK to the Kotlin UI
Build and leverage AI-powered agentic workflows to accelerate engineering velocity — from automated testing and code generation to intelligent developer tooling
Champion the product engineer mindset: deeply understand operator needs, think end-to-end from hardware to cloud, and own outcomes — not just outputs
Mentor engineers and raise the bar on software quality, system design, and user-centric thinking
