Senior Software Engineer, Cloud Video Streaming (WebRTC / LiveKit)

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer specializing in WebRTC and cloud live video streaming to own the real-time media and data stack powering Skydio Remote Flight Deck (RFD), ReadyLink, and our Commands. Remote pilots and mission commanders rely on our browser and mobile clients to fly drones and view live feeds from anywhere — where every millisecond of latency and dropped frame matters.

You will focus on the cloud node ↔ LiveKit SFU ↔ browser/client media and data plane. Vehicles stream video and telemetry over multi-path links to cloud ingest nodes, which fuse streams, embed capture metadata, and publish tracks and control channels into LiveKit. On the browser side — including our 3D Cockpit — we bypass Chrome's standard WebRTC decode flow to run custom WebCodecs decode and frame-accurate telemetry sync pipelines.
