- Prior work at a growth-stage start-up. Skydio is growing fast enough that you’ll need to know when to use an existing rule book, as well as when you should burn the existing rule book and write a new one.
- Interest or experience in wireless communication. You don’t need to be an expert with a patent portfolio, but you will need to be familiar with bit rates, quality of service, and large-scale network operations. If you don’t come in with this knowledge, you just need to demonstrate that you can learn it quickly.
- Experience with telecommunications. We are flexible about what this means. You might have worked directly at a telecom company (AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile), or at one of its major suppliers (like Cisco, Nokia, or Ericsson). What’s important is that you’re interested in carrier network infrastructure and protocols, and how to apply them to new solutions.
- Familiarity or interest in how to apply new 5G features, such as dynamic slicing, high-reliability and low-latency communications, and radio resource management, for airborne devices.
