Senior Hardware Product Packaging Engineer
Skydio, San Mateo, California
The role
Packaging is the first thing a customer sees and touches and the last mile between our hardware and our customers. A Skydio drone might ship across the country in a corrugated carton, live for three years in a hard case in the trunk of a patrol car, get thrown in the back of a utility truck, or be carried into the field on a soldier’s back — and it has to work every time it comes out. You will own the designs that make that workflow possible: the unboxing moment, the field case, the foam, the labeling, and the pack-out on our production line.
This is a highly cross-functional role sitting between design, manufacturing, supply chain, and our vendors.
What you need
- Prior packaging or product development experience with a proven track record of execution, enthusiasm, and cooperation. This role could be a senior-level depending on experience.
- Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, packaging engineering, or equivalent with demonstrated academic excellence.
