About the role
Skydio is seeking a Senior Process Engineer to lead and optimize manufacturing processes for autonomous products from prototype to high‑volume production. You will drive labor standards, capacity planning, line balancing and production modeling to ensure scalable, high‑quality output.
Responsibilities include developing standardized work, leading NPI manufacturing readiness, and partnering with cross‑functional teams to implement changes and improvements, while mentoring junior staff.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
