Job description

  • With best-in-class autonomy and real-time cloud connectivity, drones are becoming critical infrastructure for solving real-world problems faster, safer, and more efficiently
  • As an intern on the Cloud Platform and Infrastructure team, you’ll help build and scale the cloud systems that make this possible. Our team works across a wide range of challenges and we go where we’re needed:
  • Tackling scalability and deployment in both cloud and air-gapped environments
  • Designing and improving core cloud infrastructure and CI/CD systems
  • Enhancing telemetry, observability, and developer productivity
  • The variety of work means there are plenty of opportunities to learn and have a meaningful impact on how Skydio builds and delivers software
  • The ideal candidate is a junior, senior, or master’s student with hands-on experience developing complex web applications or backend systems, but above all, we’re looking for a highly curious and resourceful candidate, capable of using tools and AI at their disposal to accelerate their understanding and productivity
  • Building a system for allowing product teams to manage feature flags and rollouts of functionality to customers
  • Profiling server and backend system workloads, and optimizing performance or resource utilization
  • Developing a test framework to allow developers to simulate certain vehicle states and test application behavior
  • Developing and packaging a small form factor Skydio cloud offering for use in airgapped or edge environments
  • Familiarity with REST-ful APIs, Linux operating system configuration, build tools, relational databases (e.g. Postgres, MySQL) and caching systems (Redis, Memcached)
  • Understanding of cloud service offerings (e.g. AWS, GCP, Azure), deployment techniques, and configuration management
  • Proficiency with C/C++, Python, Golang, and/or Javascript/Typescript
  • Meaningful project and/or internship experience developing complex web applications or backend data systems
  • Solid computer science fundamentals
