Skydio is the leading US drone manufacturer and world leader in autonomous flight, the key technology for the future of drones and aerial transportation. The Skydio team combines deep expertise in artificial intelligence, best-in-class hardware and software product development, and operational excellence to empower a broader, more diverse audience of drone users - from action sports enthusiasts to first responders.

About the role:

By combining best-in-class autonomy and cloud connectivity, drones will become critical and ubiquitous infrastructure that can be deployed and monitored in real-time to solve a variety of problems faster, cheaper, and safer than ever before. As a Federal Product Manager, you will take responsibility for defining and prioritizing key subsets of Skydio’s functionality to ensure we provide a best-in-class capability to Federal Government and Defense customers, globally.

What you can expect in this role:

  • Engage with customers, prospects, and internal stakeholders to understand core business problems and develop customer personas and use case requirements.
  • Continually develop and refine the roadmap for Skydio’s mobile applications and vehicle capabilities
  • Capture, document, and distill feedback from customers and prospects to continually steer product development.
  • Work closely with designers and engineering teams spanning hardware, firmware, computer vision, AI, and machine learning to execute on our product vision and deliver a first-class user experience, while also pushing the envelope on new technology opportunities in the product space.
  • Collaborate closely with sales and customer success to build and maintain close customer relationships and ensure success.
  • Partner with product marketing to develop launch plans and product positioning and messaging.

What makes you a good fit:

  • Three to seven years of proven success in defining and delivering market-leading software products, including specific experience leading development of compelling user-facing software for complex, electronic hardware products. Drone experience is a plus but not required.
  • Three years of experience working directly with federal or defense customers, ideally in a product-based role.
  • Engineering or other technical educational background that makes you at home in deep discussions with engineers on complex technical architecture challenges and tradeoffs.
  • An advanced degree or an MBA would be a plus, but is not required.
  • Detail-oriented with exceptional written and oral communication skills.
  • Dedicated team player who strives to enable others to do their best work. 
  • A passion for speaking with -- and learning from -- customers
