Description

Skyways designs, builds, and operates fully autonomous long-range cargo aircraft. Founded in 2017, the company has spent the last eight years developing and deploying autonomous logistics systems for real-world operations. Our V2 aircraft carries 30 lbs up to 500 miles, while our next-generation V3 carries 100 lbs over 1,000+ miles with 20+ hours of endurance. Both use a hybrid-electric architecture that takes off like a helicopter and cruises like a plane, enabling long-range autonomous delivery without traditional runway infrastructure. Today, Skyways aircraft operate across three continents in controlled national airspace under FAA oversight and in support of U.S. military operations. We are transitioning from prototype development to full-rate production and scaling toward large autonomous cargo fleets. Backed by Y Combinator and a $37M AFWERX STRATFI award from the U.S. Air Force, Skyways is creating a new form of transportation to advance our civilization from Austin, Texas. The Opportunity This role sits between manufacturing and flight. You’ll be on the shop floor building and integrating aircraft, then working through issues that show up when systems come together. Mechanical, electrical, avionics. It all connects, and when something doesn’t work, you’re the one figuring out why.Some days are clean builds. Some days are troubleshooting something that should work but doesn’t. If you’ve only worked from perfect instructions, this will feel uncomfortable. If you’ve actually had to figure things out, you’ll do well here. Want to join our mission? Apply to learn more! Due to U.S. government contract requirements, this role is limited to U.S. citizens, U.S. permanent residents, or candidates from specific countries authorized under applicable export control regulations. Skyways is an Equal Opportunity employer committed to diversity in the workplace. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, age, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, protected veteran status or any other factor protected by applicable local, state or federal laws. What You’ll Do Build and assemble aircraft structures and systems from the ground up Fabricate and work with composite parts (not the only thing you do) Install and integrate mechanical, electrical, and avionics systems Build and route wiring harnesses, perform testing and validation Troubleshoot mechanical and electrical issues during build and integration Support ground and flight test prep, including pre/post flight checks Work across subsystems and understand how they interact, not just your piece Improve build processes, tooling, and repeatability over time What You’ll Bring 4+ years building or working on real systems (aircraft, UAVs, vehicles, robotics) Strong mechanical foundation first, not just composites Experience working across full systems, not just one area Electrical experience: harnesses, connectors, testing, basic diagnostics Ability to read drawings, wiring diagrams, and actually use them Comfortable troubleshooting without a step-by-step playbook High ownership. If something is off, you don’t walk past it Bonus Points If You Have A&P license Flight line or flight test support experience Experience working under FAA or similar standards Background in autonomous systems or UAVs Experience in low-rate production or scaling builds
