The world still has coverage blind spots. You could help eliminate them at Skylo. Skylo has pioneered a standards-based approach to satellite connectivity. We connect smartphones and IoT devices directly to satellites. No special hardware, no entirely new networks. Just billions of existing devices, suddenly reachable anywhere on Earth. We're not building toward this future. We're already in it. Our direct-to-device service is live on millions of activated devices across five continents, covering more than 72 million square kilometers, in partnership with leading satellite operators, mobile network operators, Tier-1 chipset makers, and OEMs worldwide. And we're just getting started. At the heart of it all is Skylo's commercial NTN vRAN: a 3GPP standards-based, cloud-native platform that seamlessly bridges terrestrial and satellite networks. It's the infrastructure that makes true anywhere, anytime connectivity possible. When you join Skylo, you'll work at the intersection of three markets reshaping how the world stays connected: mass-market consumer devices, automotive, and industrial IoT. Enabling people outdoors and critical workflows in the world's most remote places. This is a rare chance to work on technology that matters, at a company that's already proving it works
Skylo is exploring how agentic AI can unlock new capabilities and business opportunities across telecommunications and connected systems. We're looking for a highly entrepreneurial software engineer who enjoys solving ambiguous problems, experimenting with emerging technologies, and turning early ideas into working products. You'll work at the intersection of agentic AI, identity, service discovery, and network technologies. Your focus will be on understanding emerging opportunities, developing technical approaches, and rapidly building prototypes that demonstrate real business value. This is a hands-on, zero-to-one engineering role for someone who likes building as much as thinking. This is a hybrid role requiring regular in-office presence at our Mountain View, CA location.
You'll be successful if you can independently identify promising technical opportunities, build compelling demonstrations, and help Skylo determine which emerging agentic AI capabilities have the potential to become valuable products or services.
