At Skyways, we are building a new form of air transportation—what some call the flying car. Backed by fresh funding and a major STRATFI contract from the U.S. Air Force, we’re uniquely positioned to lead the next wave of aviation innovation. Our fully autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) represent a breakthrough opportunity to move goods—and soon, people—in ways that are faster, safer, and more efficient than ever before. Unlike anyone else in the industry, our strategy blends rapid iteration with real-world deployment, and it’s already paying off.
Skyways is a fast-growing startup based in Austin, TX, supported by top Silicon Valley investors including Y Combinator. Though we’re early-stage, our vehicles are already in production and in the hands of paying commercial customers (see here and here). With robust financial backing and government partnerships accelerating our momentum, there’s never been a better time to join us and help build the future of transportation!
The Opportunity
Technicians are a core part of the Customer Success team. You will be the hands on experts who keep customer aircraft flying safely and reliably. Your work will include routine maintenance, firmware and software updates, troubleshooting, and urgent repairs. You will be the customer’s first point of contact when issues arise, making your role highly visible and critical.
You will spend time in the field at customer sites, working directly with operators, diagnosing problems, providing solutions, and sharing best practices. Travel is a natural part of the job, but balanced with problem solving and process building back at headquarters. Your role ensures that customers get the maximum value from their Skyways aircraft and that every deployment runs smoothly.
