- Ufficio in Austin
Description
At Skyways, we are building the next generation of autonomous air transportation. Our fully autonomous unmanned aircraft systems move cargo faster and more efficiently than traditional logistics networks.
Backed by strong investor support and a $37M STRATFI contract from the U.S. Air Force, we operate at the intersection of commercial logistics and national defense. Our aircraft are not just prototypes—we design, build, fly, and deploy them with real customers today.
Based in Austin and supported by investors including Y Combinator, Skyways combines rapid engineering iteration with real-world operations. As we scale toward larger deployments, we are looking for people who want to help build and operate the future of autonomous aviation.
The Opportunity
Skyways is hiring a Manufacturing Engineer to help turn aircraft designs into repeatable manufacturing processes as aircraft transition from prototype builds toward scalable production. This role sits at the intersection of engineering and production, ensuring aircraft components and assemblies can be built efficiently and consistently.
Manufacturing Engineers work closely with design engineers during aircraft builds, helping improve manufacturability, develop tooling and processes, and support production as aircraft move from prototype builds toward larger deployments.
