About this role
Skyways designs, builds, and operates fully autonomous long range cargo aircraft. Founded in 2017, the company has spent nearly a decade developing and deploying autonomous logistics systems for real world operations.
Our V2 aircraft carries 30 lbs up to 500 miles, and V3 has a maximum range of well over 1,000 miles, a maximum useful load of 100 lbs, and a maximum endurance of nearly 20 hours. 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 fly revenue missions for commercial customers across three continents. We are scaling full rate production and building toward large fleets of autonomous cargo aircraft.
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 is the job that keeps our aircraft flying after the sale. As a UAS Field Service Representative, you're Skyways on the ground at a customer's site: deploying the aircraft, maintaining it, and fixing what breaks so their missions stay on schedule. When an aircraft goes down, you're the one who gets it back up.
Some days you're at our Austin shop or flight test site. Most days you're on the road, often internationally, running a customer site with limited backup and owning the outcome. It's hands-on, it's high-trust, and it moves. If you want a predictable desk job, this isn't it. If you like being the person customers rely on when it matters, you'll do well here.
