Skyways designs, builds, and operates fully autonomous long-range cargo aircraft. We have been flying real missions with real customers since 2017.
Our V2 carries 30 lbs up to 500 miles and our V3 carries 100 lbs over 1,000 miles with 20+ hours of endurance. Both use a dual-hybrid design that takes off like a helicopter and cruises like a plane. We are currently flying on three continents, in controlled national airspace under FAA oversight, and in support of U.S. military operations.
Backed by Y Combinator and a $37M STRATFI contract from the U.S. Air Force, we are moving from prototype to full-rate production with a path to Program of Record. Based in Austin, we are scaling fast and hiring people who want to build the world's largest fleet of autonomous logistics aircraft.
The OpportunitySkyways 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.
