About the role
Commercial Solutions Engineer at Skydio to design and implement drone-based solutions across industries, partnering with Account Executives, guiding onboarding and expansion, and providing field feedback to Product and Engineering. This is a remote role with significant travel (50–75%).
Responsibilities
- Partner with Account Executives through the full sales cycle: technical discovery, solution design, demonstrations, and the technical narrative that differentiates Skydio.
- Translate complex use cases into operational workflows and scalable deployment practices, rather than one-off answers that do not survive the second site.
- Run proofs of concept to a standard: structured deployments tied to an active opportunity with measurable operational value, not casual evaluations.
- Guide integration and airspace strategy — REST APIs and customer data environments, physical security and video platforms, networking, BVLOS approvals, waivers, and docked operations.
- Guide customers through onboarding, implementation, and expansion, and build the reusable technical assets that let the team scale without rebuilding the same answer.
- Provide direct field feedback to Product and Engineering as prioritized, defensible requirements rather than a list of one-off asks.
Qualifications
- Experience in unmanned aircraft operation, design, development, or regulatory environments.
- Experience in one or more of our core commercial segments: utilities, AEC, security, or oil and gas.
- Technical competence and a background in a related field such as aviation, engineering, computer science, software development, or hardware design.
- Familiarity with integrations, REST-based APIs, or similar technologies.
- The ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to audiences ranging from drone pilots to senior executives.
- A solutions-focused mindset and a strong motivation to support the sales process and contribute to revenue goals.
