The posting

Skydio is the leading US drone company and the world leader in autonomous flight, the key technology for the future of drones and aerial mobility. The Skydio team combines deep expertise in artificial intelligence, best-in-class hardware and software product development, operational excellence, and customer obsession to empower a broader, more diverse audience of drone users, from utility inspectors https://www.skydio.com/solutions/energy-and-utilities to first responders https://www.skydio.com/solutions/public-safety, soldiers in battlefield scenarios https://www.skydio.com/solutions/national-security/tactical-isr, and beyond https://www.skydio.com/solutions.

About the Role:

Skydio designs and manufactures fully autonomous drones that use state of the art hardware paired with advanced computer vision and machine learning to ensure our users always have access to the visual information they need. As a key member of our end-to-end imaging team, you will leverage deep expertise in ISP pipelines and Linux-based SoCs to architect and develop cutting-edge camera subsystems for both current and next-generation products.

About the Team:

We design camera systems that support autonomous navigation, professional media capture, and industrial inspection and situational awareness. From early-stage user needs analysis to mass production, we manage the entire lifecycle: requirements definition, hardware bring-up, tuning, and validation. We work closely with the broader software organization to lay a strong foundation for the rest of the stack.

How You’ll Make an Impact:

- Lead development and integration of camera subsystems

- Design and bring up ISP and camera hardware

- Configure and optimize ISP and encoder pipelines

- Collaborate with image quality, calibration, and test teams to deliver production-ready camera software

- Develop next-generation image processing algorithms for autonomous flight applications

- Bring up and debug new hardware platforms and prototypes

What Makes You a Good Fit:

- Proven experience with ISP development on ARM-based Linux/Android SoCs, especially Qualcomm platforms

- Deep understanding of ISP pipeline architecture, including front-end, Bayer processing, and post-processing

- Strong background in algorithm development across CPU, DSP, GPU, and ISP pipelines

- Hands-on experience with real-time 3A algorithms

- Familiarity with Android Camera HAL3, Linux V4L2, AVC, and HEVC standards

- Experience with GStreamer and GPU shader-based implementations for image processing (Debayering, lens shading, etc.)

- Strong embedded development experience, including firmware for physical hardware

- Proficiency in modern C++ in real-time, embedded environments

- Python scripting and development skills

- Skilled in hardware bring-up, low-level debugging, and performance optimization

- Commitment to writing clean, maintainable, and well-abstracted code

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
