Full Job Description
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: As our GTM Engineer, Pre-Sales, you sit at the intersection of our go-to-market teams and our technical build capacity. You understand how various go-to-market teams operate—what slows them down, what they actually need, and where AI or automation creates real leverage. You own the full cycle: find the problem, design the solution, build it, ship it, and make sure it sticks. This is a high-impact role. The work you do here won't just help one team move faster—it will reshape how Skydio goes to market. That means the bar isn't just "does it work"—it's "does it scale." A one-off fix that doesn't compound, a workflow that breaks under volume, a tool only one person knows how to use—these aren't wins. You build things that last, that grow, and that make the whole GTM machine better over time. You move fast. You prioritize ruthlessly. And you never ship something you can't hand off, repeat, or build on top of. How You’ll Make an Impact: Find the right problems to solve - Spend time with teams across the go-to-market function to understand where the friction is and where AI or automation creates the most leverage - Turn vague frustrations into concrete, buildable specs: the specific workflow, the data available, and what a better outcome looks like—not just "AI could help here" - Evaluate opportuniti
