Job Description:

Skydio is seeking a Flight Test Operator focused on Device Platform systems – the mobile and controller interfaces that connect pilots to autonomy. This role treats the human–machine interface as flight-critical, ensuring that control software performs reliably, intuitively, and predictably in real-world operations. You’ll validate how customers interact with Skydio aircraft through mobile, controller, and handheld applications—testing workflows that span setup, flight, and recovery. You’ll work closely with mobile, embedded middleware, design, and other software hardware teams to expose edge cases, uncover usability risks, and shape customer experience.

Job Responsibility:

  • Plan and execute UI/UX validation campaigns for new software releases and features
  • Design and run operator-in-the-loop flight tests to evaluate real-world usability and decision support
  • Validate mobile and controller UI performance during live and simulated flight operations
  • Create and automate smoke, regression, and sanity stress test suites for mobile control interfaces
  • Measure and report on flight health, latency, responsiveness, input accuracy, and recovery behavior
  • Identify human system interaction risks early and drive design and test mitigations
  • Evaluate new features for repeatability, clarity, and operational stability
  • Collect and analyze operator telemetry, logs, and screen recordings to guide design feedback
  • Test and validate Ground control station (GCS) and mobile application workflows
  • Test and validate Touch, gesture, and controller-based inputs
  • Test and validate Mission planning and in-flight UI transitions
  • Test and validate Alerts, warnings, and system state visibility
  • Test and validate Performance under degraded GPS, comms, or RF conditions
  • Test and validate Secure login, authentication, and access control flows
  • Test and validate 3rd-party software, device integrations, and peripherals
  • Test and validate Human factors in safety- and autonomy-critical behaviors
  • Test and validate Bring up of new controller devices and various platforms
  • Partner with product, mobile software developers, middleware embedded teams, and design to define UX validation requirements, establish operational success metrics, and maintain safe, test-ready aircraft and controller environments

Requirements:

  • Background in human factors, mobile UI/UX validation or design, flight testing, and/or real-world system testing
  • Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills across mobile, embedded, and networked systems
  • Experience with UAS operations and high-reliability operator workflows
  • Understanding of human factors, usability engineering, and cognitive workload
  • Familiarity with Linux and embedded platforms (not required)
  • Strong documentation and technical communication skills
  • Passion for aviation, autonomy, and human-centered system design
  • Flying a lot!
What we offer:
  • Equity in the form of stock options
  • Comprehensive benefits packages
  • Relocation assistance may also be provided for eligible roles
  • Paid vacation time
  • Sick leave
  • Holiday pay
  • 401K savings plan
