About the Role:
In this role, you will be pivotal in transforming how we deliver essential information swiftly to our customers. Our clients require secure access to our cloud services every moment of every day. Our guiding principle is to ensure that enhanced security, comprehensive compliance, and adaptable deployment models do not compromise the user experience. We aim to provide our clients with robust security and flexibility—multi-cloud, multi-region, and government-grade compliance—without sacrificing speed or usability.
As a Senior Product Manager, you will take ownership of and drive the Cloud Platform & Infrastructure roadmap, enabling our multi-cloud and government-compliant platform capabilities to support Skydio's global expansion across federal, state, local, and commercial sectors. Additionally, you will manage Skydio's on-premise product offerings by transforming air-gapped and self-hosted deployments into scalable, secure, and impactful solutions.
This senior individual-contributor position focuses on converting field and sales challenges into a well-defined, customer-centric roadmap while leading cross-functional initiatives that bring these solutions to market. You will collaborate closely with Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), cloud engineering, security & compliance, legal, go-to-market (GTM) teams, and executive leadership to establish platform foundations that foster growth while ensuring the seamless and efficient experience our customers rely on.
Location
This position is based on-site five days a week at our headquarters in San Mateo, CA. Relocation assistance is available if needed.
How You'll Make an Impact:
Customer & Sales Engagement: Conduct discovery sessions with government and commercial clients to uncover their needs, build a strong business case for investment, validate proposed solutions in real-world scenarios, and enhance business growth by providing platform capabilities with clear delivery expectations.
Own the Platform Roadmap: Collaborate with sales, customer success, deployment engineers, and clients to transform recurring pain points into actionable platform advancements.
