Cloud Software Engineer Intern
About The Position
By combining best-in-class autonomy and cloud-connected real-time visibility, drones will become critical and ubiquitous infrastructure that can be deployed and monitored in real-time to solve a variety of problems faster, cheaper, and safer than ever before. As a Cloud Software Intern on the Inspection & Mapping (I&M) team, you’ll help build the cloud services, APIs, and user experiences that transform raw drone data into actionable insights. You’ll work on projects that bridge the gap between the field and the cloud — powering mission planning, data synchronization, asset management, and 3D reconstruction workflows at scale. An ideal intern candidate is a junior, senior, or MS-level college student with practical project and/or internship experience developing complex web applications or backend data systems.
Requirements
- Solid software engineering foundation and a commitment to writing clean, well-architected code
- You are a junior, senior, or MS-level student with meaningful project and/or internship experience developing complex web applications or backend data systems.
- Proficiency with Python and/or Javascript/Typescript
- Familiarity with REST-ful APIs, Linux operating system configuration, build tools, relational databases (Postgres, MySQL) and caching systems (Redis, Memcached)
- Understanding of cloud service offerings (AWS, GCP), deployment techniques, and configuration management
Nice To Haves
- Bonus points for experience shipping products or features within a collaborative engineering team environment.
- Bonus points for experience with geospatial data, 3D visualization, or photogrammetry workflows.
Responsibilities
- Leverage your past experiences, best practices, and open-ended problem solving skills to help make the world more productive, creative, and safe with autonomous drones.
- Build customer facing product features to streamline inspection workflows, from flight planning and mission scheduling to data ingestion and reporting.
- Develop web applications and APIs for visualizing 3D scenes, managing inspection results, and tracking asset health over time.
- Improve synchronization and consumption of telemetry, imagery, and mission metadata between fleets of Skydio drones and the cloud.
- Develop secure, efficient, observable, scalable, and robust software for dealing with real-time data and video from fleets of Skydio drones
