- Ability to explain why a feature matters to a customer, not just how it works.
- Experience making complex architectural bets.
- Ability to articulate the pros and cons of different network topologies and how they affect the end-user service experience.
- Expert-level knowledge of the M(V)NO end-to-end stack, roaming interfaces, 3GPP, NTN, D2D with the ability to apply this knowledge for strategic product definition.
- Ability to define key performance indicators (KPIs) for network services and use that data to drive the next generation of product requirements.
Responsibilities
- Look outward to the market to identify unmet customer needs and map them to Skylo’s emerging technical capabilities.
- Identify problems that Skylo’s engineering team has solved and package them into sellable solutions.
- Go beyond established MNO use cases to identify and validate entirely new market verticals.
- Take ownership of new opportunities, driving execution from initial concept through to the first commercial pilot.
- Define the long-term architectural path for Skylo’s network.
- Evaluate high-stakes strategic trade-offs and determine how these choices create unique value propositions for new customer segments.
- Translate commercial objectives into clear engineering problems.
- Define what success looks like for new services, moving beyond simple connectivity to define the end-to-end product experience, including SLAs, pricing models, and go-to-market packaging.
- Close the loop between technical feasibility and market appetite by continuously validating R&D concepts with customers.
Benefits
- Competitive compensation packages including a stock option based equity program
- Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, retirement plan
