Skylo Technologies is a global NTN service provider, offering a service that allows smartphone and IoT cellular devices to connect directly over existing satellites. Backed by Innovation Endeavors.
About the role
The world still has coverage blind spots. You could help eliminate them at Skylo. When you join Skylo, you'll work at the intersection of three markets reshaping how the world stays connected: mass-market consumer devices, automotive, and industrial IoT. Enabling people outdoors and critical workflows in the world's most remote places.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years of infrastructure engineering, Site Reliability Engineering, or cloud operations in a production 24x7 environment — with direct on-call ownership for Kubernetes-at-scale environments
- Deep Kubernetes expertise: multi-cluster operations (GKE or EKS), node pool management, RBAC, network policies, persistent storage (PVC, CSI drivers), CRD/operator patterns, and production cluster upgrade procedures
- Hybrid cloud operations: hands-on experience operating both public cloud (GCP or AWS) and on-premise/private cloud infrastructure (bare-metal Kubernetes, KVM, or hyperconverged platforms)
- Production observability stack ownership: Prometheus (federation, remote write, WAL management), Grafana, VictoriaMetrics, OpenTelemetry, and alerting pipeline design with Pub/Sub or equivalent
- Database reliability: PostgreSQL streaming replication, backup/restore, failover procedures, and performance tuning, Redis cluster operations and persistence management
- GitOps tooling in production: ArgoCD or Flux CD for multi-cluster operations, Helm chart authorship and version management, Terraform or Ansible for infrastructure provisioning
More about this role
The world still has coverage blind spots. You could help eliminate them at Skylo.
Skylo has pioneered a standards-based approach to satellite connectivity. We connect smartphones and IoT devices directly to satellites. No special hardware, no entirely new networks. Just billions of existing devices, suddenly reachable anywhere on Earth. We're not building toward this future. We're already in it.
Our direct-to-device service is live on millions of activated devices across five continents, covering more than 72 million square kilometers, in partnership with leading satellite operators, mobile network operators, Tier-1 chipset makers, and OEMs worldwide. And we're just getting started.
At the heart of it all is Skylo's commercial NTN vRAN: a 3GPP standards-based, cloud-native platform that seamlessly bridges terrestrial and satellite networks. It's the infrastructure that makes true anywhere, anytime connectivity possible.
When you join Skylo, you'll work at the intersection of three markets reshaping how the world stays connected: mass-market consumer devices, automotive, and industrial IoT. Enabling people outdoors and critical workflows in the world's most remote places.
