Technical Sourcer

Skyways designs, builds, and operates fully autonomous long-range cargo aircraft. Founded in 2017, the company has spent the last eight years developing and deploying autonomous logistics systems for real-world operations. Our V2 aircraft carries 30 lbs up to 500 miles, while our next-generation V3 carries 100 lbs over 1,000+ miles with 20+ hours of endurance. Both use a hybrid-electric architecture that takes off like a helicopter and cruises like a plane, enabling long-range autonomous delivery without traditional runway infrastructure. Today, Skyways aircraft operate across three continents in controlled national airspace under FAA oversight and in support of U.S. military operations. We are transitioning from prototype development to full-rate production and scaling toward large autonomous cargo fleets. Backed by Y Combinator and a $37M AFWERX STRATFI award from the U.S. Air Force, Skyways is creating a new form of transportation to advance our civilization from Austin, Texas. The Opportunity Skyways is hiring a Technical Sourcer to own top-of-funnel hiring across engineering, manufacturing, autonomy, hardware, robotics, operations, and technical leadership roles. This role is about judgment, market understanding, and clean execution. You will help define where the right talent sits, find strong candidates, start the conversation, and hand off qualified people into the recruiting process. Done well, this role directly shapes who joins Skyways. You will give hiring managers better options, help recruiting move faster, and build a clearer picture of the technical talent market as we scale.
