Wireless Engineering Summer Intern | Skydio Drone Company

Skydio is looking for a highly motivated Summer Intern to support its Wireless Engineering team in design validation and data analysis. The role focuses on building scalable data processing pipelines and tools that make it easier to analyze wireless validation data from bench testing and factory testing. You will work closely with RF and antenna engineers to improve how wireless performance data is collected, processed, and visualized, helping speed up product development and manufacturing readiness. It suits someone who enjoys working where wireless systems meet cloud-based data engineering.

Key Responsibilities

Example projects include:

• Develop automated data processing pipelines to analyze RF and antenna validation data from lab bench testing
• Build cloud-based tools and dashboards to streamline factory test data ingestion, processing, and visualization
• Improve data quality checks and validation frameworks to ensure reliable wireless performance metrics
• Partner with RF engineers to turn test requirements into scalable analysis workflows
• Optimize existing scripts and infrastructure to improve the efficiency and reproducibility of wireless performance analysis
• Contribute to documentation and best practices for wireless data management across development and manufacturing

Requirements

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s (upcoming junior or senior), Master’s, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
• Strong fundamentals in wireless systems, RF engineering, or antenna theory
• Proficiency in cloud-based development and data processing (e.g., Python, data pipelines, scripting, APIs)
