Senior Autonomy Engineer, Data Curation - Skydio - Remote - Global

As a Senior Engineer on the Autonomy Data Curation team, you’ll help build a data flywheel. You’ll collect the data that matters most from internal and external fleets of drones and turn it into high-quality, model-ready datasets that Autonomy teams can consume quickly and confidently for training and model development. Close peers will include the Deep Learning and Computer Vision teams. This role is an individual contributor who will report to the Director of Autonomy Data Curation. Build and operate pipelines that transform raw autonomy logs & media into curated datasets with strong observability and clear ownership to make curated data more broadly reusable. Build tooling that makes data discovery and slicing fast and self-serve for Autonomy teams. For example: media search tooling and hard mining loops with infra for auto-routing data to annotation. Improve dataset quality and repeatability: versioning, provenance, and automated checks. Apply privacy and security requirements in throughout our processes (access controls, retention, redaction/anonymization). Build with a data-driven and impact-forward mindset with dashboards highlighting cost, dataset balance, and audit details.
