## Job description

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.

This is a rare chance to work on technology that matters, at a company that's already proving it works

Skylo is hiring a Senior DevOps Engineer for our network implementation team.

- Automate complex multi-vendor, multi-domain software and firmware releases across RAN, Core, and other network layers in hybrid environments.
- Continuously improve DevOps workflows to increase reliability, reduce lead time,s and support zero touch deployments.
- Build and maintain automated environments for integration, staging, pre-production, and testing.
- Develop modular release workflows to manage versioning, rollback and safe deployment strategies across all network domains.
- Ensure DevOps automation and cloud infrastructure adhere to security best practices.
- Collaborate with security teams to enforce role-based access control and implement appropriate security policies.
- Enable proactive fault detection and predictive maintenance for cloud-hosted network components.
- Lead infrastructure modernization initiatives and drive strategic automation projects.
- Work closely with network design teams and cloud architects to align and optimize automation strategies.
