# IT Manager, Manufacturing

Skydio is the leading US drone company and the world leader in autonomous flight, the key technology for the future of drones and aerial mobility. The Skydio team combines deep expertise in artificial intelligence, best-in-class hardware and software product development, operational excellence, and customer obsession to empower a broader, more diverse audience of drone users, from utility inspectors to first responders, soldiers in battlefield scenarios, and beyond. About the Role The IT Manager, Manufacturing owns every piece of technology that keeps Skydio’s drone production lines running. You are the single IT leader for the factory: you set the manufacturing IT strategy directly with local factory leadership, then build the team, infrastructure and operating model that deliver it. This is a build-and-take-over role. Factory IT is supported today as an extension of corporate IT; you will take ownership of it, establish it as a dedicated function, and run it to production standards, where downtime is measured in units not shipped. You will be as comfortable walking the line with a production supervisor at shift change as presenting a three-year roadmap to operations executives. T
