Principal Product Manager, Ecosystem

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

Summary Of How You Will Impact Skylo

Skylo is hiring a Principal Product Manager to own how the global device ecosystem (chipsets, modules, OEMs, and test vendors) adopts Skylo. You will also drive Skylo's device program, coordinating across sales, sales engineering, and certification to support MNOs standing up the program. You are expected to know the industry pulse, navigate across engineering, commercial, standards, and certification teams, and pursue opportunities independently against today's roadmap and toward bets we haven't named yet. We move at startup pace. The role will evolve based on what the right person brings to it.

How You Will Contribute

Own Skylo's product relationships with the chipset, module, OEM, and test-equipment ecosystem. You will define how Skylo invests its engineering and integration capacity, balancing customer reach with technical feasibility.

Partner with the chipset and test-vendor ecosystem to drive industry adoption of Skylo's NTN stack and the underlying 3GPP features, keeping the standards-to-product translation tight.

Build and maintain AI-assisted workflows for partner prioritization, spec impact analysis, and certification quality bar updates.

Partner with the Certification team to continuously evolve the existing Skylo Certified program. You will sharpen acceptance criteria, raise the quality bar, close the loop between field issues and future certification standards, and be a key voice in no-go decisions when partners cannot meet the bar.

Be the key driver of Skylo's device program, coordinating across sales, sales engineering, and certification to support MNOs standing up the program. You will connect what the ecosystem can deliver to what MNOs need to launch.

Identify and pursue opportunities that move Skylo's current and future lines of business without being asked. You bring the next bet, not wait for one.

Use AI to synthesize field failure data into structured certification standard revisions before engineering escalation.

What We Look For

12+ years in product management, wireless systems engineering, or device ecosystem roles. Master's counts toward years.

Experience driving programs that specify chipset, module, or device requirements with shipped outcomes you can walk through end-to-end.

Can describe a specific AI workflow they built for a recurring PM task — with artifact, time saved, and teammates who adopted it.

Demonstrated ability to influence external partner roadmaps to support service goals.

Knowledge of 3GPP standards, modem behavior, RF, and certification methodology.

AI-native operator. You use modern AI tooling in your daily workflow and can describe exactly how.
