Camera & Imaging Intern

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:

Skydio designs and manufactures fully autonomous drones that use state of the art hardware paired with advanced computer vision and machine learning to ensure our users always have access to the visual information they need. As part of our imaging team in Tampere, you will help test and characterize the camera modules going into our current and next-generation products, design the lab setups that make that testing possible, and - depending on your interests - get involved in image quality analysis, ISP tuning, or our Qualcomm-based camera software stack.

This is a part-time position alongside your studies, with flexible hours.

About The Team:

We design camera systems that support autonomous navigation, professional media capture, and industrial inspection and situational awareness. From early-stage user needs analysis to mass production, we manage the entire lifecycle: requirements definition, hardware bring-up, tuning, and validation.

How You'll Make An Impact:Design and build new lab setups and fixtures for camera and image quality testing, including the software that drives them

Test and calibrate new camera modules against our requirements

Analyze measurement data and turn it into clear visualizations and reports that steer concrete design decisions

Depending on your interests and background: contribute to image quality analysis, ISP tuning, optics simulations, or development on our Qualcomm-based camera software stack
