Backend Engineer - Python (Remote)

Sofia, Sofia

Headquarters in Austin with in-office, hybrid, and remote employment possibilities anywhere in the world. We are a global team and want you to work wherever you feel most productive.

Our Mission

SkyFi is easifying access to earth observation and other geospatial data. Accessing, using, & buying earth observation imagery and data is extremely hard. For small businesses and individuals, it is nearly impossible... until now. We built a platform to connect anyone to up-to-date, high-resolution imagery.

What we do has tremendous potential to solve meaningful problems in our world. Everyone can be empowered by having this technology at their fingertips: detect bridges that are about to break, check the health of crops, track the evolution of endangered species, and introduce use cases that we can’t even imagine yet. Grab the chance to be part of this. Join a team of open-minded, dynamic people solving new challenges, and working on new technology in an exciting market with immense growth. SkyFi is the place for you.
