Krateo Sky's mission is to expand human capability with intelligent aerial robotics.

We are building a Western at-scale AI perception and actuation platform for robotic flight and aerial intervention spanning defense, national security, infrastructure, public safety, and industrial operations. Our platform combines a common autonomy architecture, advanced perception, mission software into one connected system — built for operators who need autonomy they can trust, control, and sustain.

What makes Krateo Sky different is simple: we bring the leadership, operating discipline, and urgency that this moment demands. Our team has built, led, and scaled multi-billion-dollar global industrial companies and we are now applying that proven experience to accelerate the deployment of reliable autonomous systems. We are rapidly acquiring proven companies, integrating the best technology and talent, and building a vertically integrated, AI-native platform with speed and scale.

Anchored by a secure, Western-sourced supply chain and advanced manufacturing operations in Denton, Texas, Krateo Sky operates from first principles and executes for customers with purpose and pace.

Joining Krateo Sky means joining at a formative moment-when the systems, standards, and decisions we make now will shape how autonomous aerial capability scales in the years ahead. This is an opportunity to do consequential work alongside experienced leaders, help build a category-defining platform, and solve hard engineering and operational challenges that matter in the real world. As an AI-native organization, Krateo Sky is also building an environment where modern tools, automation, and connected systems help teams move faster, reduce manual work, and focus their energy on the highest-value problems.

For people who are motivated by mission, energized by building, and excited by the chance to combine speed, rigor, and intelligent automation, Krateo Sky offers the opportunity to have outsized impact on technology, operations, and the future of trusted autonomy.

Krateo Sky is hiring a Product Security Capability Leader to build and scale a core engineering capability that supports every product line in our portfolio. This leader end-to-end cyber-physical product security across UAS platforms, payload and mission systems, ground systems, data links, embedded environments, software deployment paths, telemetry/data systems, cloud-connected product services, manufacturing/PLM access paths, and fielded operational environments. The role combines hands-on technical leadership with functional ownership for the people, processes, tools, and operating discipline required to scale.

This is a hands-on player-coach role for a leader who can solve technical problems directly while also building the people, processes, and operating discipline required to scale across a growing organization.

As an AI-native and automation-first leader, the default instinct is to eliminate manual tasks. This leader will use AI and automation as productivity multipliers to reduce manual work, improve engineering throughput, and help teams focus on the highest-value technical problems. The leader embodies our values: deliver precision, challenge assumptions, break problems into fundamentals, and execute hands-on without ego to ensure product lines seamlessly pull from—and contribute to—shared, robust capability assets.
