Jobs at Skylark Wireless

Skylark Wireless is a wireless networking hardware startup headquartered in the vibrant heart of Houston, TX specializing in Television White Space (TVWS) systems and wireless beamforming or “Massive-MIMO” technologies for 5G wireless. Originally founded in 2012 by Ph.D. colleagues in order to provide custom software-defined radio equipment for research and development, today we design and manufacture customized radio solutions addressing the needs of the rural broadband market. The high cost of fiber and satellite communications, as well as the poor range and capacity of cellular wireless technologies leaves 24 million Americans and over half of the world without high-speed broadband communications. We believe that high-speed internet access is a great equalizer, providing citizens with vital education, access to commercial opportunities, and entertainment in an increasingly global world. Skylark’s proprietary Faros™ base station is able to provide wireless high-speed multi-user data links over tens of miles using Massive-MIMO technologies first developed and demonstrated at Rice University. Skylark is funded through sales, consulting, investment, and development grants from the NSF SBIR program and Microsoft. With your help, we will be piloting our technology with strategic partners in order to start serving end users in the next few years. We maintain an open, relaxing 2,640 sq. ft. office within Houston’s inner loop with access to parking and a wealth of dining choices nearby. Houston is the 4th largest city in the US, yet maintains an exceptionally low cost of living, a diverse and friendly culture, and plenty of night life and dining options from all corners of the world. There’s a reason Houston is consistently listed as one of the best and most diverse U.S. cities to live in—you’ll see it when you join us. Home of the Johnson Space Center and the Astrodome, we don’t shy from large projects or big ideas and we’re certain you can find your place here.
