Job Description

Deep practical expertise in at least one of: hull and hydrodynamics, structures and integration, mechanisms and actuation, battery mechanical design, or propulsion.
Sufficient familiarity with adjacent mechanical domains to collaborate across subsystem boundaries.
Strong CAD proficiency and experience managing complex assemblies across multi-disciplinary teams.
Strong analytical skills across FEA and hand calculations, with sound engineering judgment about when to use each.
Demonstrated ability to design for manufacturing—you know how parts get made and you design accordingly.
Hands-on experience with prototyping, assembly, and test—you are comfortable in a shop and on a dock.
Experience reading and producing engineering drawings, defining tolerances, and managing interfaces.
Experience designing for demanding physical environments, accounting for factors such as pressure, thermal, vibration, corrosion, or long-duration reliability as relevant to your specialization.
Demonstrated ability to work from first principles, make progress with incomplete information, and rapidly iterate between design, analysis, fabrication, and test.
Ability to work independently with minimal oversight while collaborating closely across engineering disciplines.
Willingness to support field testing and sea trials when required.
U.S. citizenship and eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance.
Approximately five or more years of relevant mechanical engineering experience is preferred, but demonstrated technical depth, multidisciplinary problem-solving ability, and a record of delivering difficult systems matter more than a specific number of years. Exceptional candidates at any experience level are encouraged to apply.
