Junior Electronics Engineer
About The Position
Seasats has dozens of autonomous vehicles in customer hands across the globe. In the quest to 10x our vehicle production and deployment rates, we’re looking for a motivated Junior Electronics Engineer who is excited to create high-quality products to operate in extremely harsh environments. You'll work as part of a tight team, collaborating with our CTO, other electrical engineers, testing, R&D, and production teams. You'll support projects spanning power systems, communications hardware, customer payloads and more. Some revisions and features will be glamorous and rewarding; others will be time-consuming and low-visibility to most of the team, though still vitally important. Our customers depend on our vehicles to complete high value (and at times dangerous) missions. The reliability of the systems that you’ll create is critical, so you’ll need to independently balance a fast development pace with attention to detail, quality, and manufacturability. At Seasats, we're passionate about delivering maritime robotics solutions to redefine the maritime industry. Our primary products are autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs), designed to carry sensors at sea for months at a time. Our ASVs provide persistent monitoring and data acquisition to defense, scientific, and commercial customers, and have autonomously crossed both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. After thousands of years in which the only way to gather information from the ocean was to put people on a boat, these uncrewed vessels are transforming how humanity monitors and interacts with the ocean. Here, you’ll find the space and opportunity to do your life’s best work. Whether you’re a new grad or a 30 year industry vet, we expect an open-minded learning attitude from everyone at Seasats.
