related circuitry for vessel propulsion in autonomous, electric,
and hybrid vessels. You will integrate with marine, hardware, and
firmware engineers and manage projects from conception through
testing iterations, prototype manufacturing, and field testing.
This is a hands-on role developing critical components for
safety-critical applications in harsh environments. You will be
