- Technologies is a leader in revolutionizing autonomy at sea, dedicated to developing state-of-the-art solutions that enhance maritime operations through autonomous and intelligent platforms.
- You will join the team responsible for keeping 's Medium Unmanned Surface Vessel (MUSV) platforms mission-ready: low-signature, autonomous vessels built to move critical supplies across contested littoral environments without a sailor on board. As a Sustainment Engineer, you'll support the propulsion, electrical, hydraulic, and hull systems that keep these platforms running, help diagnose and repair faults in the field under the guidance of senior engineers, and assist in training military technicians to sustain the platforms long-term. This role sits at the intersection of field maintenance and product development. Your hands-on findings from vessel maintenance and the waterline help inform how these platforms are engineered for reliability. The ideal candidate brings a foundationa
