The marine industry supports recreation, global commerce, and national defense. And yet it runs on technology that hasn't meaningfully changed in fifty years. Until now. Arc is on a mission to electrify the marine industry. We're rethinking powertrains, software, and vessel designs from first principles. And we're already executing. We started with consumers to develop and harden our core technology. We’re now scaling production of our flagship model with new models and sectors on the horizon. Now we’re extending our platform to commercial applications, starting with tugs, ferries, and defense, with years worth of signed contracts and a pipeline that spans every vessel type on the water.
The technology is proven, the momentum is building, and the opportunity is enormous. The marine industry is going electric and Arc is building the platform that powers it
As Arc's Staff Technical Program Manager for Commercial, you will own commercial programs from award through delivery, starting with a $160M contract to deliver a fleet of electric tugboats. That means owning schedule, scope, and risk for commercial programs from design through production and delivery; contributing delivery and performance inputs to proposals led by our Proposal Specialist; owning the working relationship with our shipyard and build partners; and running the operating cadence that turns customer commitments into delivered vessels.
We're looking for someone fired up by the mission and ready to build. You'll thrive here if you move fast, take ownership, and care about the details. This is a full-time, on-site role at our Los Angeles headquarters
We move with urgency and build with care. We value these five things above all else:
Ownership over both your work and the company’s success
Empathy for colleagues and for customers
Humility   in problem solving and collaboration
Pragmatism for navigating ambiguity quickly and sensibly 
Inclusion of different backgrounds, opinions, cultures, and perspectives.
We want people who share and embody these values. It is vital that our values align - we’d be happy to elaborate on any or all of these during the interview process.
