Blue Water Autonomy
This role involves supporting the development of next-generation power plants for naval applications by designing, testing, and validating modular power generation systems ranging from 1-50MW. The engineer will work closely with ship design and power electronic teams to ensure system reliability and performance in harsh maritime environments. The position requires a strong interdisciplinary approach to system architecture, component selection, and hardware validation.
Blue Water Autonomy develops autonomous unmanned surface vessels (USVs) and systems to accelerate maritime autonomy across the open ocean. Their multi‑mission, blue‑water USVs are built to operate globally alongside navies and maritime operators, extending reach for persistent sensing, surveillance, and other missions while reducing risk to personnel. The company focuses on scalable platforms and autonomy to address new asymmetric threats and enable distributed maritime operations. Blue Water Autonomy targets defense and commercial customers seeking long‑range, adaptable unmanned maritime capability.
