The posting

ABOUT US

Quartermaster is building the world's most comprehensive maritime intelligence platform. Our SmartMast™ system transforms commercial and civilian vessels into a persistent, distributed sensing network—combining HD video, AI, radar, RF sensing, and AIS to deliver real-time maritime domain awareness at global scale. With 600+ sensors deployed across 25+ countries and more than 400,000 vessels identified outside of AIS, we are setting a new standard for what ocean surveillance and safety can look like. We are a mission-driven, high-velocity team building dual-use technology for defense agencies, coast guards, and commercial maritime operators.

JOB DESCRIPTION

We are seeking a versatile and hands-on Electrical Engineer to lead the design, development, and validation of the electrical subsystems that power our SmartMast™ platform—an edge-deployed, Linux and GPU-based sensor node for maritime intelligence. In this role, you will be responsible for the full lifecycle of electrical design, from schematic capture and multi-layer PCB layout through to board bring-up, hardware debugging, and environmental validation. This includes integrating core compute hardware, rugged power delivery, peripheral interfaces, multi-sensor payloads, and EMI/resilience measures required for harsh marine field deployments. You’ll collaborate closely with mechanical, software, and systems engineers to evolve SmartMast™ into a modular, production-grade edge sensing platform.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

- Create schematics and multi-layer board layouts using industry-standard EDA tools, optimized for thermal, EMI, and mechanical constraints.

- Oversee PCB fabrication and assembly partners, managing BOMs, performing DFM/DFA reviews, and validating prototype runs.

- Integrate and interface peripherals and sensor payloads, including cameras, GPUs, SDRs, GNSS/GPS, IMUs, PoE, radar, and environmental sensors.

- Design rugged power delivery networks, including battery integration, surge suppression, and redundant regulation paths for safety-critical systems.

- Perform hands-on electrical bring-up, validation, and board-level troubleshooting across prototypes and production units using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and lab instrumentation.

- Drive design-for-reliability initiatives across shock, vibration, ingress protection (IP rating), lightning protection, and extreme thermal conditions.

- Support enclosure packaging and harness design in close collaboration with mechanical engineering to ensure robust physical and electrical integration.

- Maintain comprehensive engineering documentation, including schematics, test procedures, manufacturing guidelines, and hardware change logs (ECOs).

- Collaborate with software and AI teams to validate hardware stability and signal integrity under real-world workloads and operational field conditions.

QUALIFICATIONS (PREFERRED)

- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.

- 6+ years of experience designing, bringing up, and delivering production-grade embedded hardware and mixed-signal systems.

- Proficiency with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (e.g., Altium Designer, OrCAD).

- Strong foundation in high-speed signal integrity, power electronics, and mixed-signal design principles.

- Hands-on experience with hardware bring-up, bench validation, and lab debugging using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and multimeters.

- Familiarity with camera and high-speed data interfaces (CSI, USB3, Ethernet, PCIe) as well as serial buses (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN).

- Experience designing ruggedized electronics built for environmentally constrained, high-reliability, or outdoor deployments.

- Strong collaboration and communication skills across multidisciplinary hardware, software, and mechanical teams.

- Bonus: experience with NVIDIA embedded platforms (Jetson), RF design considerations, or marine/aerospace hardware deployments.

WORK ENVIRONMENT

- Flexible working hours with occasional deadlines requiring high availability.

- Opportunity to work on innovative projects with a global impact.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
