The posting

Saronic 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.

JOB OVERVIEW:

We are seeking a versatile Forward Deployed Electrical Engineer to join our technical team. You will have a strong electrical background and be responsible for bringing our technology from the lab to the fleet.

This is not a traditional engineering role. You will be responsible for deploying our systems into the real world, directly supporting maritime missions. You will integrate electrical payloads, debug complex system-level problems, and iterate hardware designs in the field to ensure success. This is a highly hands-on and field-oriented role with time split between the lab, fabrication spaces, and the waterfront.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

- Design systems to support electrical integration of novel systems and payloads onto our Autonomous Service Vessels (ASVs) and maritime platforms

- Lead rapid prototyping efforts (electrical) to support field experimentation and platform evolution

- Perform system bring-up, integration, and troubleshooting of power, networking, sensor, and compute subsystems. Candidates need to be capable of understanding full system topologies, balancing power budgets, thermal constraints, and signal integrity

- Own dockside and sea trials — prepare vessels, install new electrical hardware packages, and perform system validation in operationally relevant environments

- Drive design-for-assembly and design-for-deployment feedback into electrical product development

- Work closely with cross-functional teams, including Mechanical, Software, and Autonomy Engineers, to evolve and harden system designs

- Interface with suppliers and fabrication shops to support fast turnarounds of custom components and harnesses

- Contribute to documentation and training to support the scaling of deployment and manufacturing

QUALIFICATIONS:

- Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field. Master's degree is a plus

- 3+ years of experience working on integrated electrical/electromechanical systems, preferably in fielded or mission-critical environments

- Hands-on expertise in electrical integration (power systems, cabling, connectors, PCB bring-up)

- Hands-on expertise in rapid prototyping and system-level debugging

- Comfort working with basic electrical test equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes) and field integration setups

- Experience working with a Linux-based operating system

- Experience working with other types of comms: serial (rs232, rs485) and CANbus

- Understanding of networking protocols and distributed systems, including TCP/IP, UDP, and message-passing frameworks

- Willingness to work in dynamic, hands-on environments, including on and near the water

- Strong sense of ownership and bias for action; thrives solving open-ended problems in real-world environments

- Experience with autonomous systems, drones, or other robotic platforms preferred

- Familiarity with maritime environments or naval platforms preferred

- Ability to write basic software tools (e.g., Python, shell scripts) for hardware bring-up or test automation preferred

- Exposure to ruggedized or IP-rated hardware design preferred

- Experience in systems integration or test engineering preferred

PHYSICAL DEMANDS

- Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer

- Occasional standing and walking within the office

- Manual dexterity to operate a computer keyboard, mouse, and other office equipment

- Visual acuity to read screens, documents, and reports

- Occasional reaching, bending, or stooping to access file drawers, cabinets, or office supplies

- Lifting and carrying items up to 20 pounds occasionally (e.g., office supplies, packages)

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.
