Job description


We are seeking a Marine Engineer or Naval Architect to own the design, analysis, and deployment of our smart buoy platform. This is a highly interdisciplinary role focused on hydrodynamics, station-keeping, structural design, and real-world ocean performance.
You will lead the development of a dynamically positioning system that supports AUV docking, offshore charging, and data transfer, operating reliably in challenging sea states. This role is ideal for a strong graduate, Master's student, or PhD candidate looking for hands-on ownership of a full ocean system, from concept through field deployment.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Buoy & System Design
  • Design and develop MOBY's smart buoy platform for offshore deployment
  • Own hull form, structural layout, and subsystem integration (power, comms, docking interface)

Hydrodynamics & Seakeeping
  • Perform seakeeping analysis to evaluate buoy motion response across sea states
  • Model and optimize system behavior for docking stability and operational uptime
  • Analyze wave-body interactions and minimize relative motion for subsea operations

Mooring
  • Design and analyze mooring systems for various deployment environments
  • Perform load analysis for mooring lines, anchors, and structural components

Powering & Dynamic Positioning
  • Estimate power requirements for station-keeping, onboard systems, and charging
  • Support development of station-keeping strategies
  • Work closely with controls/software teams on DP integration

Modeling & Simulation
  • Build and maintain CAD models (Rhino or similar)
  • Perform simulations for hydrodynamics, loads, and system behavior
  • Support rapid iteration between design and field validation

Field Testing & Operations
  • Support offshore deployments and system validation
  • Analyze field data to refine models and improve performance
  • Contribute to operational planning and logistics

Requirements
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Degree (or pursuing) in Naval Architecture, Marine Engineering, Ocean Engineering, or related field
  • Strong fundamentals in hydrodynamics, stability, and marine systems design
  • Experience with seakeeping and/or mooring analysis
  • Proficiency in CAD tools (e.g., Rhino or similar)
  • Understanding of ocean environments and offshore operations
  • Hands-on engineering mindset with ability to build, test, and debug systems

PREFERRED
  • Graduate-level research (MS or PhD) in a relevant field
  • Experience with:
    • Mooring design tools (OrcaFlex, ProteusDS, etc.)
    • Seakeeping analysis (WAMIT, AQWA, or similar)
    • Small vessel or offshore system design
    • Marine robotics
    • Ocean deployments or field experience
    • Dynamic positioning systems
    • Marine power systems (batteries, solar, hybrid systems)
    • Subsea systems and sensors (acoustic modems, CTD, imaging sonar)

Benefits
  • Ownership of a critical ocean system from concept to deployment
  • Competitive pay
  • Hands-on work in real marine environments
  • Rapid iteration between design, simulation, and field testing
  • Small, highly technical team with broad system exposure
  • Opportunity to shape next-generation ocean infrastructure
