What are offshore jobs?

Offshore jobs refer to employment opportunities that are located away from the mainland, typically on oil rigs, ships, or remote facilities at sea. These positions can include roles in oil and gas extraction, maritime operations, engineering, construction, and support services. Offshore jobs often require working in challenging environments and may involve long shifts or rotations away from home. Workers are usually provided with accommodations, meals, and transportation to and from the worksite. Safety is a high priority, and specialized training is often required.

What unique challenges should I expect when working in an offshore job environment?

Working offshore often involves extended periods away from home, challenging weather conditions, and adjusting to a rotational schedule (such as two weeks on, two weeks off). The work environment is highly regulated for safety, and teamwork is crucial, as you’ll be collaborating closely with colleagues from diverse backgrounds in confined quarters. Adapting to the physical and mental demands, as well as maintaining strong communication skills, are key to thriving in this dynamic setting.

What is the difference between Offshore Job vs Onshore Job?

AspectOffshore JobOnshore Job
Work LocationLocated in a different country, often offshore or overseasLocated within the same country as the employer
Work EnvironmentRemote or in offshore offices, often involving international teamsOn-site or local office environment
Required CredentialsSimilar certifications, often industry-specific, with additional language or cultural skillsSame certifications, typically more familiar with local standards
Industry UsageCommon in IT, manufacturing, and customer support sectorsCommon in construction, healthcare, and local services

Offshore jobs involve working in a different country or remotely from an offshore location, often with international teams, while onshore jobs are based within the same country and local environment. Both roles may require similar industry certifications, but offshore jobs may also demand additional language or cultural skills. Understanding these differences helps job seekers choose the right opportunity based on location preferences and work environment.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in an Offshore Job, and why are they important?

To thrive in an offshore job, you generally need technical expertise in your trade (such as engineering, drilling, or maintenance), relevant safety training, and certifications like BOSIET or HUET. Familiarity with offshore-specific equipment, safety systems, and computer-based monitoring tools is typically required. Strong teamwork, adaptability, and effective communication are crucial soft skills due to the remote and high-risk environment. These skills and qualifications are vital to ensure operational efficiency, personal safety, and seamless collaboration in challenging offshore conditions.

Job description

About the Company
We are a renewable energy and ocean technology company committed to rapidly developing and deploying technologies that will ensure a sustainable future for Earth by unlocking the vast energy potential of its oceans. Our focus is on capturing civilizational levels of ultra-low-cost renewable energy for applications including computing and affordable renewable fuels delivered to shore.
The company is a public benefit corporation headquartered in Portland, Oregon and backed by leading venture capitalists, philanthropic investors, university endowments, and private investment offices. We operate as an idea meritocracy in which the best ideas change the company's direction on a regular basis.
About the Job
Our core technology is the node, a device that produces energy in the ocean's harshest conditions for years at a time without human maintenance or intervention.
Once our nodes leave the manufacturing facility, they must be deployed, operated, and maintained safely and reliably across vast oceanic regions-all at an unprecedented scale and reduced cost. As Offshore Technician, Communications you will provide support for our pilot fleet deployed off the Oregon Coast. Additionally, you will assist in the testing and development of new operations which facilitate rapid commercialization of a large-scale fleet abroad. Once the technology and operations have been successfully demonstrated, your primary duty will be training new crews internationally to execute the offshore operations developed in the Pacific Northwest.
Initially this role will focus on operating, maintaining, and repairing the communications equipment required for our offshore operations. However, the intent is to cross train technicians across disciplines in order to expand the team's capacity for training crews overseas. Thus, both learning new skills and training others on the skills you currently command will be required.
This role demands a hands-on learner with the commitment and curiosity required for continued education. This individual must enjoy and be capable of passing on knowledge to others. If you thrive in a high-stakes, fast-paced environment and are eager to develop the next generation of offshore energy infrastructure, we want to hear from you.
Our staff have worked at organizations such as SpaceX, Blue Origin, Boeing, Tesla, Apple, Virgin Orbit, Astra, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, New Relic, Bridgewater, Raytheon, Disney Imagineering, and the US Navy, Army, and Air Force, as well as research universities, startups, and small companies across a range of industries. We are organized as a public benefit corporation and are backed by leading venture capital firms, private investors, philanthropic investors, and endowments.
We strive to be the best team on the planet and we compensate our team accordingly.
Responsibilities
  • Provide operational support for the deployment, recovery, and repair of a North Pacific pilot fleet. Initial focus on communications with the intent of broadening ownership through training.
  • Operate, maintain, and repair offshore communications hardware / software. These may include various radio protocols, satellite communications, and networking infrastructure.
  • Participate in cross training with other disciplines (mechanical, hydraulic, deck operations, etc.).
  • Train other team members on communications hardware, software, and theory.
  • Work alongside engineering to commission and test new equipment utilized for offshore operations
  • Collaborate with engineering to improve existing and develop new means for offshore operations
  • Assist in maintenance of owned equipment.
  • Travel abroad to train crews internationally on the novel operations developed during pilot testing.
Required Qualifications
  • Experience working offshore for extended periods
  • Demonstrated hands-on experience operating and repairing communications equipment in a marine, offshore, military, or comparable remote/field environment
  • Willingness and ability to both lead training and participate in inter-discipline training
  • Ability to travel up to 50% of year offshore
  • Ability to travel 300+ miles offshore
  • Holder of active TWIC or have ability to obtain.
  • Ability to adhere to and promote a culture of safety
Desired Qualifications
  • Understanding of basic AC and DC electrical theory
  • Exposure to mechanical and hydraulic industrial equipment
  • Experience participating in the fabrication and commissioning of new industrial equipment
  • Experience interfacing with engineering teams
  • Experience operating and maintaining PLC systems
Schedule & Availability
  • This position is based on a rotational offshore schedule, working long shifts while offshore to support 24/7 operations.
  • While on hitch, you should expect 12-hour days, seven days per week, in a dynamic offshore environment.
  • The Offshore Technician is a frontline role; flexibility for weather, vessel availability, and mission timelines is required.
  • Travel overseas will be required.
Compensation and Benefits
If hired for this full-time role, you will receive:
  • Cash compensation of $100,000 - $140,000.
  • Equity in the company. We're all owners and if we're successful, this equity should be far and away the most valuable component of your compensation.
  • A benefits package that helps you take care of yourself and your family, including:
    • Flexible paid time off
    • Health insurance (the company pays 100% of gold level PPO plan for full time employees, their partners, and dependents)
    • Dental insurance (the company pays 100% for full time employees and 100% for their partners and dependents)
    • Vision insurance (the company pays 100% for full time employees, their partners, and dependents)
    • Disability insurance (the company pays 100% for a policy to provide long term financial support if you become disabled)
    • Ability to contribute to tax-advantaged accounts, including 401(k), health FSA, and dependent care FSA
  • Relocation assistance to facilitate your move to Portland (if needed).
Location
This positional is rotational and thus could accommodate individuals outside of the Portland area. However, our offices, lab, and shop are located in Portland, Oregon. Candidates residing in the Pacific Northwest are preferred.
