Overview
We are seeking a Systems Engineer to help design, integrate, and deliver the next generation of marine robotic platforms, working across the full lifecycle from concept and requirements capture through to integration, verification, and deployment. You’ll combine systems thinking with hands-on engineering, collaborating closely with mechanical, electrical, software, and operations teams to turn ideas into field-proven capability. You’ll be embedded in the engineering team, contributing directly to builds, integration, troubleshooting, and sea trials to ensure complex, multi-disciplinary systems operate reliably in demanding real-world environments.
What You Will Be Doing
* Own system architecture — define and manage system-level requirements, interfaces, and architecture across USV and AUV platforms, ensuring clarity and alignment across engineering teams
* Maintain system documentation — develop and control requirements sets, ICDs, and system design descriptions that accurately reflect real-world behaviour and operational needs
* Lead system-level decisions — run trade studies, requirement decompositions, and design evaluations, balancing feasibility, risk, and operational constraints
* Support full lifecycle delivery — contribute from concept through deployment, including integration, verification, validation, configuration control, and change management
* Drive hands-on integration and trials — participate in hardware/software integration, testing, troubleshooting, and support sea trials and deployments, working closely with cross-functional teams and customers
Who You Are
* Experienced in systems engineering across the full lifecycle, with clear ownership of requirements, architecture, integration, and verification activities
* Technically strong, with the ability to interpret, challenge, and refine system-level designs, interfaces, and behaviours across mechanical, electrical, and software domains
* Hands-on, comfortable working with hardware, debugging integration issues, and supporting real-world testing and trials
* A clear communicator who can align diverse engineering teams, operational users, and external stakeholders around system-level priorities and decisions
* Structured and methodical, with a strong focus on reliability, traceability, and delivering systems that work in high-consequence environments
Desirable
* Understanding of navigation, control systems, and sensor fusion, particularly in autonomous or robotic platforms
* Experience with communication and networking systems such as acoustic modems, RF, or satellite communications
* Background working with USVs, AUVs, or other marine or autonomous systems
* Knowledge of model-based systems engineering approaches and tools such as SysML
Salary
The salary varies for this position as we are recruiting in multiple regional locations and job grades. The salary process is based on skills, abilities, and experience required.
