What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Network and Infrastructure Engineer position at Seasats?
Role: Senior Network and Infrastructure Engineer
Location: San Diego, CA (in-office)
Salary: $160,000-$210,000/ yr base stock options, and other benefits
Role Overview
This is an exciting opportunity to help scale the backend systems that support our growing fleet of field-deployed robots. Seasats has autonomous vehicles in customer hands across the globe and is now aggressively scaling our vehicle production and deployment rates. We’re looking for an experienced DevOps engineer who’s excited to learn the current system and work to make it ever more resilient, serviceable, and awesome.
Seasats’ customers depend on our vehicles to complete high value (and at times dangerous) missions. The systems you’ll be managing cut across all of our products and services and as such are critical to the whole organization. Much of your work will be on the backend, but you’ll also contribute to systems that run on the vehicles themselves.
Role Details
You’ll be reporting directly to our CTO and will be working closely with him and the rest of the software team. Over time you’ll be expected to take ownership of the system and operate autonomously, identifying and executing tasks that will sometimes be glamorous and rewarding but in other cases will be time-consuming and low-visibility to most of the team.
On a Day-by-day Basis You Will Be
At Seasats, we're passionate about delivering maritime robotics solutions to redefine the maritime industry. Our primary products are autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs), designed to carry sensors at sea for months at a time. Our ASVs provide persistent monitoring and data acquisition to defense, scientific, and commercial customers, and have autonomously crossed both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. After thousands of years in which the only way to gather information from the ocean was to put people on a boat, these uncrewed vessels are transforming how humanity monitors and interacts with the ocean. Here, you’ll find the space and opportunity to do your life’s best work.
Along With Your Salary, You’ll Receive Perks Including
When you apply, you’ll be asked to provide a resume and answer a few screening questions.
Please note that we are currently unable to sponsor employment visas, so candidates must be independently authorized to work in the United States.
We appreciate diverse perspectives and life experiences, and we’re committed to building a team that reflects a wide range of backgrounds. Seasats provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment and prohibits discrimination of any type based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, or gender identity), national origin, age, disability, genetic information, marital status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected under federal, state, or local law.
We look forward to reviewing your application!
