Jobs at Ocean Infinity

Provide technical leadership and develop safety-critical software for autonomous underwater and surface vehicles. Responsibilities include real-time control, navigation, mission execution, fault management, sensor integration, communications, safety subsystems, simulations, hardware-in-the-loop testing, design reviews, and sea trials. The role requires collaboration with multidisciplinary engineering and field teams to validate autonomous systems in operational environments.

Lead the laboratory management system and ensure compliance with ISO/IEC 17025, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001. Maintain controlled documentation, accreditation readiness, quality objectives, KPIs, calibration programs, competency records, and audit readiness. Coordinate management reviews, support audits, manage non-conformances and corrective actions, and drive continual improvement while providing independent oversight rather than performing routine laboratory testing.

Processes raw geotechnical laboratory test outputs into accurate, traceable datasets for review and reporting. Performs quality-control checks, maintains processing records, manages laboratory data, updates tracking systems, supports report preparation, and helps develop data-processing tools. The role also contributes to equipment verification, accreditation activities, corrective actions, and continual improvement while collaborating with laboratory and engineering teams.

Designs, builds, secures, and integrates end-to-end communications architectures for unmanned surface and underwater vehicles. Responsibilities include network architecture, IP and firewall configuration, radio and satellite communications, security requirements, trade studies, cloud services, hardware testing, and collaboration with multidisciplinary engineering and operations teams. The role requires defense experience, secure network engineering expertise, and eligibility for UK national security clearance.

Leads product and portfolio operations for the technology organization, establishing agile ways of working, governance, documentation, performance reporting, resource planning, finance processes, onboarding, and audit support. Owns Jira and Confluence standards, portfolio dashboards, discovery pipelines, product delivery frameworks, and operational testing templates. Partners with product, design, engineering, and leadership teams to improve decision-making, capacity visibility, documentation quality, and cross-functional execution.

Own category strategies, sourcing pipelines, negotiations, contracts, supplier performance, and commercial risk management within a maritime robotics environment. Partner with project, engineering, operational, and budget stakeholders to deliver compliant, cost-effective supply solutions. Lead complex RFx processes, market and total-cost analysis, supplier governance, and reporting. Line-manage and develop a team of 1–4 Buyers while ensuring procurement policy, ERP data quality, ESG, and ISO alignment.

Coordinates post-contract supplier expediting for physical goods, ensuring on-time delivery, accurate NetSuite records, and visibility of inbound materials. Manages revised schedules, warehouse and vessel deliveries, supplier nonconformance, invoice discrepancies, delivery-risk escalation, and weekly OTIF reporting. Works across procurement, logistics, warehouse, finance, project, and vessel teams to prioritize critical materials and support global maritime operations.

Provides technical leadership and design authority for complex maritime defence and autonomous systems programmes. Owns technical baselines, system architecture, requirements, interfaces, configuration control, integration, verification, validation and engineering assurance. Leads technical reviews, manages technical risks, ensures compliance with defence and safety standards, and serves as the senior technical interface for customers, suppliers and programme leadership. Mentors multidisciplinary engineering teams and provides independent technical oversight across programme delivery.

Designs, integrates, verifies, and deploys marine robotic systems including USVs and AUVs. Owns system architecture, requirements, interfaces, documentation, trade studies, configuration control, integration, troubleshooting, testing, and sea trials. Collaborates across mechanical, electrical, software, operations, and customer teams to deliver reliable systems in demanding environments. Familiarity with navigation, control systems, sensor fusion, communications, autonomous platforms, and SysML is desirable.

Provides up to third-line support for internally developed software in live production environments. Resolves incidents, performs root cause analysis, manages SLAs and high-priority tickets, supports frequent releases, and participates in 24x7 on-call coverage. The role also mentors IT team members, improves reliability metrics, collaborates with development teams, and uses Linux, containerization, scripting, programming, observability, and ITSM tools to diagnose and resolve issues.

Lead technical direction and hands-on development for full-stack products across C#/.NET, Node/TypeScript, React, and PostgreSQL. Own architecture, delivery planning, code quality, backend design, and feature delivery while collaborating with Product, Design, and QA. Mentor engineers, facilitate Agile ceremonies, review code, document processes, and promote AI-assisted development and engineering best practices.

Design, build, and integrate production robotics software for uncrewed marine vessels. Develop ROS2 control, navigation, and motion-planning systems; integrate sensors, actuators, PLCs, and embedded controllers; support testing and field deployments; debug deployed systems; improve observability and CI/CD; and provide technical leadership through code reviews, mentoring, and architecture guidance.

Design, build, and maintain full-stack applications supporting autonomous marine operations. Develop backend services, React interfaces, databases, APIs, and real-time event-driven data pipelines. Make technical decisions, document systems, follow quality practices, and mentor junior engineers. Work with C#/.NET or TypeScript/Node stacks while collaborating autonomously in a fast-paced environment.

Lead the development and continuous improvement of through-life support capabilities for complex maritime, autonomous, and remote systems. The role oversees integrated logistics support, maintenance strategies, reliability planning, technical support services, spares and obsolescence management, configuration control, customer support, and lifecycle performance reporting. It coordinates engineering, operations, supply chain, production, and commercial teams to improve asset availability, reliability, maintainability, and mission readiness throughout service life.

Provides senior technical ownership and engineering direction for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle portfolio. Leads system architecture, multidisciplinary technical decisions, integration, verification, trials, production readiness, operational deployment, supplier assurance, and technical validation. Balances performance, risk, cost, and schedule while translating product strategy into executable engineering priorities. Mentors engineering teams and influences product, programme, customer, and partner stakeholders. The role requires significant AUV or complex subsea systems experience and UK national security clearance.

Leads integration of complex multidisciplinary systems across hardware, software, firmware, electrical, mechanical, and systems engineering disciplines. Owns integration strategies, schedules, build activities, readiness reviews, verification, validation, technical risk management, defect resolution, root cause analysis, and corrective actions. Coordinates engineering, test, production, suppliers, customers, and delivery partners to achieve safe, compliant, verified, and operational system capability.

Lead financial delivery for complex, multi-currency programmes by owning P&L, reporting, budgeting, forecasting, cash flow, KPIs, governance, and commercial analysis. Partner with programme leaders, business units, Group Finance, and customers on investment decisions, contract negotiations, performance management, and risk identification.
