At Navier, we are building America's next-generation maritime company. Our mission is to make waterways as accessible as our highways and to build the most compelling, zero-emission marine vessels that enable a new era of clean waterborne transportation. We have recently launched N30, America's first and the world's longest range electric hydrofoiling boat. N30 is 10x more efficient than traditional gas boats, revolutionizing the way we move goods and people on the water and unlocking a new form of scalable water transportation for 46% of the world's population living in congested coastal cities.
We are an adventurous, close-knit team backed by some of the most prominent tech leaders and well known venture firms in Silicon Valley. Our leaders are MIT, Berkeley and CMU graduates with extensive expertise in aerospace, maritime, autonomous systems and robotics. Join us as we embark on the next phase of exciting growth!
