Founded by U.S. and U.K. veterans, Marcurius brings decades of frontline experience across Special Operations and Intelligence missions, with deep expertise in asymmetric warfare and the real-world employment of unmanned systems.

Marcurius is building a new kind of unmanned systems company- multi-domain, multi-platform, and mission-driven. We integrate battle-proven platforms, resilient command-and-control architectures, and operator-led doctrine to deliver capabilities that work in contested environments. Our initial focus is the rapid fielding of advanced Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs) for modern maritime operations.

Role Overview

Marcurius is seeking a hands-on EHS Lead to strengthen environmental, health, and safety practices across our Clearwater engineering and manufacturing operations.

You will develop practical EHS programs, deliver training, coach operational teams, and verify effective risk controls across prototype manufacturing, assembly, integration, and testing. This is a lead-level individual contributor role working closely with the EHS & Compliance Lead.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain practical EHS procedures, risk assessments, inspection tools, training records, and corrective-action tracking.
• Apply relevant OSHA General Industry requirements (29 CFR 1910) and recordkeeping/reporting rules (29 CFR 1904); identify and elevate specialist obligations.
• Lead job hazard analyses and task risk assessments, applying the hierarchy of controls to new or changing equipment, materials, processes, and tests.
• Support controls for hazardous energy/LOTO, machinery, electrical work, lifting, chemicals/SDS, hot work, batteries, fire, and emergency response; assess other exposure risks as applicable.
• Design and deliver site inductions, toolbox talks, and role-specific training; coach supervisors and maintain training and competence records.
• Build a positive safety culture through shop-floor engagement, practical guidance, employee participation, and near-miss reporting.
• Conduct inspections and internal audits, prioritize findings, verify corrective actions, and report significant risks and overdue controls.
• Support incident investigations, root-cause analysis, lessons learned, and accurate OSHA records and reporting through authorized processes.
• Coordinate environmental controls for chemicals, waste, spills, and storage, seeking specialist advice on applicable federal, Florida, and local obligations.
• Support EHS readiness for contractors, builds, trials, and emergency drills; coordinate safe access and emergency arrangements with IT/Security and operational teams.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in occupational safety and health, environmental health, engineering, science, or a closely related discipline.
• BCSP ASP or CSP, or comparable recognized professional safety credential with demonstrated U.S. regulatory competence; ASP holders should have a development path toward CSP.
• Typically 4–8 years of progressive EHS experience in manufacturing, energy, defense, aerospace, or a comparable operational environment; equivalent capability and results considered.
• Practical experience applying OSHA General Industry requirements, conducting risk assessments and incident investigations, and implementing corrective actions.
• Experience developing EHS procedures or management-system elements and delivering effective operational safety training.
• Strong communication, coaching, documentation, and cross-functional leadership skills, with the ability to influence without direct management authority.
• Working awareness of cybersecurity, CMMC Level 2, and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) as they relate to facility access, visitors, records, and incident escalation.

Preferred Experience

• BCSP Certified Safety Professional (CSP) credential.
• ISO 45001 or ISO 14001 auditor training or a relevant postgraduate qualification.
• Current OSHA General Industry Outreach trainer authorization through the applicable OSHA 501 route.
• Experience with battery systems, electrical testing, marine trials, hazardous materials, or defense/aerospace manufacturing.

What Success Looks Like

• Practical EHS procedures and controls that teams consistently follow.
• Effective training and demonstrated employee competence.
• Timely closure of significant risks and fewer recurring audit findings.
• Reliable inspections, incident learning, and constructive near-miss reporting.

Work Environment

• Full-time, fully on-site role at our Clearwater, Florida facility, with regular shop-floor engagement and occasional approved off-site support.
• Work alongside Engineering, Production, Quality, Test, Facilities, and other operational teams.
• Follow site induction, PPE, access, and competence requirements; support safe manufacturing and test activities.
• Must be authorized to work in the United States; any sponsorship, controlled-access, or clearance requirements will be assessed for the assignment.
