Descrizione del lavoro

Saronic Technologies seeks a Forward Deployed Mechanical Engineer to bring laboratory innovations to the fleet. You will deploy systems in real maritime environments, integrating payloads, debugging field issues, and iterating hardware for reliability.

This hands‑on role combines lab work, fabrication, and waterfront testing to advance autonomous platforms. Responsibilities include dockside trials, rapid mechanical prototyping, and close collaboration with Electrical, Software, and Autonomy

Competenze

• Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field.
• 3+ years of experience working on integrated mechanical/electromechanical systems, preferably in fielded or mission‑critical environments.
• Hands‑on expertise in mechanical assembly and fabrication (CNC, sheet metal, 3D printing, etc.).
• Hands‑on expertise in rapid prototyping and system‑level debugging.

Mansioni

• Design systems to support mechanical integration of novel systems and payloads onto Autonomous Service Vessels (ASVs) and maritime platforms.
• Lead rapid prototyping efforts (mechanical) to support field experimentation and platform evolution.
• Perform mechanical bring‑up, integration, and troubleshooting of structural, sensor‑mount, and payload subsystems.
• Own dockside and sea trials ‑ prepare vessels, install new mechanical hardware packages, and perform system validation in operationally relevant environments.
• Drive design‑for‑assembly and design‑for‑deployment feedback into mechanical product development.
• Work closely with cross‑functional teams, including Electrical, Software, and Autonomy Engineers, to evolve and harden system designs.
• Interface with suppliers and fabrication shops to support fast turnarounds of custom mechanical components.
• Contribute to documentation and training to support the scaling of deployment and manufacturing.
