About Seasats:
At Seasats, we're passionate about delivering maritime robotics solutions to redefine the maritime industry. Our primary products are unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), designed to carry sensors at sea for months at a time. Our USVs 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:
Stock options
Competitive insurance (including a 99% employer-covered Gold HMO plan or other options)
401k matching up to 4% of salary
Four free lunches per week
An employee activity fund
A pet-friendly office
Unlimited/Flex PTO
Hiring Notes:
When applying, 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!
Qualifications
- You are an organized, accountable Program Manager who enjoys owning outcomes rather than just tasks. You're comfortable managing a budget and a schedule with the same rigor you bring to a customer relationship, and you know how to get results from people who don't report to you.

- Experience as a PM on either small engineering development projects or maritime operations contracts
- Demonstrated ability to develop and manage project plans, schedules, staffing plans, and budgets
- Experience supporting proposal efforts by scoping cost, schedule, and technical approach
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to manage a customer relationship on execution matters and to task and monitor matrixed personnel across functional teams
- Demonstrated a proactive, organized approach to identifying risk and keeping projects on schedule and on budget
- Proficiency with Microsoft’s suite of tools (Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Project, Teams) for planning tracking, and reporting
- Ability to obtain a Security Clearance
- Due to export control requirements applicable to this position, we are only able to consider U.S. persons, as defined by U.S. export control laws. This includes U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and individuals granted asylee or refugee status
- This position will require you to travel away from home and even outside the US for short periods of time; travel could consist of 25-35% for customer facing events and visits. Seasats provides a travel stipend while you're on the road, so you can expect to save money while on work trips.
