Full Job Posting

About Seasats:

At Seasats, we're passionate about delivering maritime robotics solutions to redefine the maritime industry. Our primary products are unmanned surface vessels (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

  • 8+ years of experience in infrastructure, DevOps, release engineering, or platform roles, ideally owning delivery and packaging processes at scale
  • Strong experience with cloud infrastructure and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar)
  • Deep understanding of Linux systems internals, packaging formats, and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) as deployable units
  • Experience building and maintaining delivery pipelines and build/packaging automation (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar)
  • Experience with versioning schemes and artifact repositories (semantic versioning, package registries, or similar)
  • Proficiency in Python, Go, or Bash for automation and tooling
  • Demonstrated ability to independently scope and lead infrastructure projects
  • Systems-level thinking: comfortable tracing how software, firmware, and hardware components on the vehicle interact, and able to spot where a change in one will ripple into another
  • Track record of integrating tools, teams, and third-party systems into a single, cohesive workflow, rather than optimizing any one piece in isolation
  • Strong technical communication skills, with the judgment to balance speed, reliability, and cost
  • Experience supporting robotics, IoT, or other fleets of remote/edge devices
  • Familiarity with over-the-air (OTA) update and packaging systems for embedded or edge software
  • Experience with GovCloud, ITAR/export-controlled environments, or other regulated infrastructure
  • Experience with database administration (PostgreSQL, time-series databases)
  • Familiarity with security scanning, compliance automation, and secrets management
