Requirements

• Degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent experience • 4–8 years of experience designing and fielding mechanical systems in marine, robotics, aerospace, defense, or industrial contexts • Experience taking hardware from prototype to fielded system • Strong CAD and drawing discipline suitable for real fabrication • Comfortable working hands-on with hardware, tools, and test setups • Ability to operate independently while aligning with a system-level technical lead • Strong Plus • Experience with small vessels, marine structures, or offshore equipment • Experience designing for corrosion, sealing, and environmental exposure • Background in robotics or electromechanical system integration • Prior ownership of subsystems that had real operational consequences

Responsibilities

• Own detailed design and execution of major mechanical subsystems under the platform architecture • Translate system-level requirements into manufacturable mechanical designs • Produce CAD, drawings, and release packages for fabrication and assembly • Design structures, mounts, housings, and interfaces for marine loads and environments • Drive integration of mechanical systems with propulsion, electrical, and autonomy hardware • Support prototyping, assembly, and on-water testing • Diagnose field failures and iterate designs based on real operational data • Work with vendors and fabricators to close DFM and supply chain loops

Benefits

• $150K – $175K • Offers Equity • Standard Subsea is a startup building unmanned systems for the offshore industry. We develop uncrewed surface vessels (USVs) that autonomously deploy tethered remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to inspect subsea pipelines, telecom cables, and offshore infrastructure. Our goal is to deliver reliable subsea awareness at a fraction of the cost of traditional crewed vessels.
