Oceaneering knows robotics. From operating the world's largest ROV fleet conducting mission-critical operations deep under the oceans, to deploying cutting-edge autonomous vehicles in theme park rides and automotive operations, we know a thing or two about applying robotics technologies and solid cross-disciplinary engineering to help our clients bring automation to some of the harshest, dangerous, and most demanding environments.

Our group investigates and develops new markets, products, technologies and business models in order to drive long-term growth for our lines of business. We work hard to continue being a leader in mobile robotics solutions for customers' mission-critical needs, working with like-minded partners and taking risks in delivering new and innovative solutions that push the industry and push ourselves.

Here's your chance to be a part of something big, with the mission focus and pace of a startup, and the stability and resources of a large company backing you up.

The Electrical Engineer is a key member of the New Products Development core team and plays a critical role in the success of prototyping and testing new product and service offerings for our commercial business units in subsea robotics, material handling automation, and in people mover applications, among others.

This is a hybrid position with the ability to work remotely 3-4 days a week and in the office 1-2 days per week.
