Composite Technician

Composite Technician

As we build more and more autonomous surface vehicles, we are seeking a skilled Composite Technician to join our manufacturing team. In this role, you'd work in a shop alongside other composite technicians, laying up composite parts for infusion, gluing in major structural components, and trimming parts. If you have a can-do attitude and hands-on experience in composite lay-up, fabrication, and repair processes (particularly in marine applications), keep reading.

In this role, you'll work with carbon fiber, fiberglass, and other advanced materials to construct and maintain lightweight, high-strength components for our autonomous boats. Specifically, you will:

• Trim, drill, and assemble composite parts to meet design specifications and tolerances
• Prepare molds and tools, including cleaning, waxing, and applying release agents
• Interpret engineering drawings, work orders, and technical documentation
• Conduct inspections of in-process and finished parts to ensure quality standards are met
• Maintain safe and clean working conditions, following all safety and material handling protocols
• Collaborate with engineers and production teams to improve processes and product performance
• Assist in the repair and modification of composite components as needed

You're a hands-on person, excited to learn new skills, processes and contribute to our mission of building reliable boats with cutting-edge tech. You've probably built some really cool things before, either at work or in your garage or both. You're also:

• A team player
• Attentive to detail with a pride in your work
• Diligent in time keeping and communication
• Always wanting to improve and add to the manufacturing process
• Proficient in the use of most basic power tools and hand tools
• Comfortable performing hand layups, vacuum bagging, infusion, and other composite fabrication techniques
• Experienced in using epoxy glues and bonding composite parts
• Looking for a supportive and growth focused work environment

At Seasats, we're passionate about delivering maritime robotics solutions to redefine the maritime industry. Our primary products are autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs), designed to carry sensors at sea for months at a time. Our ASVs 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

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.
