ABOUT THE TEAM

The Seabed Sentry team is responsible for Maritime Domain Awareness providing subsea autonomous sensing and communication across critical commercial and defense mission sets. You'll operate in a fast-paced environment where small empowered teams move with urgency to deliver cutting-edge maritime capabilities from concept to deployment in months, not years. We bias toward action, embrace ambiguity, and expect technical program managers to drive execution with minimal bureaucracy — because the mission and the warfighter can't wait.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Work within a team of multidisciplinary engineers and specialists throughout the life of AUV through integration, test, verification, and demonstration efforts.
• Ensure successful execution of programs in accordance with desired requirements, on schedule, and on budget.
• Software Product Management: Own the product backlog and near-term roadmap for software/application layers of the acoustic mesh networking solution. Prioritize features, fixes, and technical debt based on customer feedback, field results, and demonstration objectives. Drive release planning tied to field schedules—ensure what ships to the water works in the water. Maintain a tight feedback loop: every field event generates inputs that improve the next build
• Demonstration Planning & Product Readiness: Own the demonstration roadmap: define what we show, when, and why it matters to the customer's mission and acquisition timeline. Drive product readiness for field events—coordinate feature prioritization, system configuration, and release timing across hardware and software teams. Manage all field event logistics: scheduling, range/vessel coordination, equipment staging, and go/no-go readiness decisions. Build repeatable playbooks while maintaining flexibility to adapt to rapid timelines and shifting customer needs.
