Software Engineer Intern will design, implement, test, and integrate software for autonomous surface vessels. Responsibilities include navigation, sensor integration, communication protocols, real-time decision-making, path planning, object detection, testing frameworks, hardware-in-the-loop testing, technical documentation, and cross-functional hardware integration. The role is full-time and on-site in Austin, Texas, from May through August 2027.

Support enterprise SaaS platforms through configuration, development, integrations, automation, documentation, monitoring, testing, and troubleshooting. The intern will work with analysts and developers to configure systems such as Salesforce, Workday, NetSuite, and Slack; write scripts or Apex logic; validate data flows and APIs; support user-acceptance testing; and resolve access or configuration issues. This is a full-time, in-office summer internship in Austin, Texas.

Support the design and analysis of autonomous surface vessels through hull-form development, hydrodynamic and stability calculations, CAD modeling, structural design, weight management, and autonomous-system integration. Assist with model testing, validation, design reviews, technical research, documentation, and client reports while collaborating with naval architects, engineers, and programmers. This is a full-time, in-office internship in Austin, Texas, from May through August 2027.

Lead design, integration, and testing of electrical and electronic systems for UUVs and subsea platforms, including power systems, embedded control boards, sensor and communication interfaces, PCB layouts, and ruggedized hardware. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams from architecture through field testing, troubleshoot hardware, select components for subsea reliability, and produce engineering documentation and test procedures.

Lead design, specification, and validation of ruggedized power generation, distribution, and conversion systems for autonomous maritime platforms. Produce drawings and analyses (EPLAs, short-circuit, voltage drop, harmonics), select components, conduct trade studies, support prototyping and at-sea trials, author documentation, and mentor junior engineers to ensure reliable, maintainable, and environmentally qualified power architectures.

Manage full-cycle recruiting: partner with hiring managers, source and screen high-volume technical and manufacturing candidates, maintain pipelines, improve interview processes, and ensure positive candidate experiences through offer negotiation.

Support product strategy, development, roadmap planning, stakeholder communication, and product team operations for autonomous maritime products. Collaborate closely with engineering, production, software, and mission operations teams, including work aboard ships and on production lines. Analyze customer needs, market trends, competition, and feedback; create documentation and presentations; and help translate technical product capabilities for technical and non-technical audiences.

Lead end-to-end integration and delivery of mission packages, payloads, and modules across autonomous maritime vessel programs. Coordinate engineering, product, production, quality, operations, customers, and strategic partners through design, testing, field deployment, and sustainment. Manage technical risks, configuration baselines, documentation, readiness, and change control while supporting demonstrations, customer engagements, and acceptance events. Translate requirements and field feedback into executable actions and product improvements.
