Full Job Description
ABOUT US: Collaborative autonomy is how self-tasking teams of machines will solve hard human problems, and HavocAI is an unquestioned leader in collaborative autonomy. We set the standard for autonomous surface vessels for a wide range of defense and commercial maritime missions. Success requires us to grow quickly, and we’re looking for teammates who are passionate about solving hard problems, about pushing the envelope, and about preventing conflict and saving lives. Ambition is welcome to apply within. About the Role: We are seeking an Electrical Engineer to join our Hardware Engineering team, with a primary focus on the design, specification, integration, and testing of electrical systems for uncrewed surface vessels (USVs) and other unmanned platforms. This role involves ownership of components and subsystems spanning power conversion, energy storage, RF and communications systems, signal distribution, and general electrical architecture. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience taking electrical hardware from concept through design, assembly, integration, and test—while collaborating closely with mechanical, software, and systems engineering teams to deliver robust, reliable solutions for maritime environments. Electrical System Design & Architecture - Design, specify, and integrate electrical subsystems ranging from power converters to radios, compute elements, harnesses, circuit protection, batteries, actuators and antennas. - Develop system-level electrical architectures for USVs, including power trees, grounding schemes, communications pathways, and redundancy strategies. - Evaluate electrical loads, routing, and environmental requirements to support vessel capabilities and mission payloads. - Conduct bench-level and on-vehicle testing to verify RF performance, signal integrity, interference mitigation, and link reliability. Wiring Harness & Component Integration - Produce wiring schematics, harness drawings, connector specifications, and interface defi
