The National Deep Submergence Facility (NDSF) at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution is looking to hire software engineers to join our team. NDSF designs, builds, and operates underwater robots with unique science-focused capabilities for the ocean sciences community. Our submersibles are used around the world in some of the deepest parts of the ocean to survey and collect scientific samples and data. Our development and operational goals are focused on providing the tools and assets necessary for users to investigate the world’s oceans.
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution is always hiring engineers to join projects like the DSV Alvin submersible group that led the expedition that discovered RMS Titanic.
Apologies for that. I'll put my e-mail address in the account profile; please include which role(s) you are interested in and I'll forward to Human Resources.
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution is a leading ocean research institution. Our engineers build autonomous and remotely-operated underwater vehicles and observing platforms to explore and understand the ocean, and develop the software that scientists use to make new discoveries every day.
We have open positions for software engineers, electrical engineers, data scientists, system administrators, and more to help us accelerate our research on vital topics such as climate change. Some positions are remote/hybrid, and we welcome candidates who have no direct experience in oceanography.
- Support the systems that keep a global array of at-sea instruments humming along, providing scientists worldwide with open data about our climate and ocean health.
- Build the tools and platforms for exploring data on shore, like our data portal for harmful algal blooms, and at sea, like the loggers used across our fleet of research vessels.
- Develop behaviors for autonomous underwater vehicles to enable new missions, like protecting the arctic from environmental damage by detecting and mapping out oil spills under ice.
- Apply machine learning to unique data sets like dolphin whistles and plankton imagery to unlock new insights, not only in the data center but also at the edge on embedded systems making sense of the world in real time.
Alvin is still going strong nearly 60 years later, and the at-sea operations team is currently looking for early career mechanical and electrical engineers to keep the submersible ready to make scientific observations every day. (The Alvin menu these days is typically a peanut butter sandwich and a thermos of coffee.)
There are plenty of on-shore jobs too, including a just-posted senior software engineering lead for the AI and Embedded Technologies team, with more software-oriented jobs to be posted soon. Don't hesitate to apply, we do consider adaptable candidates from backgrounds outside of oceanography and robotics.
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a leader in ocean discovery and exploration, is seeking a Senior Applications Administrator to work with our science and engineering departments, supporting the software that powers our research.
