Ocean Atomics LLC is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to a workplace free of discrimination and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law. We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations; if you need an accommodation during the application process, contact info@oceanatomics.com.

Role Description The Electrical Lead commands the high-voltage distribution, power management, and grid-synchronization architectures of Ocean Atomics’ floating energy platforms, driving the electrical power systems engineering discipline required to secure class and regulatory approvals for our fleet. This role owns the vital energy pathways that link our platforms to advanced reactor outputs and onshore utility grids. You will own the main generation busses, substations, and electrical safety networks from initial concept through operational deployment. Your primary directive is to enforce rigid interface boundaries to ensure our conventional platforms are natively pre-engineered for post-delivery nuclear integration. By delivering survivable, highly reproducible, and modular power infrastructure, you establish the electrical backbone of our vessels, completely eliminating electrical integration and transmission risk across the entire fleet lifecycle. Primary Responsibilities - Command High-Voltage and Grid Architecture: Lead the engineering, configuration, and optimization of the platform’s high-voltage distribution networks, power management systems, and grid-synchronization architectures. - Own Generation Busses and Substations: Architect and manage the design of main generation busses, onboard substations, transformers, and electrical safety networks from initial layout through deployment. - Enforce Rigid Electrical Interface Boundaries: Establish and safeguard strict electrical interface boundaries to ensure conventional power management systems natively accept advanced reactor outputs post-fabrication. - Secure Energy Transmission Pathways: Design and validate the critical marine-to-shore electrical links, ensuring safe, stable, and efficient power transmission to onshore utility grids. - Deliver Modular and Survivable Infrastructure: Build highly resilient, reproducible, and modular power plant configurations that minimize shipyard fabrication complexity and enhance asset survivability. - Support Class and Regulatory Approvals: Generate the electrical single-line diagrams, load analyses, short-circuit calculations, and technical data packages required to clear ABS classification society gates and USCG flag state reviews. Qualifications - Education: Bachelor’s or advanced degree in Electrical Engineering, Marine Engineering, or a strictly related power systems engineering discipline. - Experience: 8+ years of experience specializing in marine electrical systems, high-voltage offshore distribution, utility grid integration, or large-scale marine energy networks. - Technical Mastery: Deep proficiency in high-voltage power generation engineering, switchgear specification, protective relay coordination, and grid-synchronization methodologies, coupled with an authoritative understanding of classification society electrical rules (e.g., ABS, DNV) and marine codes (IEEE 45). - Leadership Posture: A highly disciplined, technically rigorous engineer who possesses total command over electrical systems physics, executes complex power-management trade-offs under tight structural constraints, and drives progress across fast-paced design loops. Why this matters Every industry on Earth needs scalable, clean energy, and the ocean is the ideal place to unlock it. Joining Ocean Atomics means building real, lasting infrastructure — the kind that powers generations. The world needs abundant energy. Let's make it happen.
