About us
DeepSea is a maritime technology leader, providing a unified optimisation platform that helps shipping companies cut fuel consumption, reduce emissions, and transform vessel performance across entire fleets.
Built on the most advanced maritime AI data pool in the world, DeepSea’s platform powers everything from vessel monitoring to advanced automation - helping clients achieve measurable results with clarity, speed and scale.
We are trusted by some of the world’s most forward-thinking ship owners and operators, and our team spans Greece, the UK, Armenia, Romania, and Japan. As the shipping industry undergoes enormous change, we are at the centre of that transition - helping our customers take control, reduce risk, and build competitive advantage.
About the position
We are seeking an experienced Hardware Design Engineer to lead the electronics development lifecycle for our marine IoT products. In this role, you will be the primary owner of hardware design, from architecture through production deployment. Your core responsibilities will include designing analog and digital circuits, creating and optimizing PCB layouts, overseeing prototyping and validation, and managing the transition to manufacturing. You will ensure our electronic devices meet stringent marine type-approval standards, including designing robust enclosures that comply with international maritime regulations (IP ratings, EMC, vibration, temperature extremes). Working closely with Embedded Software Engineers, you will drive hardware quality assurance processes and collaborate with manufacturing partners to ensure consistent production quality. This position requires expertise in both technical design and practical implementation of electronics systems in industrial environments.
Our hardware platform, Neuro, is an IoT cloud and IoT sensor swarm which uses a state-of-the-art IoT stack for gathering and preprocessing measurements. It handles all standard and custom marine/industrial protocols and performs edge computing by applying noise removal filters, calculating metadata, compressing and encrypting transmittable measurements, and is installed onboard vessels all over the world. Our software products are used by shipping company engineers and captains to optimise the technical operations and navigation of their vessels based on our in-house developed AI and optimisation algorithms. You will need to gain a good understanding of the vision and underlying technology behind our products and the needs that they satisfy.
