Key skills for this role
We’re hiring a Naval Architect Intern, for the Summer or Fall term. Summer internships begin in June, and Fall internships begin in September, with a minimum 12 week commitment, and a preferred commitment of 4 to 8 months.
As a Naval Architect Intern, you’ll work on initiatives that improve how onboard systems are integrated, deployed, and operated across commercial vessels. You’ll help solve complex, real-world engineering problems spanning mechanical integration, electrical systems, packaging, test, and deployment in demanding marine environments.
This role sits at the intersection of mechanical, electrical, and marine engineering. You’ll contribute to the integration of sensors, compute, power systems, cabling, enclosures, and onboard infrastructure that must operate reliably in harsh real-world conditions.
Our size allows interns to take significant ownership. We give interns autonomy on interdisciplinary projects that move quickly from idea to implementation. Our philosophy is to build and test in days or weeks, not months.
Because of this, a portfolio or evidence of hands-on building is required to apply . Show us projects, systems, competition work, research, or fabrication experience that reflect strong engineering fundamentals, execution, and curiosity.
Global trade runs on ships, and we’re redefining what’s possible at sea by leveraging modern technology.
We’re a small, hands-on team based in El Segundo building full-stack systems that perform in real operating conditions across vessels, ports, and fleets. We focus on practical, deployable technology that brings safety oversight, automation, and coordination to complex maritime environments.
Our founding team previously built and operated SpaceX’s Autonomous Spaceport Droneships, which are among the most advanced autonomous maritime systems ever deployed. Today, we work with leading U.S. operators to bring that same rigor and systems thinking to the next generation of maritime infrastructure.
