Working at Blue Robotics
Looking to dive into the world of marine technology? At Blue Robotics, we’re building the tools that power ocean exploration, research, and innovation around the globe. From engineering and software development to manufacturing, operations, and customer support and success roles, there are plenty of ways to make an impact.
Together, we’re enabling the future of marine robotics by making underwater technology more open and accessible. Explore our career opportunities below and join our crew!
We are an equal opportunity employer offering competitive pay, benefits, and perks.
Blue Robotics makes affordable, high-quality hardware and software for marine robotics – from underwater thrusters and ROVs to autonomous surface vehicles and the software that runs them. What does this really mean? We design cool tech for use underwater that allows tons of people and organizations to pursue their audacious dreams of exploring and learning about our oceans and waterways.
We have a small and vibrant design team in Victoria, BC, with a collaborative spirit that is both humble and bold. We work together to navigate all design steps from the whiteboard to fully tested, volume-manufactured products.
We are looking to add someone to join our team who thinks about the world a little differently—someone who is already noticing that designs must strike a balance between technical elegance, manufacturability, and usability. We’re searching for a person who is keen to expand their skills and capabilities, who yearns to make courageous and creative choices in their designs while embracing both the advantages and limitations of modern manufacturing processes.

As our products become more advanced and our production volume increases, maintaining strong, scalable quality systems is critical to ensuring reliability in the field. We are looking for a Quality Engineer who will take ownership of both day-to-day inspection operations and long-term quality system development across manufacturing, new product introduction, and field support.
This role sits at the center of our manufacturing and engineering teams, working closely with production, supply chain, and design engineering to ensure that quality is built into every stage of the product lifecycle—from incoming materials through final assembly and field performance.
The ideal candidate is hands-on, highly detail-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-moving manufacturing environment where they will directly shape inspection systems, measurement methods, and corrective actions that improve product reliability at scale.

While we already provide a bunch of handy electronics for our customers to tackle all sorts of design challenges, our goal is to enhance our existing catalog and expand into some more challenging and sophisticated areas. To succeed, we need to start growing our team, adding bright, creative people who are driven to attempt new things, push through tough problems, and enjoy the journey!
We are looking to add someone to our team who thinks beyond cookbook electronics, someone who is already noticing that designs must strike a balance between technical elegance, manufacturability, and usability. We’re searching for a person who is keen to expand their skills and capabilities, who yearns to make courageous and creative choices in their designs, while embracing both the advantages and limitations of modern manufacturing processes.
We’re on a mission to enable the future of marine robotics by designing and manufacturing low-cost, high-performance components because we believe marine robotics should be accessible to everyone. Just as our customers depend on our products, we depend on our supply chain systems and global network of suppliers. We are proud of what we have been able to accomplish with our current systems and processes, but to scale up we need more help!
We are looking for a hands-on Senior Supply Chain Manager to lead our procurement, supplier management, sourcing strategy, and supply chain operations. As the Senior Supply Chain Manager you will ensure we have the right suppliers, materials, and systems to support reliable production. We work with a global network of suppliers spanning precision machining, injection molding, PCB fabrication, PCB assembly, cable assemblies, electronics manufacturing, and contract manufacturing. As our product line evolves we will depend on you to refine and strengthen our systems, expand supplier networks, and map out our inventory investment.

Blue Robotics is looking for a Packer to join our production team to package parts for underwater vehicles, thrusters, sensors, enclosures, and other products. As the Packer, each component that you package will go out into the world to help explore shipwrecks, study endangered species, map the ocean floor, and generally advance human understanding of the oceans.
Because our customers depend on our products performing consistently when they are out in the field, our manufacturing team is focused on continuous process improvement. For us that means you must be someone who is willing to learn and ask questions, comfortable receiving feedback, and can be trusted to work consistently with minimal supervision. Our products are being changed and updated frequently, so someone who is flexible and able to learn quickly is an ideal fit for this position.
We provide hands-on training and frequent check-ins to ensure you are comfortable and confident following packaging procedures. Within 30 days you will be comfortable with many of our products and by three months, we expect you to be able to fly solo; packaging products consistently and efficiently.
We’re looking for a human to help on the front lines of our Customer Success team. Nearly all of our communications with our community happen over email, and we pride ourselves on fast, friendly, and thoughtful service. We’re looking for someone who is a quick learner and excited about the future of ocean tech – this is a great opportunity to build a career in marine robotics. Do you know what a thruster is? Do you know what fair trade agreements are? If not, that’s okay – we’ll teach you ALL the things!
We hire people for their potential – not just the job they’re doing today. Customer Success is one of the best places to learn our business. You’ll work with customers from around the world, collaborate with nearly every team at Blue Robotics, and gain a deep understanding of our products, community, and mission. We believe in hiring great people for their potential, and many teammates have grown into new opportunities across the company as their interests and skills evolved.
You should be a skilled multitasker with strong attention to detail. Our customers are integrating our products into end uses around the world, and it will be your job to make sure those products make it to their final destination. That could mean battling the DHL gods to get something pushed through customs, or it could mean being a detective and tracking down when a certain screw with a specific thread size will be back in stock.
We use AI as part of our workflow, and you should be comfortable using it, but our correspondences need to feel human. We’re not looking for someone who relies on AI to do the writing, you should be able to create clear, well-structured emails on your own.
We are seeking a smart, stoked, and hungry human to join our team and help get our technology out into the wild. The ideal candidate will have an interest in the ocean and/or technology, have experience working with remote teams, and have some customer service experience. We are so excited to meet you!!
