The Software Engineering team is nestled within our Embedded & Software Engineering department. It is a dynamic, nimble, high-profile group tasked with leveraging, obtaining, and owning the diverse technical expertise and capabilities required to fulfill critical, foundational product development functions. Its primary function is to deliver world class, Linux based, system management and user interface functionality to Seakeeper products. It is a flat team, managing projects through a Scrum workflow that allows maximum exposure to a variety of projects and systems within the group.

You’ll be involved in a myriad of projects and have opportunities for feature ownership and process ownership as time progresses. Seakeeper has heavily invested in vertical integration for our Linux subsystem, we control all the hardware and the software, so you'll get to play a diverse role on the software side of that equation.

It’s true that we make extraordinary products, but our favorite part about Seakeeper is our people! We love the culture we have built and are aggressively protective of our team atmosphere. This is why we value your cultural fit as equally as we value your technical contributions. With a palpable passion for what we do, we work hard, move fast and are constantly pushing (or should we say crushing) boundaries.

That means there is no room for jerks!

We operate with the nimbleness and growth mindset of a scrappy startup. Throughout the organization, we take ownership and accountability for our ultimate team success by openly and actively seeking out constructive feedback on how we can improve. We believe great ideas…
