We employ people who share our core values. We expect our people to be courageous, trustworthy, and conscientious, driven by a desire to do the right thing. We strive for excellence, work collaboratively, and are genuinely excited by our work.
We offer opportunities for our people to develop beyond their role and span a multitude of disciplines. These are open to all, regardless of background and experience level. Working with us means being part of a team that is harnessing technology and creativity to disrupt a traditional industry.
We are not your average workplace.

Define and implement a standardised, repeatable test methodology for all upgrades.
Provide expert support to vessel communication platforms when required.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver project milestones on time and to specification.
Contribute to other projects within the Integrated Systems Team to ensure no single point of failures exist.
Assist with troubleshooting, system improvements, and integration of new technologies.
Who you are:
Experienced in systems engineering, with a strong understanding of complex, distributed systems.
Comfortable taking ownership of critical systems and driving continuous improvement.
Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills, with a methodical and detail-oriented approach.
Familiar with virtual environments (VMs), networked systems, and hardware/software integration.
Able to plan, document, and execute structured maintenance and testing procedures.
Effective communicator, able to work both independently and collaboratively across teams.
Adaptable and capable of managing multiple priorities across operational support and project work.
Desirable:
Experience with maritime systems or vessel-based technologies.
Familiarity with Clear-Com and Mimer or similar communication systems.
Experience with video systems, streaming, or video distribution technologies.
Knowledge of firmware/software lifecycle management and OEM coordination.
Experience developing standardised test frameworks or validation processes.
Salary for this position: Up to £65,000 per annum
Salary: The salary varies for this position as we are recruiting in multiple regional locations and job grades. The salary process is based on skills, abilities, and experience required.
What you can expect:
At Ocean Infinity, we believe in creating equal opportunities for all, celebrating each and everyone’s differences. We are driven by transforming the industry, through our technology, thoughts, behaviours and actions. Being inclusive and respectful to all is fundamental to who we are. It is the right thing to do and enables innovation and creativity to thrive.
