We created the Ocean Job Board to facilitate access to job postings in the marine community.
The board links directly to the career pages of ocean organizations and updates when jobs are posted or taken down. It's free to use, and all applications go directly to the hiring organization.
Please also check out the ocean job boards run by these organizations: Seven Seas Media, Ocean Careers, WiseOceans, American Fisheries Society, Marine Conservation Institute, Nature Tech and ClimateBase.
Posting a job is free. To add or remove your organization or ask a question, please email us at jobboard@schmidtmarine.org.
Monterey Bay Aquariam Research Institute

See open jobs at Monterey Bay Aquariam Research Institute.See open jobs similar to "Mechanical Engineer(s)" Schmidt Marine.The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) is a 200-person non-profit, oceanographic research institute funded yearly (~$50M) by the David and Lucille Packard Foundation. Founded by David Packard (Hewlett-Packard) in 1987, MBARI has been at the forefront of deep-ocean research, utilizing its location in Moss Landing, CA, at the head of the Monterey Bay submarine canyon, to develop expertise in underwater vehicles, sensor development, communication, and data analysis, in order to better understand our changing ocean. A unique aspect of MBARI, insisted upon by Mr. Packard, was that scientists, engineers, and operation staff work together as equals; this remains a distinguishing feature of working at MBARI. Another unusual feature is that MBARI is known for supporting high-risk, high-reward engineering development programs.
At this time MBARI is seeking to hire several Mechanical Engineers with experience spanning the range from design engineering to first-principles analysis-based contributions. These positions provide opportunities to contribute to a wide range of MBARI projects with EE and SE colleagues in order to engineer solutions that will enable ocean research. The ideal candidate is able to multi-task effectively across projects. These positions have a large degree of autonomy and opportunities for self-direction.
Engineers at MBARI have access to a wide range of cutting-edge technologies and state-of-the-art facilities, and can be involved in every aspect of ocean instrumentation development–from idea conception, design, manufacture, to deployment and support of novel systems. Among many advanced technologies developed at MBARI, the engineering team has designed and built a robotic microbiology laboratory, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), a wave-energy extraction system, a benthic seafloor explorer, and underwater laser and imaging systems. MBARI maintains a sophisticated manufacturing facility including a CNC enabled machine-shop, manual machines, water-jet cutter, welding facilities, electronics fabrication facilities, and heavy equipment. Most manufacturing is done on-site, but some items are sent to outside shops as needed.
If you have the interest and experience to contribute to our work, then we very much welcome your application. Because we are working to fill a range of positions, direct experience with all of the following areas of activity and experience are not required for application. We will consider applicants across a range of experience levels.
As a mechanical engineer, you will:
