About Us
Saildrone is a defense company delivering maritime intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance products to military, homeland security, and commercial customers. Saildrone unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) are extreme-endurance platforms equipped with advanced sensors and proprietary AI to provide persistent insights above and below the sea surface. Insights that support border security, law enforcement, undersea infrastructure protection, hydrography, and naval power applications. With more than 2,000,000 nautical miles sailed and 50,000 days at sea, Saildrone USVs are trusted by governments across the planet and set the standard for cost-efficient maritime intelligence in the world's harshest environments.
We are based in Alameda, CA, with offices in Washington DC and St. Petersburg, FL, and operate missions worldwide. This is an exciting opportunity with a fast-growing team at the cutting-edge intersection of big data services, autonomy, and AI. You will be part of a high-performing, multidisciplinary team delivering data, intelligence, and firepower for strategic superiority.
The Role
You will develop and maintain the web applications that enable Saildrone operators to control our global fleet of autonomous drones, as well as the customer-facing platforms that deliver actionable maritime intelligence to users around the world. Furthermore, you will work on the internal tools that support the production and maintenance of our drones, helping teams operate efficiently at scale. We’re looking for a self-starter who thrives in fast-paced environments and is willing to dive deeper into the stack when needed. You should be comfortable taking ownership of complex features from concept to deployment without the close support of product managers or designers.
