Voltic is reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the shipping industry by retrofitting diesel ships to be electric. Electric cargo ships have the potential to eliminate 2.2% of global CO2 production, while simultaneously cutting shipping costs by 50-75% depending on route. We are making a boat that is both greener and cheaper. We've closed our first customer, who will pay us to ship containers for them. In addition to YC, we've also received funding from the Department of Energy and support from professors in MIT's Ocean Engineering Department.

We are looking to hire people with expertise in ocean, mechanical, and electrical engineering. You would be one of the first hires at Voltic and have the opportunity to take on a diverse set of responsibilities. Your work could entail CAD, FEA, CFD, naval architecture, electrical engineering, control systems, battery systems and adjacent areas relevant to our work decarbonizing the shipping industry. We are especially looking for people with experience in Ocean Engineering, Naval Architecture, and/or adjacent marine expertise. We are flexible with respect to location. We are open to part-time or temporary arrangements, where there is potential for a switch to full-time in the future.

Our work covers naval architecture, ocean engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, solar installations, and battery systems. We routinely use software like Ansys and Fusion for CAD, CFD, FEAs.
