Position Title: Director, Undersea Acoustics

The Ocean Systems Group is the largest group in the company, and its Director of Undersea Acoustics will serve as the technical lead for advanced underwater acoustic sensing and sonar technology. The work blends hands-on signal processing algorithm development with ownership of an entire technology area. It also includes leadership of programs that begin as proposals and grow, in some cases, from a couple hundred thousand dollars into multi-million-dollar efforts. The US Navy is the primary customer, and the Director's relationships and credibility with that community directly shape the work that comes in.

The company has built its groups through winning proposals, and several of its newer business areas started with a single writer and a strong idea. The undersea acoustics team numbers about four today and may grow to roughly eight as the Director expands into new signal processing areas and new arenas. Directors here define their own path, with an increasing focus on business development over time. The role is hybrid, based in Chelmsford, Massachusetts, with relocation support available for the right person.

Salary Range: $175,000 - $215,000 / Year DOE

Director, Undersea Acoustics Responsibilities

Serve as technical lead for advanced underwater acoustic sensing and sonar technology within the Ocean Systems Group
Develop and document signal processing algorithms for undersea applications, determining which approaches will and will not perform in the underwater environment
Apply blind source separation and machine learning techniques to data acquisition and analysis across tactical acoustic data arrays
Guide the full technical stack, including DSP hardware, data acquisition systems, software architecture, and embedded computing
Lead and mentor a team of three to four engineers working on acoustic arrays and signal processing, delegating effectively and owning the undersea acoustics technology area
Write proposals in response to government solicitations, presenting technical approaches, company capabilities, resumes, and supporting data
Lead awarded programs through prototyping, fabrication, build, and test as they grow from initial funding into larger efforts
Use established US Navy customer relationships to develop new work across underwater communications, underwater signal processing, and acoustics
Expand the technology area by identifying new signal processing opportunities and growing the team as programs develop

Director, Undersea Acoustics Requirements

8 to 10 years of minimum experience in undersea acoustics and signal processing
Established US Navy relationships and customer connections
Experience developing underwater acoustic signal processing algorithms for sonar, transducers, and acoustic arrays
Experience with Navy sonar, anti-submarine warfare, or undersea acoustic systems, rather than consumer acoustics
Proven proposal writing experience for Navy and government solicitations, with strong writing skills
People management experience is preferred
Background as an electrical engineer specializing in signal processing, with software skills is preferred
Experience with blind source separation and machine learning is preferred
Experience with DSP hardware, data acquisition systems, software architecture, and embedded computing is preferred
Ability to work onsite in the local area approximately three days per week, with occasional travel to the Ocean Systems facility in Merrimack, NH

Benefits

Medical coverage with three plan options, with the employer covering approximately 60% of the cost
Dental and vision coverage
Three weeks of vacation and a holiday package
401(k) plan with an employer match
FSA plan with various reimbursement levels
Hybrid schedule, with approximately three days onsite and flexibility negotiable for the right person
Relocation assistance for the right candidate
Advancement opportunity to the Executive Director level, along with the ability to grow the team as programs expand

If you have deep undersea acoustics expertise, trusted Navy relationships, and the writing ability to win the next program, apply today and take ownership of a technology area built for you to shape.
