Application deadline: 30th Nov 2021 We’re a small team, moving very fast.

🚀 What we’re building

Our vision is to create a new market of regenerative underwater transport systems in a healthy ocean.

The mission is to restore our ocean by decarbonising shipping. We build zero-emission unmanned autonomous cargo submarines capable of cleaning up the ocean, collecting ocean data while delivering cargo. Restoring our ocean is our personal mission and with the world's best team involved, we believe we can disrupt the traditional shipping industry through first principle engineering, innovative production techniques, and a scrappy start-up approach to problem-solving.

We’re trying to accomplish something that has never been done by humans before. You’ll be at the forefront of underwater transport systems & actively contributing to our planet directly through your work at Oceanways. Being involved in disruptive startups like Oceanways at this early stage is the most thrilling job in the world, and it also happens to be the clearest path to creating an impact on the planet.
