About the role

And yet it runs on technology that hasn't meaningfully changed in fifty years.
We're now scaling production of our flagship model with new models and sectors on the horizon.
You'll thrive here if you move fast, take ownership, and care about the details.

Reproducing complex issues on real vehicles and capturing ECU, network, and system-level logs to document findings
Collaborating with engineering and production teams to implement improvements to boat designs, production methods, and service processes
Contributing to technical problem solving, design reviews, and cross-functional debugging efforts with engineering teams
What we're building
The marine industry supports recreation, global commerce, and national defense.
We're rethinking powertrains, software, and vessel designs from first principles.
We started with consumers to develop and harden our core technology.
The technology is proven, the momentum is building, and the opportunity is enormous.
Working at the intersection of service and engineering, you'll lead technical triage, narrow root cause, and drive fast, high-quality decisions to route issues efficiently and keep vehicles moving.
You'll contribute across debugging, investigation, validation feedback, and broader service enablement while helping build a more scalable support model as Arc grows.
