Senior Full Stack Software Engineer

The marine industry supports recreation, global commerce, and national defense. And yet it runs on technology that hasn't meaningfully changed in fifty years. Until now.

Arc is on a mission to electrify the marine industry. We're rethinking powertrains, software, and vessel designs from first principles. And we're already executing. We started with consumers to develop and harden our core technology. We're now scaling production of our flagship model with new models and sectors on the horizon. Now we're extending our platform to commercial applications, starting with tugs, ferries, and defense, with years worth of signed contracts and a pipeline that spans every vessel type on the water.

The technology is proven, the momentum is building, and the opportunity is enormous. The marine industry is going electric and Arc is building the platform that powers it.

We’re looking for someone excited by our vision, eager for a challenge, and willing to learn on the job. We pride ourselves on transparency and operate in a lean, high-trust environment that encourages everyone to take ownership over their domain.

This is a full-time role. As a hardware company, we prefer in-person work at our factory in Torrance, CA, but are open to exceptional remote candidates willing to regularly travel for work. You’ll report to the Director of Software and work closely with a lean, high-trust team where everyone’s work matters.

We move with urgency and build with care. We value these five things above all else:

• Ownership over both your work and the company's success
• Empathy for colleagues and for customers
