  • Performs electrical and electromechanical installation, maintenance, repair, and modification work on complex systems in tightly controlled production and refurbishment environments. Supports system grooms, functional checkouts, and configuration validation using approved technical documentation, calibrated equipment, and disciplined work practices. Work is performed where material compatibility, environmental limits, and process chemistry directly influence system integrity and long term reliability.
  • Candidates with backgrounds involving low voltage systems, controller or sensor integration, structured troubleshooting, or disciplined military/industrial operations often align well. All work must follow documented procedures; deviations require formal review. Some travel (up to 15%) and overtime may be required.

Oceaneering is a global provider of engineered services and products, primarily to the offshore energy industry. We develop products and services for use throughout the lifecycle of an offshore oilfield, from drilling to decommissioning. We operate the world''s premier fleet of work class ROVs. Additionally, we are a leader in offshore oilfield maintenance services, umbilicals, subsea hardware, and tooling. We also use applied technology expertise to serve the defense, material handling, aerospace, science, and renewable energy industries.

Equal Opportunity Employer:

All qualified candidates will receive consideration for all positions without regard to race, color, age, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran status, disability, genetic information, or other non-merit factor.

  • High School Diploma or GED; additional vocational, military, or applied engineering technology coursework in electronics, digital systems, instrumentation, or electromechanical systems preferred.
  • Military and/or civilian experience supporting marine, industrial, laboratory, or depot‑level electrical systems in controlled environments.
  • Experience with sonar systems, BAS controllers, sensor suites, or integrated processing equipment is strongly relevant.
  • Ability to learn and apply requirements related to controlled materials, process chemistry, sealants, potting compounds, coatings, and precision cleaning, with training provided.
  • Ability to obtain and maintain government base access.
  • Experience with fiber optics, low‑voltage electronics, or precision electrical work requiring specialized tooling and environmental discipline is preferred.
  • Comfort operating calibrated test sets, controlled‑environment workstations, and specialty fixturing.
