The position offers competitive compensation ($105,000-$175,000), equity, comprehensive benefits, and the unique opportunity to drive positive environmental change in the marine industry.

Arc's culture emphasizes transparency, learning, and adaptability. You'll collaborate with vehicle engineers and technicians, having significant input in shaping the future of watercraft technology.
