Company · Careers

A job where the office is sometimes the ocean.

We hire scientists, engineers, field crews, writers and partnership-builders — people who’d rather be cold and useful than warm and ornamental. Every role touches the water eventually.

How we work

Three habits we hire for.

Field-first

Everyone spends time on the water in their first year — engineers, data scientists, finance. You cannot build for a reef you have never been cold beside.

Science-grade honesty

We publish failures with the same formatting as successes. Bad news travels faster internally than good news, by design.

Community is infrastructure

Ranger partnerships, school programs and fisher agreements are load-bearing parts of the programs, not outreach garnish.

Open roles

6 positions open.

Full-time

Tidewright is a fictional company created as a design and content demonstration. These openings are illustrative of the kinds of roles an ocean-tech restoration company hires for — speculative applications go nowhere real.
