Marine Autonomous Robotics Systems
Aber graduate Owain Jones says:
“Any Masters students or nearly-graduated third years fancy applying for a job at NOC (where I work)?
In Southampton, you’d be working in the “Marine Autonomous Robotics Systems” group (MARS), same as moi. For people who like Linux and C++ and ROS and fighting CMake and robot boats. Nice laid back place to work full of cool kit!
Closing date’s next Saturday (April 16th). I think they’re looking for internal candidates first but, hell, apply! I applied for the similarly-named “MARS Glider Engineer” position last year and got it.”
