Anti-submarine warfare systems and sensors for allied navies
Ultra Maritime designs and manufactures ASW solutions across airborne, surface, and undersea platforms for defense customers. The engineering-heavy org (81 engineers against 35 manufacturing roles) combined with active projects spanning radar, sonobuoy, and underwater sensor development signals a company scaling design complexity faster than production volume—reinforced by their stated pain points around manufacturing process safety, quality non-conformance, and test equipment efficiency. Stack emphasizes embedded systems (C, C++, FPGA, LabVIEW) and design tooling (CAD, OrCAD, DOORS, UML) over cloud infrastructure, consistent with hardware-centric defense work.
Notable leadership hires: Team Lead, Production Team Lead
Ultra Maritime is a privately held defense contractor headquartered in Braintree, MA, with operations spanning the U.S., Canada, UK, and Australia. The company develops anti-submarine warfare technology and sensors for allied naval forces, with particular focus on radar systems, sonobuoy products, and next-generation undersea sensor platforms. Workforce of 1,001–5,000 spans engineering, manufacturing, operations, and support functions. Current hiring velocity is steady, with 157 active roles across four countries and a seniority mix skewed toward mid- and senior-level engineers and production staff.
