Greensea, creator of OPENSEA®, the open architecture robotics platform for the marine industry, has hired Karnveer Gill, Junior Robotics Engineer, to help advance OPENSEA’s software tools and applications.

Karnveer received his electrical engineering Bachelor of Science degree from San Francisco State University where he worked as a mechatronics teaching assistant as well as a research assistant in the Control for Automation and Rehabilitation Robotics Lab.

Karnveer cited Greensea’s drive to advance technology as his reason for joining the organization, “There is a constant pursuit of new technologies. We have awesome skills and assets, and we pair that with other people’s technologies. One of my favorite examples is the RNAV2 navigation and control system. You take Greensea’s RNAV2 system, add it to the STIDD Diver Propulsion Device (DPD), and it becomes an underwater smart car for special operation forces (SOF).” 

VP of Engineering, James Truman, is already impressed with Karnveer’s work, explaining, “Karnveer has excellent skills. His first project was to develop a compass calibration application. He did a nice job on the algorithm and the application quickly became a part of the OPENSEA system.” Karnveer pointed out, “I love data analysis, so it was fun to get the logs, process them, and figure out what’s useful. And I really like doing algorithm design.  It wasn’t a hard algorithm, but I was able to learn some new tools while writing the code.” 

One of the first things Karnveer noticed about Greensea was its culture. “Everyone on the team is really passionate. They really care about doing a good job, and that stands out for Greensea.”  He went on to explain, “The social dynamic here allows you to ask questions and be comfortable. Everyone is very genuine. They’re honest and upfront.” 

In addition to this recent hire, Greensea continues to expand its workforce. Interested parties can monitor job openings here.
