curious about working with engineers of innovation?

join our passionate team

Think you've got what it takes? We're looking for engineering students and boat enthusiasts who want to turn theory into reality. You'll work alongside passionate teammates, building everything from scratch and racing what you've created. Fair warning: it's addictive.

Join us

Most solar boat teams outsource over 80% of their components.
We don’t.

We build everything from scratch – and we love it. Our carbon fiber hull? Designed and manufactured in-house. Our battery system and motor controllers? Built by our own team. This hands-on approach gives our partners and team members incredible opportunities to develop real-world skills across every aspect of engineering.

come along for the ride!

What started as a bold idea – harnessing solar power for high-performance racing – has evolved into something much bigger. We're engineers, dreamers, and speed enthusiasts who believe that sustainability and performance aren't mutually exclusive. Along the way, we've discovered that the best innovations happen when passionate people work together.

We come from different disciplines and backgrounds, but we share the same drive: pushing the boundaries of what's possible with solar-powered racing. Whether you're troubleshooting electrical systems at 2 AM or fine-tuning aerodynamics on race day, you're part of a team that values both technical excellence and the thrill of competition.
