About Sound Maritime Solutions

Sound Maritime Solutions was founded on a deep understanding of what it takes to make technology survive—and thrive—at sea. With two decades of experience in autonomous maritime systems, the company brings together expertise in USVs, oceanography, low-power embedded computers, underwater acoustics, and field-proven sensor platforms designed for the harshest ocean environments.

The founder’s background includes 15 years at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, where they led the design and deployment of deep-water autonomous recorders, and a leadership role at Ocean Power Technologies, where they helped scale USV operations globally. These experiences shaped the company’s mission-ready approach to engineering and operations.

Today, Sound Maritime Solutions helps USV startups and maritime innovators bridge the gap between prototype and product. From auditing C2 systems and refining acoustic integrations to developing training programs aligned with AUVSI Trusted Operator Program standards, the company ensures systems are not just functional—but resilient, scalable, and field-ready.
