John Antaramian

Marine Engineering & Prototype Development Specialist

I am a hands-on marine engineer, mechanical designer, and builder with more than a decade of experience developing marine systems, propulsion concepts, and custom mechanical solutions.

Through my company, SubSurface Submersibles, I have designed and fabricated specialized marine equipment including propulsion systems, pressure vessels, experimental submersible platforms, and underwater mechanical assemblies. My work spans concept design, CAD development, prototyping, fabrication, and real-world testing in marine environments.

My technical background includes hydrodynamics, propulsion design, structural fabrication, composite construction, welding, machining, and integration of marine electronics such as sonar and subsurface sensing systems.

I work best in environments where ideas need to move quickly from concept to working hardware. Whether developing a new propulsion concept, solving a difficult mechanical problem, or building a functional prototype for testing, I focus on practical engineering solutions that perform reliably in demanding conditions.

I am currently available for remote consulting, prototype design, marine engineering projects, product development, and mechanical problem-solving for startups, research teams, and hardware companies.
