Summary
Alan Mccleary is a research scientist with over two decades of engineering experience focused on maritime and subsea systems, currently advancing broadband subsea connectivity and high-power electrical distribution at Teledyne Marine. He combines a strong foundation in ocean engineering and underwater acoustics from Florida Atlantic University with hands-on expertise in R&D, mechanical design, testing, and data analysis. His career spans defense and commercial optics and communications—from electro-acoustic transducer design at the Naval Research Laboratory to optical sub-assembly development at VIAVI and fiber telecom systems at Harris. Known for bridging acoustics and fiber-optic technologies, he delivers practical solutions for challenging underwater environments. Based in Daytona Beach, he brings both lab-proven research skills and field-oriented engineering judgment to complex subsea projects. A detail-oriented problem solver, he often leverages cross-disciplinary methods (acoustics, vibration, and fiber optics) to drive robust system performance.
