Born and raised in Hawaii, Mike Buelsing first joined the Pacific Marine family of companies in 2010 as a mechanical engineer at PacMar Technologies. His early PacMar responsibilities included engineering design, analysis, fabrication, and testing – the core elements of nearly every PacMar project lifecycle. After pursuing graduate studies at MIT, Mike returned to PacMar’s parent company, Pacific Marine & Supply Co., where he led the planning, construction, and relocation of PacMar and Pacific Shipyards’ waterfront operations to their current location at Honolulu Harbor’s Pier 24. Beginning with an undeveloped parcel, the site has been transformed into a safe, efficient, and productive ship repair and applied engineering complex. Mike received his MBA from the MIT Sloan School of Management, and M.S. Mechanical Engineering from the MIT School of Engineering. Additionally, he holds a 100 GRT Captain’s License.

​“It’s been a privilege to work alongside so many incredible individuals at PacMar Technologies, and across the Pacific Marine family of companies over the past 15 years,” said Mike. “I’m excited for this next chapter and committed to building on the company’s incredible legacy of excellence, creativity, and innovation.”
