Miguel Ortiz is the Sensor Chief on the seaQuest circa 2018 CE.

As the Sensor Chief, Ortiz is responsible for monitoring the sensor systems on the seaQuest. He is depicted as a competent and dedicated member of the crew. During the episode, he diligently carries out his duties, providing crucial information about the movements of other vessels. He works closely with other members of the bridge crew, such as Ford. His expertise in sensor technology is vital to the ship’s operations. When the seaQuest comes under attack, his role in analyzing sensor data becomes even more critical.

In "To Be Or Not To Be," Ortiz is shown to be loyal to the crew and to the mission of the seaQuest. He is clearly dedicated to his duties as a sensor chief. When Nathan Bridger assumes command of the ship, Ortiz accepts his authority and follows his orders. He expresses concern and acts decisively when the ship is under attack. He monitors the sensor data regarding the renegade sub and the Gedrick Power Station. He also monitors the movements of the Typhoon and reports its heading, showing an understanding of the vessel's capabilities.

Throughout the episode, Ortiz demonstrates a calm and professional demeanor, even during the most intense moments. He remains focused on his tasks and provides critical information to the bridge crew. When the renegade sub attacks, he is directly responsible for tracking the ship and providing the data to the bridge. He also works to identify where the renegade sub is headed by monitoring sensor data, and he reports the heading. His ability to stay calm and collected under pressure is vital to the success of the ship’s mission. During the final battle, Ortiz is integral to tracking the incoming torpedo and communicating that information to the bridge .

In the later part of the episode, Ortiz is also responsible for monitoring the status of the damaged Gedrick Power Station and the approach of the renegade sub. He conveys the approach of the Typhoon to Ford. He reports that the Typhoon is moving away from the station after the initial attack. He provides additional sensor information to the bridge, including the fact that the Typhoon is approaching the SeaQuest, that it is targeting the SeaQuest, and that it is firing a torpedo.
