The Role
As the Engineering Manager - Mechanical within the Collins Submarine Program, you will be part of a specialised team responsible for supporting Australia's submarine capability.
This role requires technical experience covering submarine mechanical systems, including but not limited to:
* Submarine Mechanical Propulsion systems.
* Submarine Cooling systems.
* Submarine Ventilation systems.
* Submarine Compressed Air systems.
To succeed in this role, you must gain a technical SQEP delegation (PEdel) in the listed areas. Familiarity with Ships Information Management System (SIMS) and Collins Authorised Materiel Seaworthiness Delivery Organisation (AMSDO) practices is beneficial. Knowledge of the Collins class program, platform design and Life of Type Extension (LOTE) project is also advantageous.
* Professionally challenging: Submarines operate in harsh conditions - a space shuttle comparison is apt. You will deliver engineering and technical support to ensure safe operation of Australia's submarines.
* Professionally rewarding: Submarines contribute directly to Australia's ability to Shape, Deter and Respond in a dynamic geopolitical landscape. Your work as an Engineering Manager will directly impact Australia's submarine capability.
* Sustainment: Work addresses technical challenges ensuring Australia's submariners' safety and operational effectiveness. Collaborative teams address technical challenges, providing input from Operations, Project Management, Engineering, Technical, Manufacturing, Industry, Contracting, and the Supply Chain.
* Design and Upgrade: Work maintains the capability edge of our submarines through technology refreshes aligned to geo-political changes. This involves working with Navy Capability, Industry, system engineers, project management, and manufacturers.
