Position Overview
Join a specialised maritime engineering team supporting delivery of a critical project. Play a key role in developing and managing requirements for complex maritime platform engineering and work on high‐impact projects alongside experienced engineers across multiple disciplines.
Responsibilities
* Assess and advise on key electrical system technical risks, including suitability of system characteristics and associated performance and survivability implications.
* Support the review of technical deliverables from the project's Head Contractor.
* Review calculations applying electrical engineering principles, techniques, procedures and criteria for naval ship designs.
* Engage with combat system delivery participants to address provision of combat system electrical requirements and establish the associated interfaces.
* Mentor and share experience and lessons with project team members to advance electrical engineering skills and system knowledge within the project's technical team.
Qualifications
* Degree‐qualified electrical or marine systems engineer with strong knowledge and experience in marine electrical power generation and distribution systems.
* Strong communication skills, including the ability to engage with senior stakeholders and decision authorities, and explain complex positions and issues.
* A positive, solutions‐orientated attitude, with the ability to influence thinking and advocate for the project team's interests across multiple program stakeholders with divergent interests.
* Ability to mentor and share experience and lessons with project team members to build electrical engineering skills, capabilities and knowledge within the team.
* Knowledge and experience in maritime electrical systems, including design and specification of marine electrical systems, electrical propulsion systems and power management systems, and a clear understanding of the systems engineering process (from specification writing, requirements analysis and traceability through to system‐level design, interface definition and requirements management).
