Job Description

McLaughlin Research Corporation (MRC) is seeking an on-site, highly analytical Engineer to evaluate complex technical documentation, uncover actionable insights, and validate theories through software prototyping. We are open to hiring at the Entry, Mid, or Senior level, adjusting responsibilities and compensation based on experience. In this defense contractor role, you will apply your background in electrical, acoustic, or ocean engineering to support critical Navy programs at the Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) in Newport RI. Your primary focus is deep-dive technical analysis within a secure environment, with secondary responsibilities focused on translating those analytical theories into functional software models.

Core Responsibilities
  • Technical Document Analysis (Primary Focus): Evaluate, deconstruct, and interpret complex undersea warfare engineering documentation, specifications, and technical data packages on-site.
  • Theory Formulation: Apply principles of signal processing, acoustics, or wave propagation to identify patterns, anomalies, and system behaviors within technical data.
  • Software Prototyping (Secondary Focus): Develop algorithms and rapid prototypes in MATLAB, Python, or similar tools to test, model, and validate your analytical theories.
  • Technical Reporting: Translate highly complex technical findings into clear, structured, and actionable analytical reports for stakeholders.
  • Level Distinction: Senior-level candidates will additionally be expected to lead analytical tasks, mentor junior staff, and interface directly with Navy leadership.

Job Requirements

  • Education: Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering (focus on Signal Processing), Acoustics, Ocean Engineering, Physics, or a closely related technical field.
  • Eligible to obtain Secret Security Clearance
  • Technical Skills:
    • Strong foundational knowledge of signal processing concepts, acoustic wave theory, or marine sensor systems.
    • Proficiency in MATLAB or Python for data analysis, mathematical modeling, and prototyping.
    • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills for dissecting and reporting on technical data.
