Overview
There's never been a better time to join the shipbuilding industry. As demand for cutting-edge naval technology grows, General Dynamics Electric Boat is at the forefront-designing, building, and maintaining the most advanced submarines in the world. Our work is mission-critical, supporting the U.S. Navy and strengthening national security.
About Department 495 - Hull Planning Yard Engineering
Planning Yard and Fleet Support Engineering (D495) is a multi-discipline organization responsible for supporting the current submarine fleet, which consists of delivered OHIO SSBN/SSGN, SEAWOLF, and VIRGINIA Class hulls. D495 provides operational availability and capability to the fleet through maintenance and enhancement activities. These activities include managing potential design changes to commissioned ships (i.e. Ship Alteration drawings), developing documentation for class/ship modernization, making recommendations for service life extension, and providing technical direction in support of emergent problems (i.e. Liaison Action Requests (LARs)).
Role Overview
D495 Thermal Management Systems provides engineering support for delivered submarines (OHIO, SEAWOLF and VIRGINIA class). This organization solves problems and develops modifications (e. g. design improvements, upgrades) for the active fleet. We are of critical importance to the readiness of the US Navy's submarine force which makes our work important and exciting.
This role offers opportunities to travel, and conduct hands-on support on board active submarines, including on-deck assistance during shipboard modifications. You will be offered challenging technical tasks in a variety of areas.
Specific technical areas include: compressible (gas) and incompressible thermal systems [e. g. fluid temperature systems, Chilled Water EAFW, air conditioning, Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC)] systems and some parts of mechanical systems (mechanisms and actuators). Duties include, but are not limited to: performing calculations, material and equipment selection, preparing technical reports, reviewing drawings, interfacing with the Navy and shipboard reviews.
Occasional travel may be required.
Physical requirements to perform job:
Occcasional deckplate support includes climbing ladders and engaging/setting up test equipment to gather data.
