Naval Architect, Lead
The Opportunity:

We are seeking a skilled Naval Architect to bring strong ship architecture and design competency for Navy clients. At the intersection of mission and technology, this role will help Navy acquisition organizations acquire or develop mission-suitable Navy vessels and systems. This role involves applying your naval architecture experience to performing and supporting related research and development (R&D), integration, and test and evaluation (T&E) activities in support of acquisition programs for Navy shipbuilding. You will help to architect, design, and evaluate the operation of naval vessels and develop ship concept designs, conduct concept design studies and analyses, and perform operational or performance evaluations. You'll design software to prepare plans, drawings, and analytical models. You'll evaluate designs for feasibility and analyze critical elements or performance of the design using analytic tools, model scale- and full-scale testing, or prototypes, as appropriate. You'll prepare reports and make recommendations for design changes. You'll identify and apply regulatory, industry, and Navy standards.

You bring a zest for understanding how marine vessels are designed, how the naval architecture discipline contributes to the overall realization of a ship, and how to find and proactively mitigate risks in ship designs. You have advanced skills and competencies in vessel design conceptualization, arrangements, hydrostatics, hydrodynamics, requirements development, and performance characterization. You have strong communication skills and can effectively communicate solutions verbally and through visual media. You'll work cross-functionally with a technical and acquisition team consisting of engineers of other disciplines and will lead naval architecture activities in support of program efforts. You'll grow the skills and capabilities of junior engineers and naval architects and promote a positive, inclusive culture.
