About The Position

Defines the requirements to design, develop, build, and maintain the tools, processes and data architecture of a Model Based Enterprise. Analyzes capabilities of existing and proposed systems, and develops technical, structural, and organizational specifications. Leads internal and external stakeholders through determining conditions and designing fully functional and secure digital solutions. Develops long-range objectives and strategic plans for digital engineering innovations, and effectively communicates documented data and results to necessary stakeholders. Generates and presents business case analyses to executive leadership to pursue digital enterprise opportunities. Enables digital transformation efforts by conducting research, driving new technical approaches and processes, as well as developing and managing testing of functionality. E92 Model Based Engineering (MBe) team, is seeking an experienced and highly motivated Model-Based Engineer to join our innovative team and support our efforts to revolutionize how we design, build, and sustain aircraft carriers and submarines. The primary responsibility of this team members will be to support projects in the MBe Innovation Cell (iCELL). The ideal candidate will leverage model-based systems engineering (MBSE) techniques to support the lifecycle management process to develop, test, implement innovative engineering & design solutions of complex shipbuilding projects. This individual will require a solid understanding of current engineering processes as well as an overall understanding of how ships are designed, planned, constructed, and maintained. This position includes a range of responsibilities including leading R&D-related projects, systems engineering, process & tool solution development (including TcU/NX, SAP, SIMCENTER, etc.), industry standards, project management, and support strategy development. This individual will be required to interface with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders at all levels of leadership.This person will be supporting the SSN(X) new Submarine design, and FORD Class Carrier and focus on the use of a model based environment to develop a comprehensive framework for digital twin value assessment and analysis processes. The focus areas are to define “what" and to “what level" digital twins should be considered for NNS programs followed by the “How” to manage digital twin maturity states. They should also have basic knowledge of and a willing to learn emerging technology enablers, including model based analysis and simulation concepts, requirements management, IoT, software driven systems, and sensor feedback for component operating and behavior characteristics necessary to validate physical to virtual relationships of a digital twin.

Requirements

9 Years with Bachelors in Science; 7 Years with Masters; 4 Years with PhD.
Newport News Shipbuilding requires a Bachelor’s Degree in engineering from an ABET accredited program.
