About The Position
SAIC is seeking a mechanical engineer to serve as an In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) in support of hypersonic weapons systems deployed aboard the Zumwalt-class DDG-1000 destroyer and Virginia-class submarines. This position plays a critical role in ensuring operational readiness, technical integrity, and lifecycle sustainment of cutting-edge hypersonic strike capabilities. As an ISEA, you will serve as a key technical authority bridging the gap between the engineering baseline and fleet operations. You will work collaboratively with Fleet Support Representatives, government program offices, and cross-functional engineering teams to ensure delivered systems align with system and subsystem requirements throughout their operational lifecycle. This position is 100% remote/work from home.
Requirements
- Serve as a primary In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) for hypersonic weapons systems, providing mechanical engineering expertise across the full sustainment lifecycle
- Review, develop, and maintain technical manuals to ensure accuracy, completeness, and alignment with current system configurations
- Develop and process Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs), ensuring proposed changes are technically sound, properly documented, and traceable to system/subsystem requirements
- Perform configuration management activities, maintaining the integrity of the engineering baseline and ensuring delivered hardware and software configurations are accurately tracked and documented
- Author and update redline drawings, incorporating approved engineering changes and ensuring as-built configurations are accurately reflected
- Develop and review Independent Logistics Assessment (ILA) documents to support fleet readiness and sustainment planning
- Write clear and concise risk statements, identifying technical risks and recommending mitigation strategies to program leadership and government customers
- Participate in and support Change Control Boards (CCBs), presenting engineering changes, responding to technical inquiries, and ensuring proper disposition of action items
- Collaborate closely with Fleet Support Representatives to address fleet-identified issues, document discrepancies, and drive timely engineering resolutions
- Ensure alignment between delivered systems and applicable system/subsystem specifications, identifying and resolving gaps or non-conformances
- Support technical reviews, audits, and program milestones as required by the government customer
- Coordinate with multi-disciplinary engineering teams, logistics personnel, and government stakeholders to support overall program objectives
