About The Position

This requisition is for a Manager Engineering 2 position in the Reactor Plant Fluid Systems section of newly-created Department E50 (a merged department composed of the former E70 and E83). This position is currently planned to primarily support the Nimitz Class. However, the former PPPY and RPPY are now the unified Propulsion and Reactor Engineering Planning Yard (PREPY), supporting all nuclear powered aircraft carriers. As such this position's responsibilities may be expected to cross over into Ford Class eventually. This group provides engineering support to the fleet, NAVSEA, TYCOM, NNL/Bettis, BPMI, and the shipyards that support Nimitz and Ford Class carriers. Must HaveBachelor's Degree and 6 years of progressive technical experience in research, engineering and design; Master's Degree and 4 years of relevant experience.

Experience with the operation, design, testing, and troubleshooting of fluid systems - liquids, gases, and slurries. Knowledge of the design principles, operation, and maintenance of Nimitz Class carrier reactor plants. Ability and willingness to support emergent work to sustain the fleet in times of maintenance and in emergencies, to include being always reachable by telephone. Experience with ships in RCOH, PIAs, DPIAs, SRAs, WOOs, and at sea. Knowledge of Ford Class carrier reactor plants is desirable, and adequate knowledge may substitute for Nimitz Class experience. Knowledge of and experience with MIL-Standards, GRPORS, piping, fittings, heat exchangers, fluid flow, heat transfer, welding, pumps, valves, and other components, corrosion, FEA, laboratory testing, and shipboard and waterfront environments.
