Systems Engineer Team Manager
About The Position
SAIC is seeking a highly qualified Senior Systems Calibration Engineer Team Lead in Mayport, Florida, to provide onsite engineering, technical, and supervisory support to the Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD) Code 534. The role leads a team of technicians responsible for Shipboard Instrumentation System Calibration (SISCAL) services across Fleet platforms and provides advanced engineering analysis, configuration management support, calibration procedure development, and technical leadership for emerging calibration technologies. The position supports the accuracy, reliability, and readiness of Hull, Mechanical, and Electrical (HM&E) instrumentation systems on U.S. Navy surface ships and submarines. The team manager supervises five technicians conducting onboard calibration services, oversees technical execution and quality assurance, and coordinates customer and workload requirements. The role also supports shipboard calibration events, new construction and modernization programs, configuration reviews, and Fleet-wide calibration needs. Engineering work includes analyzing instrumentation configurations and design changes, validating calibration requirements against platform baselines and inventories, and developing and maintaining System Calibration Procedures. The position also advances calibration processes and leads technical and logistics activities for evaluating and deploying new calibration standards and technologies.

- Oversee calibration services performed through the Navy's Automated Work Request (AWR) process.
- Support Fleet-wide calibration requirements as tasked by NSWCPD Code 534.
- Provide technical guidance during shipboard calibration events and troubleshooting activities.
- Ensure calibration records and documentation are maintained in accordance with Navy standards.
- Assist with initial SISCAL visits for new construction ships.
- Conduct Installed Instrumentation Configuration Reviews (IICR) to verify instrumentation configurations and calibration requirements.
- Support calibration planning and configuration assessments for ship modernization and backfit alteration programs.
- Perform detailed SISCAL engineering analyses for new construction and altered surface ships and submarines.
- Evaluate instrumentation configurations, system modifications, and calibration impacts resulting from design changes.
- Assess engineering documentation, platform baselines, and instrument inventories to validate calibration requirements.
- Develop, maintain, and update System Calibration Procedures (SCPs) to align with as-configured platform baselines.
- Analyze shipboard system interfaces and calibration dependencies to enhance measurement system reliability.
- Drive continuous improvement initiatives related to calibration processes, procedures, and technical guidance.
- Validate instrument inventories and calibration requirements against current platform configurations.
- Identify opportunities to improve lifecycle supportability and Fleet readiness through enhanced calibration management practices.
- Provide technical and logistics leadership for evaluation, qualification, and deployment of new calibration standards.
- Assess measurement system performance, traceability requirements, calibration uncertainty, and operational suitability of emerging calibration technologies.
- Coordinate implementation strategies and logistics integration activities supporting Fleet metrology programs.
- Validate technical requirements and facilitate adoption of new calibration capabilities across supported platforms.
- Integrate new standards into established calibration processes to improve measurement accuracy and operational effectiveness.
