Typical duties and responsibilities include:

• SWBS Ownership: Assume total technical responsibility and quality control for the 300 and 400-level SWBS group, ensuring work adheres to 100% of the project requirements.
• PE Stamping & Certification: Review, verify, and stamp design packages, calculations, and specifications for classification societies (e.g., ABS, DNV) and flag state authorities as necessary.
• Requirements Management: Map end user requirements to holistic systems and engineering methodologies, ensuring no design criteria or regulatory standards are missed.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Coordinate directly with other SWBS leads to ensure proper integration of weight, stability, power, other ship services, and structural interfaces.
• Life-Cycle Support: Support and help to drive the design spiral, shipyard construction, commissioning, and in-service modifications/drydockings.
• Regulatory Compliance: Ensure designs meet project specifications, class requirements, and maritime regulatory standards (e.g., ABS, DNV, USCG).
• Review & Modification: Conduct design reviews, incorporate feedback, and implement modifications to accommodate changes in project scope.

Responsibilities:

• Design power generation, distribution, and conversion systems for both ship service and emergency loads.
• Develop electrical load analyses, short-circuit calculations, and arc-flash studies.
• Integrate hybrid/electric propulsion architectures, switchboards, and marine cabling networks.
• Integrate Regulatory and Class Society certification requirements such as Safe Return to Port (SRtP), Automated Centralized Control Unmanned (ACCU), Dynamic Positioning Systems (DPS-0 through DPS-3), etc.
• Develop drawings (with the assistance from CAD drafters) of associated systems.

Qualifications: PE in Electrical Engineering. Deep knowledge of marine classification standards for electrical systems (e.g., IEEE 45).

Salary Range: $116,000 - $165,000 - salary is based on years of experience.
