Overseas Field Engineer (Junior)

Position Description

Position Title: Overseas Field Engineer (Junior)

Job Location: Primarily Overseas (up to 75% OCONUS); CONUS periods in Baltimore, MD

Job Type: Full-Time, Hourly, Exempt

Salary Range: $85,700.00 - $117,100.00

Position Description

As a Junior Field Engineer, you will support the readiness, integration, and technical performance of GARC systems and associated platforms operating in fleet environments. This role involves hands-on engineering support, system troubleshooting, configuration validation, technical documentation, and field operations during sustained overseas deployments lasting 90–120 days, followed by approximately 30 days in CONUS before the next deployment cycle.

You will operate in industrial, austere, maritime, and on-water environments—often OCONUS—supporting technical operations, system integration, RDTE (Research, Development, Test, & Evaluation) events, and fleet exercises. OCONUS assignments may include remote or hazardous overseas locations requiring signed consent to deploy.

While not typically customer-facing, you may occasionally work directly with fleet stakeholders, operators, or supporting organizations during deployments, testing events, or training evolutions.

Responsibilities include (but are not limited to):

• Field Engineering Support: Provide engineering support for GARC systems to sustain fleet readiness, availability, and mission performance.

• Integration & Testing: Support system integration, validation, and technical evaluations during harbor, shoreline, and on-water operations.

• Troubleshooting & Diagnostics: Assist in identifying system anomalies, isolating root causes, and supporting corrective actions under engineering supervision.

• Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs): Implement and verify approved ECPs, upgrades, and configuration changes while maintaining configuration control.

• Operational Deployment: Deploy globally (up to 75%) to support fleet operations, exercises, technical assistance engagements, and fielding events.

• Documentation & Reporting: Document technical observations, system behavior, and test results, coordinating findings with engineering, logistics, and operations teams.

• Launch & Recovery Support: Assist with on-water launch, recovery, and mission-execution operations in dynamic maritime conditions.

• Configuration & Asset Tracking: Maintain accurate records of system configurations, updates, components, and field modifications.
