(These could include testing, combat systems, electrical, outfitting, and aviation or others as needed.)

  Your role will include conducting daily oversight and surveys of conditions found at FMM Shipyard in Marinette, Wisconsin, receiving reports from each SME and developing both weekly and monthly reports to the lead Production Support Manager.

Our production engineering team conducts 3D model and 2D drawing reviews and our on-site team will provide oversight in the areas of fabrication of panels and modules, accuracy control of individual panels and modules and alignment. Our Navy customer relies heavily on each individual’s skillset to provide support to the program office team as well as Supship and the shipbuilder’s team, all sharing a common goal to successfully build, test and deliver multiple FFGs to the next generation of sailors.

  In this role, and utilizing your team of SMEs, you will:

  Conduct daily walk-throughs of the various shops fabricating deck panels, bulkheads and other structural components or sub-assemblies to validate general compliance with drawings and specification requirements, including alignment of scantlings IWO module connection points.

  Confirm standard accuracy control processes are being followed for jig and fixture installations, temporary blocking for modules or submodules.

  Confirm standard etching or markings are applied to provide necessary information for shipfitters and welders to position and orient structural members, including frame, buttock, waterlines, and molded lines and also verify weld types and sizes are provided.

  Participate in scheduled meetings with SUPSHIP, shipyard personnel and subcontractors, providing inputs when needed.

  Observe overall quality of fabrication and welding work and report any conditions found.

  Observe material handling, rigging and transport practices for safe methods and processes and report any issues/concerns.

  Develop and submit weekly reports of activities, including conditions found by the onsite production team and any anomalies or concerns observed during shipyard walk-throughs to the lead Production Support Manager.

  Develop and submit monthly reports of all completed activities to the lead production engineer.

  Provide support to the local Supship team as needed and also respond to emergent requests for information or data from PMS 515P (FFG Production Team, Washington Navy Yard).

  Qualifications

  A Bachelor’s degree in Naval Architecture, Marine or Mechanical Engineering; or substitute ten years of ship production support, including any U.S. Navy shipbuilding or repair oversight experience.
