Overview

The Electromagnetics group is seeking a rotational employee in the areas of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Control, and Underwater Electromagnetics (UEM). Successful candidates will support EMC, ESD, and UEM work for all electrical systems on all submarine platforms.

EMC responsibilities include analysis of electromagnetic coupling and potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) problems on submarine systems, electromagnetic compatibility testing, determination of EMC test requirements for system procurement specifications, and shipboard system testing/troubleshooting.

ESD responsibilities include development and implementation of ESD requirements via the company-wide ESD control program and discipline steering team (DST), technical evaluations for potentially damaged equipment, and deckplate support for ESD issues/concerns that arise.

UEM responsibilities include whole-ship analysis and modeling, research of sensor systems, and supporting development of systems and methods that reduce electromagnetic signature.

Skills

Required:

• Candidates must possess strong interpersonal, organizational and communication skills which are necessary to function successfully in existing teamed environments.
• The ability to multi-task and possession of skills that permit independent functioning without significant oversight is also desired.
