Job Overview

The Manufacturing Engineer – Propulsion & Machinery Installation Planning defines the complex, high-precision installation steps and processes used to install, align, and commission main propulsion equipment, reduction gears, shafting, bearings, and associated drive train components aboard autonomous surface vessels. This role also plans installation of other critical ship's machinery systems, including anchor handling systems, ramp installation, and ramp lowering/actuation systems specific to LCU-type vessel programs. This role translates design intent and manufacturer requirements into sequenced, repeatable installation processes that production teams can execute precisely and safely.

Propulsion and machinery installation carries far less tolerance for error than general outfitting. A shaft line that is out of alignment, a foundation that is not set correctly, or a ramp and anchor system that is not installed and tested to specification, can cause vibration, equipment failure, or a mission-critical system failure once the vessel is underway or beaching. This role ensures installation sequence, alignment procedures, an
