The Principal Engineer (C) – Mechanical Engineering (Platform Systems) shall provide support to the Engineering Manager and/or external specialists during development and analysis of mechanical systems. The Principal Engineer shall act as team lead, managing the day-to-day activities of the team and the production of deliverables. The Principal Engineer shall be responsible for developing and maintaining the competency and skills of the team, project plan and schedule project activities, while managing the resolution of any related issues.
Platform Physical Design and Installation Services provides a key role in physically integrating Integrated Combat Systems Equipment onto our Fleet. As a Principal Engineer Mechanical, you will be expected to provide SQEP Engineering Support ensuring our designs function as intended, are safe and fit for purpose.
Typical Duties Include:
Review of Integrated combat designs and their platform interfaces providing SQEP feedback in terms of Mechanical design (Structural, Thermal & Hydraulic) in the Naval/Marine domain. Examples of tasking will include reviewing and providing guidance against: Interface and Installation Guidance Information. Design Information to support Preliminary Design Reviews, Critical Design Reviews, and Final Design Reviews packs. Foran/CADS5 model to support part approvals, suppliers manufacturers data packs, etc. Production of CS Mechanical design interface information, e.g. Interface and Installation Guidance Information. Taking ownership of specific Mechanical design issues and managing Integrated Combat System, Platform (In build & in service) stakeholders and external partners in providing and implementing design solutions. Producing Engineering Drawings in FORAN/CADS5/Viso to BS 8888. Performing Engineering calculations (Structural, Thermal & Hydraulic) to support design-proving activities, as required. Develop design solutions to agreed time, cost and quality in accordance with project or business milestones. Develop and manage requirements and acceptance criteria specific to a system or product and/or across a system of systems, platform or programme. Understand the contractual and performance requirements for various systems, and support the definition and associated acceptance criteria and events through design, build, integration, installation and commissioning activities. Produce documentation required to support the design review process, including diagrams, technical specifications, supporting calculations, design evidence and justifications. Ensure design proving evidence is comprehensive, captured within the requirements management tools and has been endorsed by the appropriate level of authority. Ensure compliance against contractual requirements and that work is undertaken in accordance with company, safety, environmental, contractual and local business processes, standards, procedures and documentation. Undertake design reviews and presentations to customers. Provide technical support to integrated performance and acceptance activities, including acceptance of equipment from suppliers through to system acceptance by the customer. Review relevant supplier documentation and ensure it is captured and recorded appropriately. Support the development of estimates for the scope of work and resources required to deliver it in order to support bids, proposal development and project planning activities for various systems. Provide support to the Certificate of Design activities appropriate to the discipline and articulate and present complex technical arguments clearly, logically and simply. Deliver technical input and engineering solutions in support of build activities, defect resolution and change management. Contribute, as appropriate to the responsibility ascribed by role/grade, to: Requirements and acceptance criteria. Technical reports and specifications. System definition documentation, including design descriptions, diagrams/P&ID, interface descriptions, etc. System design verification: calculations, modelling, analysis etc. System safety documentation. Design reviews and technical presentations. Test and validation plans. Qualification and acceptance plans. Maintain functional design intent through build and integration to commissioning and acceptance. Knowledge of Standards Desirable:
Def Stan 08-107 General Requirements for the design of Electro technical and Naval Weapon Equipment. Environmental Qualification Standards Def Stan 08 – 123 & Def Stan 00-35. Submarine Materials Toxicity standard/database BR1326A (or surface ship equivalent). In-depth knowledge and experience specifying mechanical equipment and components (heat exchangers, pumps, diesel generators, hydraulic plant, compressors, etc). Skills:
Technical report writing skills. Demonstrable experience in the delivery of mechanical systems through the development lifecycle. Comprehensive experience of applying technical expertise across the full engineering lifecycle. Qualification Requirements:
BEng (Hons) / MEng or equivalent in a relevant STEM degree. CEng or capable of achieving CEng.
