    Job Description

    Position Description

    Join Serco as a Systems Engineer supporting the Expeditionary Sea Base (ESB), Expeditionary Fast Transport (EPF), Submarine Tender (AS(X)), or similar non-combatant Class Ships, Research & Development (R&D) for Maritime Prepositioning Force (MPF), SEALIFT, and Naval Operational Logistics (OPLOG) Technologies. ESB ships are highly flexible platforms that support various military operations such as Airborne Mine Counter Measures (AMCM), Special Operations Force (SOF) operations, Crisis Response Sea-basing (e.g., Special Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force), Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) and Unmanned Aviation Systems (UAS) operations. Acting as a mobile sea base, they are part of the critical access infrastructure that supports the deployment of forces and supplies to provide prepositioned equipment and sustainment with flexible distribution.

    This position is contingent upon your ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Secret level clearance post-employment.

    The ESB ship class has a flight deck with four aviation operating spots capable of supporting MH-53E helicopters; accommodations; workspaces; and ordnance storage for embarked forces, enhanced command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence. These ships also feature a reconfigurable mission deck area to store equipment, including mine sleds and Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats. EPF ships are shallow draft, all aluminum, commercial-based catamaran capable of intra-theater personnel and cargo lift, providing combatant commanders high-speed sealift mobility with inherent cargo handling capability and agility to achieve positional advantage over operational distances. Bridging the gap between low-speed sealift and high-speed airlift, EPFs transport personnel, equipment, and supplies over operational distances with access to littoral offload points including austere, minor and degraded ports in support of the Global War on Terrorism/Theater Security Cooperation Program, Intra-theater Operational/Littoral Maneuver and Sustainment and Seabasing. EPFs enable the rapid projection, agile maneuver and sustainment of modular, tailored forces in response to a wide range of military and civilian contingencies such as Non-Combatant Evacuation Operations, Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief. AS(X) is the follow-on class of submarine tenders that will replace the two tenders currently in service. These auxiliary ships will support U.S nuclear-powered attack submarines (SSN), nuclear powered ballistic missiles submarines (SSBN) nuclear powered guided missile submarines (SSSGN) and submarine emergency response requirements. These ships support emergent nuclear and non-nuclear repair, resupply, reaming and other associated functions for submarines.

    You will be part of a team evaluating and managing the design, construction, testing, and delivery of new amphibious and expeditionary ships and sustaining existing fleet assets. Our team is led by a Program Manager having a decade of experience working in the DoD and Shipbuilding Industry. Our Naval Acquisition and Sustainment Operation, which is part of Serco's Maritime Engineering, Technology and Sustainment (METS) business, provides critical services to nearly all U.S. Navy surface ships and craft, supporting new construction, repair, maintenance, modernization, and sustainment.

    • Conduct independent system engineering analyses to identify and recommend resolutions to emergent issues. Analyze system functionality and requirements development. Perform interoperability assessments as required.
    • Support the PAPM at executive levels within the government and other contractor organizations, including major program reviews, inspections, conferences, and other program evaluations and major milestone events.
    • Interact frequently between the program office, supporting government offices, other contractors, and higher headquarters mid to upper-level staff.
