Job Description
Overview Join our innovative engineering team as a Mechanical Valve Engineer, where you will play a pivotal role in designing, developing, and optimizing valve systems for complex maritime and naval applications. This position offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge shipbuilding projects, leveraging your expertise in mechanical design, structural engineering, and naval architecture. You will collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure that valve systems meet rigorous standards and operational demands, driving forward advancements in maritime engineering and system reliability. Duties Develop and refine mechanical valve designs using CAD software such as SolidWorks and other CAD tools, ensuring compliance with industry standards like ASME codes. Perform structural analysis and finite element analysis (FEA) to validate valve integrity under various operational loads and environmental conditions. Create detailed project schedules to manage design phases, prototype development, testing, and production timelines effectively. Collaborate with project management teams to coordinate system design efforts within shipbuilding and maritime engineering projects. Conduct system integration assessments for naval operations, ensuring valve functionality aligns with overall ship systems and safety protocols. Lead technical reviews and provide guidance on structural engineering practices, mechanical knowledge application, and system design improvements. Support construction teams during fabrication and installation phases by providing technical expertise on mechanical valves and related components. Skills Proficiency in 3D CAD software such as SolidWorks and experience with CAD tools for detailed mechanical design. Strong background in developing structural designs for marine engineering applications, including naval architecture principles. Experience with MATLAB for simulation modeling, data analysis, and system performance evaluation. Knowledge of project scheduling techniques to ensure timely delivery of design milestones. Familiarity with FEA methods to analyze mechanical components under stress and load conditions. Understanding of maritime engineering standards, DoD (Department of Defense) requirements, and ASME codes & standards relevant to shipbuilding. Demonstrated ability to lead project teams, manage project engineering tasks, and coordinate multidisciplinary efforts effectively. Practical experience in shipbuilding or maritime engineering environments with a focus on system design and structural integrity. Electrical engineering knowledge is a plus for integrating electrical systems with mechanical valve components. Construction experience related to marine or naval projects enhances understanding of fabrication processes and field installation challenges. This role is ideal for passionate engineers eager to push the boundaries of marine technology through innovative valve solutions!
