*Salary commensurate with education and experience.

*Job Summary*

As a Structural Dynamic Engineer at BPMI, you will be responsible for evaluating dynamic, vibration, and shock loading effects and oversight of shock and vibration testing to ensure that structural acceptability and dynamic design requirements of Naval Nuclear Propulsion components are met. Technical evaluations performed within this role may require the application of engineering first principles, transient dynamic analysis, steady state vibration, modal analysis, signal processing, finite element methods, and programming skills. The role supports the development of structural, testing, and dynamic methods-based recommendations with opportunities to introduce new technologies and enhance Program capabilities relative to shock and vibration analysis.

*Essential Duties:*

 

 

  • Perform structural and shock/vibration evaluations and provide technical consultation and guidance on the analysis and design of power plant components to applicable design codes and standards.
  • Apply commercial and proprietary computational codes to determine structural response of components to shock and vibration events, including response of ship structures and equipment to underwater shock. Research and apply new tools and technologies for performing dynamic analyses.
  • Execute structural analysis utilizing skills such as: mechanical vibrations, structural dynamics, finite element analysis, thermal/mechanical analysis, fracture mechanics, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and related technologies.
  • Review and evaluate equipment specifications and vendor proposals for overall structural requirements.
  • Assess adequacy of component structural evaluations and testing performed by suppliers to demonstrate the component structural integrity through independent verification and/or technical reviews.
  • Represent BPMI at technical meetings with suppliers, other prime contractors, and the Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program representatives.
  • The essential duties identified are representative but are not intended to be an exhaustive or inclusive list of all the responsibilities of the position.
