D494 Engineers are responsible for the detailed design and analysis of forward end internal submarine structures. Experience required in the detailed design of forward end internal submarine structures, i.e., equipment foundations, platform decks, modular structures, joinerwork, and stowage.  Experience using finite element analysis to perform static and dynamic shock analysis, submergence, fatigue, and evaluation of tank pressurization loads and loads due to ships motions is required.  Additionally, Engineers will interface with Designers, representatives from various disciplines, and the Navy in a Design/Build team environment.  Engineers will also participate in Navy design reviews.

Electric Boat offers Flexible Work Arrangements that allows some work to be performed remotely and at home. This varies from position to position based on the amount of classified material the department interacts with, as well as a few other variables. Please ask for more details on how it applies to this opening during discussions with the department.
