Project Manager/ Sr. Naval Architect coordinates activities of ship design related to new building, conversion or repair projects to ensure that the goals and objectives of the project are accomplished within the prescribed time frame and funding parameters. Apply intense and diversified knowledge of engineering principles and practices in broad areas of technical responsibilities. The Naval Architect and Marine Engineer will perform essential duties and responsibilities personally or through coordination with other managers, engineers, designers, and drafters. Responsibilities as a minimum include performing engineering to develop ship preliminary design, functional design, and integrating the work of structural, mechanical and electrical disciplines in compliance with ABS, DNV, Lloyds, BV and other applicable industry standards. Provide design and engineering services for commercial and government vessels ranging from Offshore Support Vessels to Towing Vessels, Barges, River Vessels, Ice class vessels and High-Speed Craft. Conduct analysis of ship scantlings, section modulus, and deck layouts and schematics. Propose new approaches to problems encountered and make recommendations for changes in methods, procedures, and designs. Perform necessary engineering calculations, including but not limited to stability, resistance, propulsion, sea keeping, power trade off analysis, EPLA, mooring calculations, electrical, equipment technical and costing analysis, RM&A and marine system design by using both computer software and hand calculations. Perform hull form design, optimization and structural analysis using finite element software. Obtain regulatory approvals, coordinate with clients and develop work schedules.
