SAIC is seeking a Senior Industrial Engineer to provide direct onsite engineering and technical support to the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD) Shipboard Instrumentation and System Calibration (SISCAL) Program, Code 534. This role is integral to supporting the U.S. Navy's mission by conducting Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) analyses on shipboard instrumentation and control systems to optimize calibration workloads. The ideal candidate possesses strong technical expertise, analytical capability, and hands‑on engineering experience to support shipboard instrumentation, calibration systems, and related processes across the fleet.

Job Responsibilities:

• Perform Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) analyses on shipboard instrumentation and control systems to optimize calibration workload.

• Develop and maintain Calibration Requirements Lists (CRLs).

• Create and update calibration procedures for permanently installed instrumentation and shipboard machinery control systems.

• Review new machinery/system designs and modifications to assess calibration impacts.

• Analyze Hull, Mechanical, and Electrical (HM&E) system metrics where instrument calibration influences performance or maintenance outcomes.

• Conduct calibration interval analyses and adjust calibration periodicities for selected instrumentation.

• Review Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) and Alterations Equivalent to Repairs (AERs) for calibration-related considerations.

• Provide technical guidance for waivers, deviations, and departures from specification requirements.

• Identify new technologies and processes that reduce "time-to-cal" and lower equipment Total Ownership Cost (TOC).

• Respond to high-visibility technical issues requiring rapid assessment and engineering expertise.

• Support key Navy initiatives, including:

• Troubled Systems Process

• Maintenance Effectiveness Reviews

• Engineering for Reduced Maintenance

• Cumbersome Work Practices

• Capital Investment for Labor

• Establish technical specification requirements for SISCAL standards.

• Must be a U.S. Citizen.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills with proven ability to manage complex technical projects.
• Effective verbal and written communication skills; experience working in collaborative, cross-functional environments.
• Familiarity with naval systems, ship configurations, and test/calibration procedures.
• Relevant engineering experience within military, naval, or defense environments.
• Experience with ISO 9001:2015 or similar quality management systems.
