TMMG is seeking a senior‑level Engineering Design Team (EDT) Lead Design Engineer to run day‑to‑day operations of the EDT and ensure consistent, high‑quality engineering execution across multiple concurrent projects supporting Military Sealift Command (MSC), U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and commercial maritime operators. The EDT delivers multi‑discipline engineering design and technical solutions across shipboard systems design, diagnostics and solutions, shipboard operations and troubleshooting, and shipyard installation and commissioning support.
The Lead Design Engineer will bring a minimum of 10 years of engineering management experience with demonstrated success leading engineering teams in commercial ship operations/design, shipboard maintenance environments, and commercial ship repair/modernization. Candidates must possess at least a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Structural, Marine, or Systems Engineering (or a closely related discipline).
This position reports to the Engineering Design Team Program Manager and leads a team of Senior, Mid‑level, and Junior Engineers across multiple disciplines and AutoCAD Technicians/Designers. Work is performed under an approved ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System, with a focus on delivering high‑quality products on schedule and budget while maintaining high first‑time acceptance rates.
