CVN Engineering Technician; SkillBridge Intern

CVN Engineering Technician (Skill Bridge Intern)

This is an UNPAID internship through the DoD Skill Bridge Program for transitioning active-duty US military personnel. The intern will actively train on meaningful projects and work closely with a mentor and with senior company leadership. The intern will train as an Engineering Technician 3 within HII-Mission Technologies, reporting to a designated HII Supervisor, with the goal of learning the maintenance actions and duties required of our Engineering Technicians in support of the various Newport News Direct Support (NNS DS) customers such as test engineering and trades support within the E84 CVN 74/75 Work Control / Test Department at the Newport News Shipyard.

The intern will be assigned special projects as needed.

Desired End State (3 month target):
At the end of three months, the intern will be able to further develop skills needed to provide technical support to engineers on a variety of technical tasks. The intern will be able to gather, maintain, format, compile, and manipulate technical data, such as laboratory or material test results and engineering design changes. Produce engineering documentation, reports, drawings (flow charts, block diagrams, and schematics).

Perform detailed mathematical calculations using established formulas; preliminary analyses of data where guidelines are provided in such areas as trajectory adequacy, model dimensional consistency; and quantitative judgments concerning technical data. Use personal computer in performance of analyses and development of documentation/reports. May conduct tests and record data to assist with engineering evaluation or analysis. The intern will develop a good understanding of the E84 department in Newport News Shipyard (NNS) to include:
Solve engineering problems via Work Authorization Forms and Work Permits Coordinate with Tradesmen to rectify Reactor Plant deficiencies Test and Troubleshoot installed equipment Utilize the Joint Fleet Maintenance Manual and Tag-out User's Manual to ensure worker safety and the standard of quality is maintained

Mission Technologies will benefit from the military background of the Skill Bridge intern's marine engineering knowledge and experience specific to Naval Vessels and considers the Skill Bridge internship an overall positive experience. Assumptions/Restrictions Skill Bridge Intern must have a Secret Clearance. Skill Bridge Intern will be available during business hours of the contract supported for meetings and training.
