The primary responsibility of this position is to analyze and troubleshoot construction issues during deck fabrication and outfitting for both the VIRGINIA and COLUMBIA Class Submarines. As the Design Yard, this position will have the technical authority over all construction, on or related to submarines deck manufacturing, that occurs at Steel Fab. As a member of this department, engineers are required to provide technical resolutions for a wide variety of complex construction issues, which may require shop or shipboard investigation on units and decks under various stages of construction. Specific to this position, the candidate will be responsible for adjudicating construction and vendor technical issues with varying levels of urgency and severity. These construction issues will most commonly deal with structural deviations, requiring the candidate to have proficient knowledge and strong technical understanding of welding and NDT requirements/procedures, as well as basic structural analysis and concepts. The majority of work will be centered on troubleshooting mistakes during construction, fixing design deficiencies and evaluating material discrepancies, while attempting to avoid adversely affecting an aggressive construction schedule and ensuring technical and structural adequacy is maintained. The chosen engineer will routinely interface with Trades at Steel Fab, construction and machine shop foreman, and engineering to ensure development of timely resolutions that support construction. Interfacing with EB cognizant engineering, materials, planning, welding, shock and analysis departments will also be required on a regular basis, as numerous products will require review from other departments. Candidate must possess strong written and verbal skills, as well as be able to work and communicate in a highly professional manner with Program Office personnel, management, Supervisor of Shipbuilding (SoS) and the Government (NAVSEA). Time flexibility is required as the work load fluctuates based on construction schedule and can require occasional extended hours and/or weekend work. ### Responsibilities Problem Solving Critical Thinking - Review and Understand Calculations Perform Base to Intermediate Level Calculations Technical Writing Work Independently/Well Organize Qualifications Required: Bachelor of Science degree or higher in Naval Architecture, Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Marine Engineering 1-5 years of post-graduate engineering experience Preferred: Exposure to NX/Team Center Construction experience Military/Navy Experience Working knowledge of MRP, Electronic Desktop, Team Center and PCM is desirable Prior experience with ship-checks in Industrial Environment Experience with FEA Experience with Technical Publications regarding welding and inspection requirements Working as a mentor - Knowledge of Special Emphasis programs PI287219937 ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Sep 22, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 19, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 19, 2026 - Listed for: 27 days - Location: Florence, SC, US - Employment type: Full-time[Apply on General Dynamics’s careers site →](https://www.gd.com/careers/engineer-i-structural-florence-sc-us-2026-19900-eb-opportunity) ## More jobs at General Dynamics ### [Program Representative - Site](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/general-dynamics/jobs/c0b5a1b055177eb4c4c8/) Florence, SC, US ### [2027 Engineering Summer Internship: Waterfront Engineering - Fast Attack Submarines | General Dynamics](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/general-dynamics/jobs/f4da2532855803ec7640/) Groton, CT, US ### [2027 Environmental Engineering Summer Internship | General Dynamics](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/general-dynamics/jobs/ea56465253250c315935/) Groton, CT, US ### [2027 Spring Engineering CO-OP Trainee | General Dynamics](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/general-dynamics/jobs/1add48b2c1583c7acb53/) Groton, CT, US ### [2027 Summer Internship - Engineering | General Dynamics](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/general-dynamics/jobs/7e5f37703acbffe33e0e/) Bath, ME, US ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Structural Dynamics Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/trane-technologies/jobs/5511e21a2bad1de137ea/) Trane Technologies · La Crosse, Wisconsin, United States of America ### [Cook - General Dynamics IT - Falls Church](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/aramark/jobs/cc27da1035cf4ece17ff/) Aramark · Falls Church, VA, US ### [Principal Engineer Structural - Aircraft Dynamics](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/northrop-grumman/jobs/4d28a80960a24865392f/) Northrop Grumman · United States-California-Redondo Beach ### [CAE-Structural and Dynamics Engineer (GR 31)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/paccar/jobs/ce6a3b3c3257397ec996/) Paccar · Mount Vernon, WA, US ### [Senior Structural & Multibody Dynamics Simulation Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/caterpillar/jobs/b51074ca6a23186f65fd/) Caterpillar · Mossville, Illinois OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
