Overview
C5I Integration & Test Engineers utilize their operational, maintenance, and subject matter expertise to support the design, development, and testing of Non-Propulsion Electronic Systems (NPES) for new-construction U.S. Navy nuclear submarines. Leveraging cutting-edge technology and advanced engineering practices, these roles provide critical expertise across the VIRGINIA and COLUMBIA submarine programs.
Opportunities within C5I Test and Engineering span the entire system lifecycle-from initial concept and design through development, hardware/software integration, system testing, and final delivery aboard the submarine. Beyond new construction, engineers also contribute to sustaining the operational fleet through the analysis and resolution of in-service issues, evaluation of obsolescence concerns, and execution of NPES modernization initiatives to maintain the Navy's technological edge.
