Overview:

Needs technical background

Liaise between engineering and senior stakeholders.

Influencing role

Needs strong Problem Solving skills, root cause analysis, Identify future bottle necks, this role will not fix the problems but create a team in the engineering space to go fix the problems.

Essential Criteria: People management experience (no direct reports in this role), strong communication skills, capable of conducting engineering analysis, identifying future bottle neck / problem solving.

Desirable: Worked for BAE or ship building, degree or chartered engineer. Life Cycle or project management experience beneficial but not essential.

Software used in the team Jira, Confluence and Tableau.

Industry: Ideally Defence or oil & GasRole:

The Principle Engineer - Design Zone Integration reports directly to the Engineering Manager - Design Zone Integration. This role will define the strategy and execute the workscope required to ensure successful delivery of the stage 1 and stage 2 engineering Zx programme

Provide specialist engineering expertise to organise and co-ordinate significant aspects of engineering activity within the CSC Programme to ensure defined objectives of the Design Zone Integration process are achieved whilst continually maintaining quality and cost.

Interface closely with delivery domains to identify and resolve cross domain technical issues affecting progress through the zonal reviews. The role will be a key cross-domain engineering point of contact for specified design zones.

Support the delivery of detail design engineering enablers.

Liaise with the BAE IPT leads and central detail design teams to ensure design assurance is met and maintained for the ZX process.

Lead a cultural change agenda through driving new ways of working which empowers decision making and recognises expertise and defer authority to those best suited to make the decision.

Core Duties:

Work with the multi-disciplinary stage 1 and stage 2 engineering resource for domain including the delivery of engineering work and services using an Integrated Project Team structure comprising of members of several disciplines with multiple interfaces with programme leadership, customers and suppliers

Practice the maintenance and modification engineering processes and procedures in the engineering zonal integration strategy in response to technical developments and operational need.

Carry out complex technical analyses and investigations, including evaluation and selection of technical options, and prepare reports with suggested recommendations to support the resolution of problems and the improvement of engineering capability.

Support the development of designs in line with specifications and all quality and technical standards, and carry out design appraisals in assigned zones to ensure all standards are maintained.

Lead investigations into operational problems or developments and develop and prepare solutions, individually or as a member of a cross-domain team.

Embody and deliver Lessons learned from the T26 Zonal Engineering Maturity process.

Work closely with the Engineering Change Manager thus an integrated view is maintained to ensure configuration control of the ZX process (including stage 1 and stage 2 BOM and design artefact alignment).

Build strong relationships with key stakeholders to successfully discharge the role.Deliverables:

Keep up to date in relevant technical areas, develop skills and capabilities to be able to provide more effective services (seeking and sharing good practice and knowledge to continuously improve practices), and supply technical support and expertise to others as required.

Provide help and direction to less experienced team members to support both effective working and personal development.

Lead, develop and motivate the engineering teams to ensure they are aware of and capable of delivering their accountabilities.

Make engineering decisions within own sphere of responsibility and delegated authority.

Except in extraordinary circumstances, execution of the work will be achieved without continual supervision: instead a definition of the task outputs, budget (where relevant) and time-scale constraints will be agreed at the outset.Key Skills:

Proven track record of leading detail design and or engineering teams

Application and delivery of engineering work packages in line with NS engineering functional governance.

Experienced in Engineering framework, ELC and LCM in line with Naval Ships frameworks.

Strong collaborating and influencing skills to build positive, effective and trusted relationships.

Ability to drive the performance and delivery of an engineering projec

Strategic mind-set, with strong influencing skills

An accomplished communicator.

Risk management of technically complex issues
