Technical knowledge of Sonar and associated naval systems, and of good engineering practices is essential, including familiarity with the regulatory environment for maritime products. The job-holder must also be technically competent in the tools and technologies used by the team (requirements management tools such as DOORS or Jama, CAD tools (with sufficient familiarity to enable review), PLM tools such as Windchill etc.), Strategic thinking to help deliver the Business' strategic plans for long term growth. Customer-facing, particularly to represent the customer within the business on projects such that the customer needs with regard to security, reliability and supportability are appropriately prioritized.
Innovative - we are looking for the generation and the fostering of ideas for both future products and efficient project/product delivery.
