We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.We are looking for you to join our team as a Principal Field Test Engineer (level 3) / Senior Principal Field Test Engineer(level 4) based out of Sunnyvale, CA.
In this role at Northrop Grumman, you will have a challenging and rewarding opportunity to be a part of our Enterprise-wide digital transformation. We continue to evolve how we deliver critical national defense products and capabilities for the warfighter. Our success is grounded in our ability to embrace change, move quickly and continuously drive innovation. The successful candidate will be collaborative, open, transparent, and team-oriented with a focus on team empowerment & shared responsibility, flexibility, continuous learning, and a culture of automation.
The Deployed Systems Program team is seeking an innovative, self-driven Principal Field Test Engineer (level 3) / Senior Principal Field Test Engineer(level 4) to join our dynamic, multifaceted field service and aftermarket support organization. As one of us, your mission will be to ensure that the devices we create turn steam into electricity and propulsion for our nation’s newest submarines and aircraft carriers meeting the stringent standards our nation’s fleet requires. Field test engineers travel to different shipyards around the world where Navy vessels have pulled in with problems and it is our job to do what we can to ensure the ship goes back out and is able to complete their mission. In between efforts the aftermarket organization is planning for future growth and capabilities. You will be a part of the team helping define what this new branch of the aftermarket organization will become!
What You’ll get to Do:
In this role, you will have the opportunity to complete a wide variety of challenges that span the gamut of effort required to accomplish system-level tests of our turbine-generators and gear-driven propulsion units—from integrating data-acquisition systems and programming automation routines to acquiring and analyzing data and writing procedures and reports. Along the way, you will learn all about the technologies that make our power-generation and propulsion systems unique, gaining valuable insight to ensure our tested products are assets our nation’s bravest service members can trust.
In this role there will be periods of time where individuals work an extended 12hr shift to support 24/7 system-level test campaigns and may include night shift support 30-50% of the time. The workload may span multiple weeks continuously in some cases. Although the workload may sound intense, we do offer flexibility in taking paid time off and compensate for all additional hours worked on shift during testing campaigns. If this type of work plays to your strengths and goals, then we’d like to hear from you!
