This opportunity resides with Global Security (GS) within HII Mission Technologies. Our group comprises live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) solutions, fleet sustainment, nuclear and environmental services, and Australia business operations. As a trusted partner to military customers, HII designs, develops, and operates the largest LVC enterprise that prepares warfighters for cross-domain battle. With advanced technologies to enable mission readiness, we understand that preparation requires full coordination—not readiness in piece-parts.
For more than 40 years, the U.S. Navy has entrusted HII to maintain and modernize the vast majority of its fleet. With a holistic approach to life-cycle maritime defense systems—from small watercraft to submarines, surface combatants, and aircraft carriers—HII ensures a high state of readiness. Additionally, we support the Department of Energy's national security mission through the management and operation of its sites, as well as the safe cleanup of legacy waste across the country, meeting clients' toughest nuclear and environmental challenges.
Our team of more than 7,000 professionals worldwide delivers all-domain expertise and advanced technologies in service of mission partners. Mission Technologies is leading the next evolution of national defense—the data evolution—by accelerating a breadth of national security solutions for government and commercial customers. Our capabilities range from C5ISR, AI and Big Data, cyber operations, and synthetic training environments to fleet sustainment, environmental remediation, and the largest family of unmanned underwater vehicles in every class.
HII Mission Technologies is seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Electrical Designer to support the development, integration, and documentation of electrical systems for complex defense and national security programs. In this role, you will collaborate with engineers, project managers, and cross-functional teams to produce high-quality design packages that meet technical, schedule, and quality requirements.
This position is ideal for candidates who thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy solving real-world engineering challenges that support mission-critical operations. You will work closely with project managers, engineers, and other designers to ensure that designs meet project requirements, preparing and presenting design concepts and ideas to project teams and clients. You will also stay up-to-date with industry trends and best practices in design.
Leadership at HII is a mindset, not a title. Through our Leadership Capability Framework, we define how every team member contributes to our mission and culture:
