About the OPPORTUNITY

We have an exciting opportunity as a CSI-IPT DDG Governance Manager to join our Maritime CS and System Integration Line of Business based at Osborne in Adelaide, South Australia.

This role is within the CSI-IPT (Combat System Integrator - Integrated Project Team) for the DDG (Hobart Class Destroyer) Combat System upgrade reporting to the DDG CSI Operations Engineering Manager.

The CSI-IPT will grow to around engineering focused members who work directly with the CoA MIWS (Maritime Integrated Warfare Systems) branch for design and delivery of all CS upgrade and sustainment work packages for the major surface combatants of the RAN, currently being the HCF (Hunter Class Frigate) and the DDG.

The first contracted scope is for the upgrade of the DDG Aegis Combat System to the latest Baseline 9 inclusive of integration of the Saab Australian Interface, with later planned scope to include the integration of Tomahawk cruise missile and NSM strike missile capability, enhanced Communications and Electronic Warfare systems.

This role will see you responsible for providing support in establishing the governance framework which underpins the delivery of the integrated Combat System design certificate for the Hobart Class DDG upgrade.

This entails undertaking activities to identify and develop processes, procedures and infrastructure required to support the execution of the DDG CSI-IPT engineering activities.
