ERG is a research and consulting firm that provides a wide range of support to federal, state, and commercial clients. ERG offers multidisciplinary teams with nationally recognized skills in engineering, science, economics, public health, informational technology, and communications. We hire people with the best minds and then provide them with a vibrant and flexible environment in which to develop their careers. The qualified individual must be highly motivated with the skills to prioritize, perform, and communicate effectively in a fast-paced environment.
ERG is seeking a senior engineer with expertise in Department of Defense (DoD)/U.S. Navy energetics facility design and construction projects and programs. This role requires extensive knowledge of DoD Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC), Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Instructions, building codes, and other facility requirements relevant to renovation and construction of U.S. Navy energetics facilities. The successful candidate must have experience within a manufacturing environment and the wide range of facilities to support these operations, such as those supporting research and development, test and evaluation, energetics manufacturing and processing, fleet support, demilitarization, and disposal.
Candidates should have a strong understanding of the unique facility design considerations associated with energetics manufacturing and processing environments, including process equipment and utilities, hazardous material handling, process safety, ventilation, fire protection, electrical systems, facility layout, material flow, and separation and siting requirements.

The position will include interaction and support from ERG personnel in various locations, including Arlington, VA, and Indian Head, MD. Indian Head is approximately 30 miles from Washington, DC, 25 miles from Alexandria, VA, and 60 miles from Fredericksburg, VA.
