What is a junior marine?

Junior Marines are enlisted personnel in the early stages of their career within the United States Marine Corps, typically holding the ranks of Private (E-1), Private First Class (E-2), or Lance Corporal (E-3). Their primary role is to learn the foundational skills of a Marine, follow orders, and support their unit in a variety of duties. Junior Marines undergo continuous training and development, both physically and mentally, to prepare for greater responsibilities as they advance in rank. They are supervised by more senior enlisted Marines and are expected to uphold the core values of honor, courage, and commitment.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a junior marine?

To thrive as a Junior Marine, you need physical fitness, discipline, basic combat knowledge, and a high school diploma or equivalent.

Teamwork, resilience, and effective communication are standout soft skills for this role. These attributes ensure mission readiness, personal and team safety, and effective performance in demanding military environments.

The Junior Salvage Naval Architects will travel offsite from their home office for extended durations, with a maximum single deployment of approximately 12 weeks at any given time. Our Junior Salvage Naval Architects travel the world supporting operations to save and salvage ships and marine vessels, conduct vessel wreck removal operations and emergency repairs, as such this is not primarily an office setting position.

  • Develop 3D hull models for use in stability software for damage stability, salvage and wreck removal operations.
  • Use stability software and hydrostatics information to develop ground reactions, ballast/cargo discharge requirement and estimate freeing force requirements.
  • Support various emergency response, salvage and wreck removal jobs by developing the engineering plans, arrangements and drawings to the satisfaction of the client and appropriate authorities. This includes both onsite and remote support for the salvage team.
  • Develop written technical plans to be submitted to the client and appropriate authorities for various emergency response, salvage and wreck removal operations.
  • Work with classification societies and flag state's regarding maintenance and modifications to Resolve Marine's own floating assets.
  • Develop drawings and/or plans for modifications to Resolve Marine's own floating assets.
  • Perform structural calculations using first principle and advanced analysis. Experience or willingness to learn FEA structural analysis is strongly desired.
  • Develop CAD drawings and designs for vessel modifications, vessel repairs, outfitting and site plans.
  • Develop and engineer heavy lift and rigging arrangements.
  • Support engineering projects that are associated with Resolve Marine's other business units.
  • Work both independently and as part of a team, providing technical support on-site or remotely.
  • All other duties as assigned. Please see the following organizational charts which outline the hierarchy in Resolve for the review of technical output and the delegation of work.
