Job description

Every successful engineering career needs a solid foundation, and as an Engineering Aide in the Seabees, that’s exactly what you’ll get. Learn from the best as you report directly to Construction Engineers who will help you develop a sharp understanding of what it takes to plan and carry out on-site projects. Do your job right, and you’ll build structures that will last for years to come and a career that will take you wherever you want to go.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Engineering Aides directly assist Construction Engineers in developing final construction plans. They are responsible for performing the pre-construction prep work from blueprint planning to land surveying that helps ensure the success of the project. As an Engineering Aide, your work responsibilities may include:

  • Conducting location surveys for roads, airfields, pipelines, ditches, buildings, drainage structures and waterfront construction
  • Preparing hydrographic, topographic and triangulation drawings and maps
  • Computing the volume of bulk materials (concrete, bituminous mixtures and earthwork) from drawings and specifications
  • Laying out all types of construction work
  • Operating and maintaining various types of precision surveying and laboratory test instruments and equipment
  • Preparing architectural, mechanical, electrical and civil drawings
  • Designing grading and drainage systems
  • Conducting concrete, soil and asphalt tests and quality control inspections
  • Reading and interpreting blueprints and preparing sketches for projects
  • Making estimates of material, labor and equipment requirements
  • Performing tasks required in combat and disaster preparedness or recovery operations

WORK ENVIRONMENT

  • As an Engineering Aide, you’ll construct and repair a variety of structures in just about every environment imaginable. You may work at Navy bases or ports of call around the globe, and you may be deployed to help develop or rebuild areas affected by natural disasters. Seabees primarily serve at shore-based commands—you will likely not spend time at sea.

QUALIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

  • U.S. citizen or equivalent
  • High school graduate or equivalent
  • 17 years of age or older

PAY AND BENEFITS

From the day you start, you’ll receive:

  • Competitive salary
  • Potential to earn a bonus upon enlistment
  • Free health insurance
  • Free housing
  • A retirement plan
  • Paid training

EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES

  • Navy College Program and Tuition Assistance
  • Post-9/11 GI Bill, up to 100% tuition
  • Professional credentials and certifications
  • College credit hours toward a bachelor’s or associate degree through the American Council on Education

PART-TIME OPPORTUNITIES

  • Serving part-time as a Navy Reserve Sailor, your duties will be carried out during your scheduled drilling and training periods. During monthly drilling, Engineering Aides in the Navy Reserve typically work at a location close to their homes.
  • For annual training, you may serve anywhere in the world, including locations in the U.S., at bases overseas, or in areas where humanitarian needs are great
