The Accuracy Control Engineer develops and maintains the dimensional control systems required to ensure large ship structures align properly throughout fabrication, assembly, and erection. This role establishes the measurement standards, control points, and engineering processes that allow ship blocks and modules to fit together reliably during construction.
Shipbuilding relies on the precise alignment of extremely large structural assemblies. The Accuracy Control Engineer ensures that dimensional tolerances are controlled from plate cutting through final block erection, enabling repeatable modular production while minimizing rework and fit-up issues.
