Provide subject matter expertise and technical advice in support of navigation and ship handling simulations, including scenario development, execution, and analysis.
Support client activities by translating real-world maritime operations into credible simulation inputs, behaviours, and constraints.
Perform duties as a qualified Bridge Watchkeeper, ensuring that simulation outputs reflect current operational best practices and regulatory compliance (e.g. International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGs), Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW). Apply advanced ship handling knowledge to validate and inform simulation scenarios across a range of operating conditions (open ocean, coastal, confined waters, port approaches).
Operate and provide expert guidance on Electronic Navigation Systems within simulation and real-world contexts, including:
- Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS)
- Radar / ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid)
- GPS (Global Positioning System) and integrated bridge systems
- AIS (Automatic Identification System) and voyage planning tools
Support the development and conduct of simulations, trials, and studies, including post-simulation analysis and reporting.
Contribute operational expertise to engineering studies, concept development, and capability assessments, particularly where navigation and maneuvering are key factors.
Provide insight into human factors and bridge team behaviors as they relate to simulated operations.
Train, mentor, and support team members in understanding practical navigation considerations within simulation environments.
Maintain professional and technical knowledge through ongoing certification, training, and awareness of evolving navigation technologies and simulation practices.
Conduct reviews and provide assurance that simulation outputs and navigation-related deliverables meet client expectations and operational realism.
Contribute to internal innovation and business development activities where simulation and operational navigation expertise is required.

Essential:

Minimum of 10 years practical experience in ship handling, maritime navigation and/or pilotage of large seagoing vessels (e.g., cruise ships, tankers, naval platforms).
Valid Bridge Watchkeeper Certificate of Competency (STCW compliant)
Extensive experience with Electronic Navigation Systems (ECDIS, Radar/ARPA, AIS, GPS, integrated bridge systems), including their representation and use in simulated environments
Ability to translate real-world operational practices into credible simulation inputs, constraints, and performance measures
Understanding of bridge team dynamics within simulated and real-world operations
Strong analytical skills for interpreting simulation results and providing actionable insights to clients
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, particularly in explaining complex operational behaviours within technical studies
Strong leadership, teamwork and stakeholder engagement skills across multidisciplinary project teams

Desirable:

Experience with bridge simulators (full mission or part-task trainers) or maritime modelling/simulation tools
Experience in complex ship towing operations
Familiarity with how vessel design characteristics influence maneuvering performance and simulation fidelity
Experience contributing to marine assurance, safety cases, or operational risk assessments
Eligible for Canadian or US security clearance (depending on the region of employment)
Travel to other BMT offices or client sites will be required (international and domestic)
