General Dynamics Bath Iron Works (BIW) is engaged in building ships for the U.S. Navy, including the DDG 51 Arleigh Burke and DDG 1000 Zumwalt classes. They are currently working with the Navy to design a new battleship.

The Engineering Department at BIW supports production through various phases of shipbuilding, including testing during sea trials. Engineers have the opportunity to join the Engineering or Production Development Programs, which are two-year initiatives that allow participants to rotate through different roles in the shipyard.
