Cover letter sampleDear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my strong interest in the Electrical Engineer position at MANTECH. With a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering and over five years of hands-on experience with shipboard electrical systems on vessels like T-EPF and T-AKE, I am well-prepared to support the Military Sealift Command's engineering and design efforts. My expertise includes developing electrical load analyses, fault current studies, protective device coordination, and collaborating on FMEA and PSTP documents for U.S. Coast Guard approval. I am particularly drawn to MANTECH's mission-driven culture and its long-standing support of the Department of Defense. I would welcome the opportunity to contribute to your team remotely and help ensure safe and reliable electrical plant operations.

Copy   Sample interview questionsCan you describe your experience with developing Electrical Plant Load Analyses (EPLA) for shipboard systems?In my previous role, I developed EPLA for various vessel classes by analyzing power generation and distribution systems under different operating conditions. I collected load data for motor, lighting, and communication circuits, calculated demand and diversity factors, and ensured compliance with military and regulatory standards. I also used software like SKM to model systems and validate results.

How would you approach a protective device coordination study for a shipboard electrical system?

First, I would gather system data including transformer ratings, cable sizes, and breaker settings. Then I would use SKM or similar software to model the system and plot time-current curves for each device. I would adjust relay settings to ensure selectivity while maintaining proper protection, and document the study for approval. I would also coordinate with stakeholders to address any operational constraints.

What experience do you have with Failure Modes and Effects Analyses (FMEA) and Periodic Safety Test Procedures (PSTP)?

I have participated in FMEAs for critical shipboard electrical systems, identifying failure modes and their operational impacts, and recommending mitigations. For PSTPs, I helped write and review test procedures for safety systems in accordance with U.S. Coast Guard requirements. This involved collaborating with engineers and ship crews to ensure procedures are practical and effective.

How do you manage working fully remote while still collaborating with teams and attending occasional sea trials or ship checks?

I maintain strong communication through daily virtual check-ins, collaborative tools like Teams and SharePoint, and provide regular progress updates. For sea trials and ship checks, I plan my schedule in advance, coordinate travel, and ensure I have all necessary materials ready. I find remote work effective when paired with clear expectations and proactive communication.

Describe a challenging electrical troubleshooting scenario you encountered on a vessel and how you resolved it.

On a T-AKE vessel, we faced intermittent ground faults in the lighting distribution system. I led a systematic troubleshooting process, isolating circuits and using megger testing to trace the fault. I identified a damaged cable in a junction box caused by vibration. I coordinated with the crew to replace the cable and performed follow-up testing to verify system integrity, preventing recurrence.
