Overview

When CANES changed in the fleet, were you responsible for ensuring your Sailors were trained to the new standard? Did others rely on you to turn system updates into clear, practical instructions that worked on the deckplates? DLH is seeking a Technical Instructor / Course Developer to support CANES and C4I modernization efforts focused on updating and developing curriculum aligned to the latest fleet baseline.

This position is primarily focused on curriculum development. You will review system updates, configuration changes, and fleet requirements, then build and refine training products that accurately reflect current CANES capabilities. Your work will directly impact fleet readiness by ensuring Sailors are trained to the operational standard required across today’s Navy.

Classroom and hands-on instruction will be required, but the core mission is disciplined course development using Navy authoring tools and structured training processes. Success requires strong shipboard network expertise, attention to configuration detail, and the ability to translate real-world system administration experience into effective training.
