    Job description

    Fathom5 is a security-first industrial technology company creating Brilliant Machines™.

    We are planning the relaunch of a former Navy ship at the Philadelphia Naval Inactive Ships facility and are looking for a dependable, resourceful, and mission-driven Site Support Associate to keep the ship, the team, and the daily schedule running smoothly so engineers and contractors can remain focused on their work.

    This is a Philadelphia-based, on-site position supporting the team at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. The Site Support Associate will provide hands-on logistical, administrative, and site support throughout the seven-week assignment.

    Core Responsibilities

      Site Access and Daily Operations

      • Open the shipyard gates at 6:50 AM, escort contractors on and off the ship, and lock up the ship at 7:00 PM.

      • Boot the NSYTE server and Starlink panel before work begins.

      • Lock and unlock the pier gate for visitors as needed.

      • Support the morning administrative meeting and evening wrap-up brief.

      • Ship and Team Support

        • Bag and label loose hardware by space.

        • Shop-vac ship compartments and help keep the ship clean and presentable.

        • Pick up lunch, run errands, purchase supplies, and keep the refrigerator stocked.

        • Pick up contractors and employees from the airport as needed.

        • Take on miscellaneous tasks from ship supervisors to keep daily work moving.

    Qualifications

      Core

      • U.S. citizenship is required.

      • Able to pass a background check.

      • Must have a reliable personal vehicle.

      • Able to work on-site at the Philadelphia Navy Yard.

      • Prepared to work the required schedule of 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, seven days per week, for seven weeks.

    What We Are Looking For

      • Responsiveness: Answers the phone and responds promptly when the team needs support.

      • Reliability: Opens and secures the ship on time without reminders.

      • Initiative: Recognizes what needs to be done and takes action without waiting to be asked.

      • Team-First Mentality: Looks for opportunities to take logistical work off the team’s plate so engineers and contractors can remain focused.

      • Discretion: Handles access to a secured site responsibly and professionally.

      • Startup Stamina: Comfortable working long hours, weekends, and in a fast-moving environment where priorities may change.

    What Success Looks Like

      A successful Site Support Associate keeps the team working without losing time to logistics. The right person is dependable, responsive, comfortable handling a wide variety of tasks, and willing to step in wherever support is needed during the seven-week assignment.
