A "Snipe" in the Navy is an enlisted person in an engineering rating, specifically those rates that work below the waterline in Engineering Main Propulsion spaces. They include Machinist's Mates, Boiler Techs and Electrician's Mate.
"Snipe" is a nickname for someone who works in the Engineering department on a ship. Additionally, those who work in technical rates, or jobs, are usually referred to as "twidgets."
From an Engineering officer named John Snipe. There was a lot of difficulty in maintaining discipline on a ship and having a clear line of command. The engineering officer was responsible for keeping the ship running, but dependent on the supply group and others for their needs. John Snipe demanded equal berthing and quarters for his team and eventually got it. He's crew was known as Snipe's and that was shortened to Snipe.
