Credence has an immediate opening for an Avionics Engineering Support at the senior level who will be primarily responsible for supporting the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center WAM (AFLCMC/WAM) directorate, F‑16 division at Hill AFB, UT.

F‑16 "Viper" AFLCMC/WAM is headquartered at Hill Air Force Base with units located at Wright‑Patterson Air Force Base, Tyndall Air Force Base, Eglin Air Force Base, and Davis‑Mountain Air Force Base. The F‑16 "Viper" is a multi‑role fighter jet delivering air‑to‑air, air‑to‑ground, and surveillance capabilities for the United States Air Force (USAF) and Coalition Partners.

The F‑16 program has the largest Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program in U.S. history producing over 4,500 jets for 24 countries. Each F‑16 FMS case is uniquely tailored to country requirements / development / funding. Presently, FMS production orders exist through 2030. Additionally, the F‑16 program includes the Multi‑National Fighter Program (MNFP). MNFP is not a typical FMS program, but a unique, cooperative USAF and development program implemented through the FMS process under the framework of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).

MNFP began in 1975 with the countries of Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway;
Portugal joined in 200.
