ABOUT THE JOB:
As a key member of our team, you will own the manufacturing value chain for a specific set of products, overseeing both technical and commercial operations to ensure scalable production capabilities. Your role will involve evaluating and optimizing supply chain processes, developing business cases for strategic partnerships, and making informed make-or-buy decisions to enhance production efficiency. You will collaborate closely with contract manufacturers and engineering teams, addressing production challenges and driving continuous improvement to meet business objectives.
WHAT YOU’LL DO:- Own the manufacturing value chain for a certain set of products, covering both technical and commercial operations; ensuring the capability to produce at needed scale.
- Evaluate, plan, and prioritize long-term and short-term supply chain, production, and test optimizations to ensure capability and reliability of the value stream to meet business production output goals and objectives.
- Develop and communicate business cases to support vertical integration or value stream diversification opportunities where strategic supply partnerships will accelerate production output and product development.
- Continuously evaluate make vs. buy decisions for sub-assemblies in the value stream; break the system into logical subassemblies and process flows to maximize total cost of ownership, production capability, and reliability (lead time and flexibility).
- Collaborate with contract manufacturers within the critical product value stream to develop and execute repeatable processes for quick-turn development as well as at-scale production and testing.
- Be on site at current and future operations partners, managing technical and commercial needs for the value stream, solving ongoing production issues, improving capacity, and evaluating potential partners.
- Work with technicians and other engineers (SMEs) hands-on, building prototype and production hardware and supporting hardware for internal and external use.
- Create documentation required for successfully manufacturing hardware at scale.
- Reduce complexity through commonality optimization and component/supplier rationalization.
- Degree in a technical field such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, systems engineering, math, or a hard science.
- 5+ years of operations experience in areas such as Process Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Strategic Sourcing, or in the design of electromechanical hardware.
- Demonstrated ability to creatively deliver electromechanical hardware in a resource-constrained environment.
- Personal experience physically manufacturing hardware via machining, fabrication, soldering, assembly, or similar; projects outside work are a plus.
- A genuine interest in Operations and a drive to push for improvements.
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
- Experience in the assembly and test of precision mechanisms.
- Exposure to ISO 9001/AS 9100 quality systems.
- Demonstrated familiarity with optical system integration and test.
