Skills

  • Degree in a technical field (mechanical, electrical, systems engineering, math or hard science).
  • 5+ years in Operations roles such as Process, Industrial, or Manufacturing Engineering, Strategic Sourcing, or electromechanical design.
  • Hands-on experience manufacturing hardware (machining, fabrication, soldering, assembly, etc.).
  • Experience developing make-vs-buy analyses and supplier/business-case evaluation.

  • Eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret security clearance.

Responsibilities

  • Own technical and commercial aspects of the manufacturing value chain for assigned products to ensure scalable production capability.
  • Evaluate, plan, and prioritize short- and long-term supply chain, production, and test optimizations to meet production output goals.
  • Develop business cases for vertical integration or strategic supplier partnerships to accelerate production scalability.
  • Continuously evaluate make-vs-buy decisions for sub-assemblies to optimize total cost of ownership, lead time, and flexibility.
  • Work hands-on with contract manufacturers to implement repeatable processes for quick-turn development and at-scale production and testing.
  • Be on-site at current and potential operations partners to manage technical and commercial needs and resolve production issues.
  • Collaborate with technicians and engineers to build prototypes and production hardware and support internal/external testing.
  • Create and maintain manufacturing documentation required for reliable, high-volume hardware production.
  • Reduce complexity through component/supplier rationalization and commonality optimization.

Education

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, systems engineering, mathematics, physics, or other hard science.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans with low or no cost for U.S. employees.
  • Generous PTO and company holiday calendar, including December holiday hiatus.
  • 16 weeks paid Caregiver & Wellness Leave; family planning and parenting support (fertility, adoption, gestational carrier).
  • Platinum-level mental health resources and work-life services (therapy, coaching, legal/financial support).
  • Professional development stipend and relocation assistance (role-dependent).
