About the role

Senior cross-functional role owning manufacturing readiness and production performance of the external supply base for the Undersea, Reconnaissance & Strike business line, focused on industrializing the Dive-LD vehicle’s supply chain (pressure vessels, structures, subsea connectors, electronics, power systems, sensors) from NPI to rate production.

Responsibilities

  • Own supplier industrialization end-to-end for an assigned URS product line, from NPI build through rate production, across the full multi-level vehicle BOM.
  • Analyze and validate true supplier capacity through value stream mapping, takt and cycle time analysis, and constraint identification — and translate that into a defensible, bottoms-up statement of what each supplier can deliver against our production plan
  • Partner directly with our suppliers' manufacturing and industrial engineering teams to optimize process flow, factory layout, work cell design, tooling, and material presentation to reduce cycle time, WIP, and touch labor
  • Partner with Supplier Quality Engineering to drive PPAP, FAI (AS9102), control plans, PFMEA, and process qualification to closure ahead of production release
  • Establish and drive process performance and statistical process control (SPC) reviews at supplier sites, and convert the data into corrective action
  • Own bring-up of new production tooling, fixtures, and lines at supplier sites to ensure materials, processes, and tools are capable of meeting product performance, quality, and demand requirements
  • Own capacity expansion readiness and production ramp-up at suppliers, including the CAPEX, tooling lead time, and labor plan required to hit each rate step
  • Vet supplier production capability, facilities, equipment, and workforce for inclusion on the Approved Supplier List, and drive corrective action for suppliers that fall short
  • Identify and drive product and process improvements at supplier sites to lower part cost, reduce supply risk, eliminate potential defects, and improve cycle time over the product lifecycle
  • Support root cause task forces in tandem with Supply Chain, Quality, and the supplier, and be responsible for closing the loop on corrective and preventive actions at the supplier
  • Partner with Product Sourcing Engineers, Global Strategic Sourcing, and Buyer/Planners so that sourcing decisions, cost models, and material plans reflect real supplier capability
  • Partner with internal Manufacturing and Design Engineering to drive design-for-manufacturability feedback from the supply base back into the product before drawings are locked
  • Maintain a clear, current picture of industrialization risk across the product line and escalate it early, with a recovery plan attached

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience in industrialization, supplier quality, manufacturing engineering, or process engineering within a manufacturing environment
  • Bachelor's degree in engineering (BSME, BSEE, BSIE, manufacturing, materials) or a related technical field
  • Demonstrated experience taking a product or supplier from prototype/NPI through production ramp, including tooling and line bring-up
  • Hands-on experience with value stream mapping, capacity modeling, and production flow optimization on a live manufacturing floor
  • Working knowledge of quality fundamentals including PPAP, FAI/AS9102, control plans, PFMEA, and SPC
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, specifications, and GD&T
  • Ability to travel up to 25% to supplier sites, domestic and international
  • Ability to work onsite in Quincy, MA
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
