About the role

Senior Manufacturing Engineer to own the recertification and repair operation for Dive-LD Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) in Quonset, RI, driving end-to-end manufacturing processes for recertification, repair, and refurbishment, and partnering with cross-functional teams to scale depot-level operations.

Responsibilities

  • Define and own the recertification test flow that gates a repaired or overhauled vehicle's return to service, in partnership with Test Engineering and Quality
  • Close the feedback loop to Design and Sustaining Engineering: turn field failure data into prioritized design changes, ECRs, and process improvements
  • Stand up planning, scheduling, and material flows for refurb/overhaul cycles, coordinating with Supply Chain on long-lead spares and obsolescence
  • Apply Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, or other methodologies to reduce turnaround time, scrap, and rework on the recert/repair line
  • Coordinate with cross-functional teams, including Design, Quality, Supply Chain, Test, and Field Service, to ensure repaired hardware meets the same standards as new production
  • Mentor and support junior engineers and manufacturing technicians working the recert/repair line
  • Stay abreast of technological advancements and industry trends in depot operations, sustainment, and reliability engineering to drive innovation in how we keep the fleet ready

Qualifications
