What you need

  • Degree in a technical field such as engineering, math, or a hard science.
  • 6+ years in manufacturing engineering or similar hardware production roles.
  • Experience delivering large mechanical assemblies, multi-domain integrated systems, or comparably complex integrated hardware from development into production.
  • Demonstrated direct team leadership experience, including managing or leading manufacturing engineers on complex hardware programs, with backing examples.
  • Proven experience taking a hardware product from prototype through productionization and rate production.
  • An attitude of world-class mission assurance, quality, attention to detail, and dedication.

Nice to have

  • Direct experience in vehicle-based system integration — automotive, military ground vehicles, tactical wheeled vehicles, heavy equipment, or similar upfit/integration environments (strongly preferred).
  • Experience managing a portfolio with mixed production profiles — simultaneously supporting low-rate integrations and higher-volume production lines.
  • Experience building or transforming successful production operation organizations and leading fast-paced, large-scale change management initiatives that influence culture, define tools & processes and improve competencies.
  • Experience owning sustainment or in-service engineering for fielded hardware, including ECO execution, retrofit campaigns, and field-return root cause analysis.
  • Experience leading and managing teams on fast-paced, complex, cross-functional programs.

What you get

  • Comprehensive, competitive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees.
  • Highly competitive equity grants included in the majority of full-time offers.

Worth weighing

  • No specific details on the company's culture or team dynamics are provided.
  • The role involves a significant amount of leadership and management responsibilities, which may not suit candidates looking for a purely technical position.
  • Travel is required to various sites, which may impact work-life balance.
