Job Description
You don't see it, but it's there. Our employees work on the world's most advanced electronics
- from saving emissions in the City of Lights to powering the Mars Rover to protecting the F- 35 fighter jet. At Electronic Systems, you'll be among the brightest minds, working on the aerospace and defense industry's most difficult problems. Drawing strength from our differences, we're innovating for the future. And you can, too. Our flexible work environment provides you a chance to change the world without giving up your personal life. We put our customers first - exemplified by our missions: "We Protect Those Who Protect Us®" and "We Innovate For Those Who Move The WorldTM." Sound like a team you want to be a part of? Come build your career with BAE Systems.

In Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Systems, you'll help develop systems that sense, control, exploit and disseminate actionable information to warfighters supporting a variety of missions.

BAE Systems is seeking a Product Producibility and Launch Program Engineer (P2L Engineer) to provide design expertise and leadership within our emerging and development programs.

The work we do at BAE Systems matters. We create innovative technologies and solutions that provide our military and commercial customers an edge. We seek strong technical engineers with passion and integrity, the ability to solve complex problems, and an interest in making a significant impact. Are you up for the challenge? It's more than a job. It's inspired work.

The successful candidate will have expertise in the following areas:
  • Design For Manufacturability (DFM)
  • Design For Testability (DFT)
  • Design To Unit Production Cost (DTUPC)
  • Transition to Production (TTP).

In this role, the P2L Program Engineer is charged with providing technical leadership, support, and direction for new product designs intended to be transitioned into Production from Engineering. Focusing on affordability and producibility activities early in the design process, the P2L Engineer will help drive technology trends into our factories to maximize design flexibility, manufacturability, and lower overall product costs.

Core responsibilities include:
  • The P2L Engineer is a "Design for Excellence" (DFX) practitioner versed in DFM, DFT, DTUPC and Transition to Production (TTP) methods, tools, and best practices
  • Responsible Engineer for providing P2L Capability Group design expertise on hardware products including participation in all internal design reviews and architecture review boards
  • Drives producible product architecture early in the product life cycle providing a "Left Shift" mentality to engage DFM, DFT and DTUPC compliance.
  • Provides program expertise in the areas of Manufacturing Readiness Assessments (MRAs) as well as Production Readiness Reviews (PRRs)
  • Responsible for following the Systems, Hardware, and Integrated Test Engineering processes. Promotes the use of design guidelines during product development
  • Serves as conduit to Operations staffing to include Advanced Manufacturing, Process/Test Engineering, and Product Engineering. Also provides technical support for rapid prototyping
  • Collaborates on Make/Buy decisions consistent with the Manufacturing Realization Strategy and Factory Capability Matrix
  • Ensures preferred part and supplier selection alignment with supply chain strategy.
  • Utilizes Design to Cost (DTC) based on a Price-to-Win as a methodology to drive designs to converge on cost instead of allowing cost to converge on design
  • Understands design margins and prediction of factory and supplier yields through CpK analysis
  • Participates in proposal and cost estimating activities related to P2L Capability Group functions
Because of the need for consistent, in-person collaboration and/or the requirement to perform all work onsite due to the nature of this particular role, it will be performed full-time on site. This means work will be conducted on location at a BAE Systems facility 100% of the time.

**Please note that pursuant to a government contract, this specific position requires US citizenship**

  • A Bachelor's Degree and 6 years work experience or equivalent experience
  • Background in Design To Unit Production Cost (DTUPC) practices

  • Practical understanding of product development and the DoD product development lifecycle
  • Capable of leading product producibility efforts on small / medium program design teams
  • Background in product development, DFM, DFT, New Product Introduction
  • Background in product affordability management
  • Ability to obtain a DOD Secret Security Clearance
