The Liaison Engineering Manager, Avionics leads the production-facing engineering function for the avionics bus hardware within the Avionics Electrical Engineering organization. This role involves managing a team of engineers to support new product introduction and sustaining engineering for multiple avionics line replaceable units. Key responsibilities include establishing production support models, driving the transition of hardware from development to stable production, and leading root-cause investigations for production test failures. The manager must utilize production data regarding yield, failure trends, and nonconformance to drive improvements in manufacturing test flows and engineering documentation. The role requires expertise in PCBA-level hardware, electrical test, hardware bring-up, and troubleshooting. This position solves the technical challenge of ensuring complex satellite bus hardware can be repeatedly built, tested, and delivered in high-rate production environments.

What you'll do

  • Lead a team of engineers responsible for new product introduction and sustaining engineering for avionics bus hardware.
  • Drive the successful transition of new and revised avionics hardware from development into stable production.
  • Provide rapid technical response to production hardware issues, including triage, root-cause investigation, and corrective action.
  • Establish operating mechanisms for MRB, production hardware troubleshooting, and acceptance test issues across the portfolio.
  • Use production data to identify systemic improvement opportunities for yield, failure trends, and test escapes.
  • Drive improvements to manufacturing test flows, troubleshooting methods, and engineering documentation.
  • Communicate production engineering health, technical risks, and recovery plans to engineering and program leadership.

What we're looking for

  • Must be a U.S. citizen, national, permanent resident, or lawfully admitted as a refugee or granted asylum.
  • Bachelor's degree or above in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or equivalent.
  • Master's degree or above in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or equivalent (preferred).
  • 7+ years of experience in hardware development, test, sustaining engineering, manufacturing engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
  • 3+ years of experience in a management, engineering leadership, or team-lead function.
  • Experience supporting electronic hardware across the product lifecycle from development through production.
  • Experience leading root-cause investigations and corrective actions for complex electronic hardware issues.
  • Export Control Requirement: Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates.
