TL;DR · Product Sourcing Engineer

The Senior Product Sourcing Engineer joins the Maritime team to drive strategic supply network development and cost management for autonomous underwater vehicle hardware across its entire lifecycle. Working cross-functionally with engineering, quality, and manufacturing teams, this individual manages supplier selection, contract negotiations, and total cost of ownership modeling. Key responsibilities include developing manufacturing bills of materials, conducting value-stream mapping to optimize lead times, performing risk assessments, and managing component qualifications for new product introductions. The role requires a technical degree in mechanical or electrical engineering and expertise in procurement, commodity management, and supplier development. Candidates must navigate high-mix, low-volume environments while managing complex projects involving mechanical and electronics designs. This position addresses the challenge of scaling production for advanced subsea robotics and maritime vehicles designed for demanding seabed exploration and long-range underwater operations.

What you'll do

  • Develop and execute sourcing strategies using market knowledge, supplier rationalization, and commodity pricing plans.
  • Manage the development and consolidation of manufacturing Bills of Materials (BOM) for internal and external production.
  • Execute NPI component procurement to ensure on-time delivery and scale up manufacturing operations.
  • Lead cost engineering activities to align bottom-up costs with product lifecycle total cost of ownership.
  • Conduct value-stream mapping to optimize supply network lead times and flexibility.
  • Perform BOM risk assessments and develop mitigation plans for individual parts.
  • Manage supplier-related CAPEX requests and verification throughout the New Product Introduction phase.
  • Design and implement new supply chain processes and systems built for scalability.

What we're looking for

  • Must have a Bachelor’s degree in engineering (BSME, BSEE) or another related technical field.
  • Experience in the design and development of mechanical or electronics devices is preferred.
  • Experience in advanced sourcing activities, such as working as a commodity or sourcing manager, is preferred.
  • Experience in supplier development regarding technology, process, or supply chain is preferred.
  • Experience with early supplier engagement before product or engineering requirements are finalized is preferred.
  • Must possess domain expertise in value/procurement engineering or TCO-related work at the component and product level.
  • Familiarity with developing high-tech products in a high-mix, low-volume environment is required.
  • Must be eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
