TL;DR · Product Sourcing Engineer, Maritime

The Product Sourcing Engineer manages the strategic supply network development and cost management for maritime product hardware across its entire lifecycle. Working cross-functionally with engineering, quality, and manufacturing teams, this individual conducts supplier selection, performs value-stream mapping to optimize lead times, and executes BOM risk assessments including component sourcing. Key responsibilities include managing CAPEX during NPI, performing cost engineering activities to minimize total cost of ownership, and navigating issues like tariffs or inflation. The role requires expertise in procurement engineering, electronics and mechanical device design, and supplier engagement. Candidates should possess a technical degree and experience in high-mix, low-volume environments. This position addresses the complex challenge of developing hardware for maritime systems by ensuring manufacturing flexibility, component qualification, and complexity reduction through commonality optimization and supplier rationalization to ensure reliable production.

What you'll do

  • Select suppliers for specific products using the approved supplier list.
  • Partner with strategic suppliers to conduct concept scoping, feature trade-offs, and joint design development.
  • Develop and consolidate manufacturing Bills of Materials (BOM) to support production scaling.
  • Manage capital expenditures (CAPEX) throughout the New Product Introduction (NPI) phase.
  • Perform value-stream mapping to optimize supply network lead times and flexibility.
  • Conduct BOM risk assessments including the identification of alternate component sources.
  • Ensure all components are fully qualified before the start of production.
  • Lead cost engineering activities to manage total cost of ownership and mitigate inflation or tariff impacts.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering or another technical field.
  • 3+ years of experience in sourcing engineering, supplier engagement and development, or design of electronics and/or mechanical devices.
  • Domain expertise in value/procurement engineering or TCO-related work at the component and product level.
  • Ability to travel between 10% and 40% of the time as required by program needs.
  • Ability to relocate to Costa Mesa, CA if not already local.
  • Master's degree or advanced technical degree preferred.
  • Experience in high-mix, low-volume high-tech product development and fast-paced startup environments preferred.
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
