TL;DR · Senior Product Sourcing Engineer

As a Senior Product Sourcing Engineer on the Launched Effects team, you will drive strategic supply network development and cost management for the Altius family of systems. You will collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, quality, and manufacturing teams to manage product hardware across its entire lifecycle. Your daily responsibilities include conducting supplier selection, performing value-stream mapping to optimize lead times, managing CAPEX during new product introduction, and executing cost engineering activities to minimize total cost of ownership. You will also handle BOM risk assessments, component rationalization, and vendor qualifications. The role requires expertise in electronics or mechanical device development, advanced sourcing, and procurement engineering within high-mix, low-volume environments. This position addresses the challenge of manufacturing complex, autonomous aerial systems featuring advanced composites and avionics designed to survive extreme deployment environments for military applications.

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 "clean sheet" cost modeling.
  • Develop and consolidate manufacturing Bills of Materials (BOM) to scale production internally and with external partners.
  • Manage New Product Introduction (NPI) component procurement, capital expenditures, and vendor qualifications.
  • Perform value-stream mapping to optimize supply network lead times and flexibility.
  • Conduct BOM risk assessments including the identification of alternate component sources.
  • Reduce complexity through commonality optimization and component/supplier rationalization.
  • Lead cost engineering activities to manage total cost of ownership (TCO) and mitigate risks like tariffs or inflation.

What we're looking for

  • U.S. citizenship is required.
  • 7+ years of experience in the design and development of electronics or mechanical devices.
  • Experience in advanced sourcing activities including roles as commodity or sourcing managers.
  • Experience in supplier development regarding technology, process, and supply chain.
  • Experience in early supplier engagement before product or engineering requirement realization.
  • 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.
  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering (BSME, BSEE) or another related technical degree (preferred).
