Обязанности

Serve as the technical point of contact for assigned parts and assemblies of the rocket, solving emergent challenges at suppliers, and mitigating risk to the manifest by addressing high-impact manufacturing and quality challenges
Own the new product introduction of new parts and assemblies on the rocket, including identifying and reviewing suppliers, and developing a reliable process for ramping manufacturing to rate for parts that are new, undergoing drawing changes, or undergoing re-sourcing at a new supplier
Collaborate with design, R&D, commercial supply chain, hardware reliability, and production teams to effectively manage product portfolio
Analyze production and process data to drive technical product improvements and related engineering drawing updates, reducing risk and potential defect opportunities as well as improving manufacturability, manufacturing lead times, and cost
Review issues on assigned parts and solve to the root cause, implementing changes at the supplier, at or both, as appropriate, drive further actions to closure, and re-source to new suppliers where appropriate
Create and disposition issue tickets where needed, working with engineering counterparts to implement, but not limited to, required re-work, repair or use as-is disposition
Lead containment activities on assigned parts, working with cross-functional counterparts to agree on scope, path forward and ultimate resolution
Drive supplier root cause failure analysis and corrective actions associated with any quality gaps, escapes, or containments
Support procurement team to strategically source parts matched with supplier capabilities by reviewing and assessing supplier manufacturing processes and quality systems
Demonstrate innovation, technical excellence, attention to detail, self-direction and courage to push the technical envelope which is conventionally held in the industry.
Become thoroughly familiar with your assigned parts and the processes that make up the overall assembly and become the primary point of contact for supply chain related defects on your parts

was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars.
demands a new type of supply chain as we drive towards humanity on Mars. We require our suppliers to provide premium quality with rapidly evolving designs at increasingly ambitious volumes. We are actively looking for candidates who possess comprehensive knowledge of manufacturing and quality tools and have unrelenting motivation to enable suppliers for success. This position will support our Starship program and requires a combination of proven leadership and technical capabilities.
This is a highly technical position that requires practical experience in manufacturing engineering and new product development through stabilized production for an array of fabrication processes (components and assemblies) used in rockets and rocket engine avionics. The ideal candidate will have a broad and thorough understanding of electronics fabrication methodologies including printed circuit boards (PCBs), engineering laminates, electrochemical processes, printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs), and/or EEE components with their associated processes. This candidate must have the desire and capability to take on new challenges in unfamiliar areas to help enable our mission to Mars.
