Position Description:

Carries out moderately well-defined engineering assignments under general supervision. Assures technical work is done according to defined processes and assures that work products conform to established standards. Performs analysis of design and support system concepts to determine the viability of the design in the customer’s logistic structure. Functions as part of the design team in developing the optimum design that meets all customer requirements. Performs Maintainability analysis and modeling; modifies/develops models to support analysis when adequate models are not available. Performs analysis tasks for systems in all phases of the life cycle. May represent BAE Systems at Program and Design Reviews. Provides design alternatives to improve supportability.

Skills Required:

Primary Duties and Responsibilities:

• Assists in the development of plans for managing Maintainability projects which define Maintainability engineering products and processes. Provides cost, quality, schedule, and performance information to a more senior level Maintainability engineer to help ensure projects and tasks meet requirements.
• Assists in identifying and defining Line Replaceable Units/Modules or Shop Replaceable Units for which analysis needs to be performed.
• Assists in performing Level of Repair Analysis as required to determine the most cost-effective alternative to perform maintenance tasks over the life of the end item of equipment.
• Applies a wide range of engineering design and/or analytical theory, principles, techniques, and practices to a complex portion of a technical project.
• Reviews the design concept and preliminary design for impacts to supportability. Influences the design effort to ensure maintenance tasks can be accomplished effectively by the end user.
• Reviews field support requirements and recommends tool and test equipment.
• Recommends changes to designs based on the analysis performed where opportunities exist to improve the supportability and life cycle cost of the system.
• Assists in the planning, execution, and reporting on Maintainability Demonstrations to demonstrate and validate that a system under design will be supportable when fielded.
• Applies broad knowledge of the design of the organization's products, technology, system interactions to solve complex engineering problems which have not been clearly defined.
• Develops and writes technical documentation, makes revisions to existing documentation, and provides input to technical papers or presentations. Delivers technical presentations.
• Performs technical analysis, testing, calculations, and evaluation of results to solve complex engineering problems, using specialized equipment, and/or by creating or using computer programs, models, or simulations.
• Prepares and presents project technical results, recommendations, and solutions to internal customers. May prepare and present project technical results, recommendations, and solutions to external customers.
• Develops and maintains effective relationships with internal customers to resolve complex technical problems and implement solutions.
• Gains and maintains knowledge of relevant engineering discipline(s), industry practices, trends, and applications.
• Maintains a safe work environment and ensures compliance with safety objectives, policies, and rules.
• Shares responsibility for self-development with immediate supervisor.

Experience Required:
