from BAE Systems careersJob Description
BAE Systems is seeking a highly motivated Component Engineer to join our Engineering Team, focused on DMSMS (Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages) support and Obsolescence Management for an exciting opportunity to support our commercially available Cloud-based application providing DMSMS services to customers around the globe. The ideal candidate will proactively monitor component lifecycles, identify risks within our Bills of Materials (BOMs), and develop mitigation strategies to ensure the continued availability of components for new design and legacy systems. You will work closely with design engineers, customers, and suppliers to manage parts quality, counterfeit avoidance, and component selection.
This role will be working directly with and providing leadership to an experienced obsolescence management team as we transition our legacy applications into state-of-the-art containerized microservices-based tools utilizing automation and artificial intelligence to meet and exceed our customers’ expectations.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Proactive Obsolescence Management: Conduct component surveillance using our Advanced Component Obsolescence Management (AVCOM) predictive tool, OEM surveys, GIDEP alerts, and other sources to forecast and mitigate DMSMS risks
- BOM Analysis & Scrubbing: Review and scrub Bills of Materials (BOMs) to identify obsolete, End-of-Life (EOL), or at-risk components
- Alternate Part Investigation: Generate comparison matrices showing the differences and similarities of parts.
