About The Position

At ULA, success comes through the efforts of a strong, united team. As a Design Modeling and Configuration Engineer with ULA, you will be collaborating with an innovative technical team. You will work to create and maintain software, hardware, and documentation configuration baselines through the use of the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) System, Teamcenter Review. You will update and process electrical and mechanical design changes to ensure compliance with modeling and design standards while ensuring compliance to engineering and configuration management procedures, company and industry standards. The role will include duties and responsibilities such as ensuring that all engineering change requests are appropriately documented, reviewed, approved, and communicated in a timely manner. Generating, populating, and submitting change requests including managing the compilation and synthesis of impact analyses. Executing and implementing change notices, ensuring that the checklist of change implementation activities is fully completed, including validating the completion of changes to the Engineering and Manufacturing Bills of Materials, and setting effectivity for changes. Generating insights into the integrity and efficacy of the change process, including calculating the cost of change, tracking the speed and rate of rework of changes, etc. Managing and curating the program configuration data needed for critical design gate reviews. Working with Configuration Management Analysts to ensure that critical data is captured, recorded, and distributed. Analyzing product baselines (EBOM, MBOMs etc.) in Teamcenter for compliance to industry and organization standards. Supporting configuration management reviews and audits, including FCA/PCA and providing direction before, during, and after the events to prevent or resolve issues. Performing periodic audits of as-built records as product definition data in Teamcenter (EBOM, MBOM etc.). Working with Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality Assurance, and Supply Chain teams to understand proposed design changes and their impact. Working with stakeholder teams (Engineering, Manufacturing etc.) to conduct thorough impact assessments to identify potential risks and implications of proposed changes, working closely with stakeholders to devise mitigation strategies. Provide CAD tool user support, develop and manage large complex 3D model structures to define the completed engineering design, producing and manipulating 3D visualizations for design integration, visual comprehension and understanding of complex designs and structures. Develop alternative 3D models to perform leading-edge technology efforts, such as model-based definitions, additive manufacturing (3D printing), and proposed vehicle designs. Driving the future of digital engineering and manufacturing at ULA.
