Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) Engineering Lead

BAE Systems•Nashua, NH

1d•$126,305 - $214,718•Hybrid

About The Position

BAE is seeking an experienced Integrated Logistics/Product Support (ILS/IPS) Engineering lead to fill a key role on advanced electronic systems design/development programs and/or long-term production/sustainment program teams. Applicants must demonstrate a solid understanding of the 12 IPS Elements and their application during the acquisition process and under through-life sustainment programs and will be familiar with current Department of War (DoW) acquisition, sustainment and support strategies. The right candidate will demonstrate the in-depth logistics engineering knowledge and experience in executing engineering tasks surrounding new system architectures beginning with development and extending into fielding and sustainment. They will be expected to understand team dynamics and project planning through work with program managers and other engineering staff and act as the primary point of contact to help lead, coordinate, execute, and monitor formal task completion of ILS/IPS deliverables and personnel (ILS Engineers, Technical Writers, Trainers etc.) who may be needed to support their assigned programs. They may be customer-facing in their role, and as such must be able to respond to internal and external inquiries on logistics and sustainment priorities and concerns when required. Please note that pursuant to a government contract, this specific position requires US citizenship status. Because of the need for intermittent in-person collaboration and/or the requirement to perform a portion of work onsite, this position will be considered hybrid. This means work will be conducted on location at a BAE Systems facility as well as remotely, when applicable.
