Terran Orbital is seeking an experienced Sr. Electrical, Electronic & Electromechanical (EEE) Components/Parts, Materials & Processes (PM&P) Engineer to join our growing team. Reporting to the Mission Assurance Director
, the Sr. EEE/PM&P Engineer provides assurance to deliver affordable, high-performance satellite systems that provide product lifecycle reliability and safety and meet internal specifications and customer contract requirements.

• Work collaboratively with the Engineering EEE Parts Manager to advise design engineers on parts selection based on part reliability, availability, and manufacturing processes
• Evaluate EEE and PM&P contract requirements to identify and resolve gaps
• Evaluate performance, reliability, safety, and value considerations of EEE parts in product design to comply with company standards and customer requirements
• Serve as the prime interface with customers on parts, materials, and process requirements
• Support reliability risk mitigation by bringing together supply chain, design engineers, and production/manufacturing and driving to closure
• Use reliability analysis, failure models and reliability metrics to assess PM&P-related risks. Use software tools (e.g. Sherlock) to simulate PCBA stresses that impact flight reliability and provide corrective design solutions
• Advise engineering on parts selection based on reliability, availability, and manufacturing processes
• Assess part reliability risks and provide feedback to guide selection
• Evaluate electrical, thermal, and mechanical characteristics of integrated circuits, components, sub-components, and PCBAs to determine root cause of failure. Coordinate, drive, and perform EEE parts/PM&P root cause failure analysis
• Generate failure reports and recommend corrective actions to prevent recurrence of problems
• Develop and track metrics on failure analyses to resolve systematic issues and root causes
• Compile and deliver parts, materials, and processes lists to meet contract requirements
• Provide input to program managers and proposal teams to evaluate and ensure implementation of EEE/PM&P requirements
• Lead initiatives to develop/improve PM&P processes and practices
• Ensure EEE/PM&P requirements flow down to suppliers and subcontractors
• Manage the PM&P program including oversight of subcontractor PM&P practices
• Manage the PM&P Control Plan and associated EEE/PM&P procedures.
• Manage Counterfeit Parts Prevention Program, including Non-Standard Parts/Materials Approval Requests (NSPAR/NSMAR) (internal and from subcontractors)
• Perform other duties as assigned

• BS degree in Electrical Engineering
• 5+ years relevant electrical engineering experience, preferably in aerospace
• EEE parts engineering, including reliability, utilization, obsolescence, and parts library
• Application of EEE/PM&P military and industry standards, e.g. MIL, NASA, ISO, ECSS, IPC
• Analysis of designs, materials, processes, systems, and manufacturing practices for reliability
• Part, material, and process analyses to troubleshoot failures and recommend solutions
• Experience leading multi-functional failure analysis/investigation and root cause analysis (RCCA)
• Counterfeit parts and materials management including inspection techniques and test methods
• Review EEE/PM&P-related contract requirements against internal practices/procedures and clearly communicate…
