Job description

Overview

We’re seeking a Configuration Management (CM) Engineer to own and enforce product configuration control across engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain systems. The ideal candidate has a strong understanding of class I vs class II changes, product lifecycle management (PLM), and ERP bill-of-material (BOM) integrity. This role ensures that as-designed, as-planned, and as-built configurations align at every stage of production.

Key Responsibilities

Define, implement, and enforce configuration control rules, including Class I vs Class II change thresholds (engineering vs minor production impacts).
Manage and maintain BOM integrity across ERP, PLM, and MES systems.
Perform as-built vs as-designed audits, ensuring hardware traceability between work orders, BOM revisions, and engineering documentation.
Collaborate with engineering to validate part numbers, revisions, and metadata before release to the BOM.
Liaise with Planning and Production Control to ensure ERP BOMs accurately reflect approved configurations and effectivity dates.
Create and maintain change control documentation, including ECOs, ECRs, deviations, and waivers.
Support ERP/PLM data migration, part-number standardization, and revision control efforts.
Develop configuration baselines for prototype, qualification, and flight hardware.
Participate in internal audits and ensure compliance with AS9100, ISO 9001, and company-specific QMS requirements.
Serve as a subject matter expert for configuration management processes and digital thread traceability.

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Manufacturing Systems, or related field.
5–10 years of experience in Configuration Management, Product Lifecycle, or Systems Engineering within aerospace, defense, or complex hardware manufacturing.
Proven experience with ERP (e.g., NetSuite, SAP, Oracle) and PLM (e.g., Arena, Teamcenter, Windchill) systems.
Strong understanding of Engineering Change Control (ECO/ECR) and revision management.
Familiarity with BOM structures, serial number traceability, and work order management.
Excellent attention to detail, documentation, and cross-functional communication skills.
Knowledge of AS9100, ISO 9001, and ITAR compliance preferred.
