Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain inventory models and stock strategies to maximize asset availability within defined budgetary constraints.

• Optimize inventory turnover, monitor usage and demand trends, and support execution of budgetary responsibilities for assigned material portfolios.

• Conduct supportability and risk analyses to identify potential supply chain disconnects and recommend mitigation actions (e.g., alternate sourcing, repair vs. replace, safety stock adjustments).
• Support procurement activities by providing logistics input, validating requirements, and helping prioritize buys to align with sustainment posture and fleet needs.
• Ensure Bills of Material (BOMs) and associated logistics data are accurate and available to support sustainment activities and scheduled maintenance or modification events.
• Support the stand‑up and maturation of centralized inventory control processes (e.g., C‑ICP), including definition of roles, processes, and performance metrics.
• Integrate with Global Supply Chain and U.S. Government counterparts to align material strategies, resolve issues, and ensure coordinated support to the warfighter.
• Monitor and track sustainment metrics (e.g., fill rate, backorders, days of supply, not mission capable for supply) and drive corrective actions as needed.
• Interface with internal functional and program organizations (engineering, supply chain, maintenance, finance) and work closely with external customers to resolve issues and communicate status.
• Support configuration and data integrity for logistics records to ensure alignment between engineering configuration and supply support structures.
• For more senior candidates: provide mentoring to junior logistics analysts and support continuous improvement initiatives for tools, processes, and data quality.

Basic Qualifications

• Must have a Bachelor’s degree and 12 years of related experience in logistics, supply chain, or maintenance; OR a Master’s degree and 10 years of related experience; OR a PhD and 8 years of related experience.
• Must have experience with Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
• Must be able to obtain and/or transfer and maintain a final U.S. adjudicated government Secret clearance and any program access(es) required for the position within a reasonable period of time, as determined by the Company.

Preferred Qualifications

• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and technical data to determine parts applicability and usage.
• Experience with technical specifications and industry standards relevant to aircraft parts and maintenance.
• Solid understanding of government aircraft maintenance and supply processes and systems.
• Experience with sustainment of large weapon system programs (e.g., fighter, bomber, ISR, or autonomous systems).
• Experience integrating with Global Supply Chain organizations and U.S. Government logistics counterparts.
• Experience supporting the stand‑up or operation of centralized inventory control processes (e.g., C‑ICP or equivalent).
• Experience working within SAP or similar enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems for material management and logistics.
• Prior experience as a Government Equipment Specialist or Aircraft Maintenance Technician.
• Hands‑on experience with logistics and engineering data tools such as Teamcenter Enterprise, Engineering Logistics Management System (ELMS/ELMA), and Engineering Source Data (ESD).
