We are looking for a Staff Product Quality Engineer (Low Observable Systems) to support our Fury autonomous aircraft program at our Arsenal 1 facility in Ashville, OH. This role will be on the Quality Engineering Team and partner directly with the Air Dominance and Strike Team,…

What you'll do

• Act as the primary quality interface for Low Observable and RF systems within: the Fury program, deeply embedding yourself within design, manufacturing, and test teams to proactively influence and integrate quality principles from concept to high-rate production.

• Partner with LO and RF design teams to review designs and analyses of: antennas and LO features, providing critical Design for Manufacturability (DFM), Design for Testability (DFT), Design for Reliability (DFR), and Design for Inspectability (DFI) feedback. Ensure product specifications, drawings, material call-outs, and test requirements are robust and unambiguous for LO and RF performance.

• Review and approve the decomposition of system requirements for LO/RF, such: as link-budget analysis and RCS requirements, ensuring they are measurable, verifiable, and traceable through quality plans.

• Develop and implement comprehensive Quality Control Plans for the: manufacturing, integration, and sustainment of Fury's Low Observable structures, LO coatings, and integrated RF systems, ensuring adherence to specialized materials and processes.

• Lead the development and implementation of Production Part Approval Process: (PPAP) and First Article Inspection (FAI) for specialized LO/RF components and assemblies, ensuring compliance with unique material and geometric requirements.

• Drive the implementation and continuous improvement of in-process and final: product quality controls for LO and RF manufacturing.
