FAST Labs defines the next generation of technology across BAE Systems’ Electronic Systems (ES) sector.
Internal to FAST Labs, the Sensing Technologies (ST) Product Line is seeking a Program Engineering Manager to support programs across the Tech Areas. The ST product line develops next-generation lasers, precision optical pointers, advanced seekers, and expendables. ST has established itself as a market leader in the development of EO/IR and RF technologies. Due to the varying sizes of R&D programs, a Program Engineering Manager (PEM) may be required to oversee multiple R&D efforts in the different Tech Areas. The following is a breakdown of responsibilities for the PEM role within ST
Responsibilities:
• Serve as engineering focal point for all activity within the projects including strategic planning, bid and proposal support for engineering content, engineering strategy and integrated plans on programs, engineering staffing, issue reporting, and risk and opportunity management
• Project execution leadership to technical team; plan, execute, and manage all engineering efforts within the project. This includes tailoring company processes and procedure to execute research programs
• Partner and collaborate with program managers, functional engineering managers, subcontractors, and customers, and factories to ensure program goals, requirements, and needs are understood and achieved
• Monitor project plans and execution to ensure technical and work scope requirements, schedule, and budget are well defined and maintained
• Effectively communicate with clear, concise messaging to teams and leadership
Because of the need for consistent, in-person collaboration and/or the requirement to perform all work onsite due to the nature of this particular role, it will be performed full-time on site. This means work will be conducted on location at a BAE Systems facility 100% of the time.
