• Analyze and support correction of equipment and software deficiencies; assist in solution development, integration, and testing.
• Evaluate engineering proposals and changes (e.g., ACSNs, ECPs, CCPs), FAA bulletins, and risk assessments from OEMs and subcontractors.
• Develop and review cost estimates and schedules, including IMPs, IMSs, and System Engineering Detail Schedules (SEDS).
• Provide advisory support for source selections and engineering requirement evaluations.
• Implement and support Life Cycle Systems Engineering (LCSE) and Operational Safety, Suitability, and Effectiveness (OSS&E) practices, including compliance tracking and documentation updates.
• Monitor OSS&E metrics and support coordination with stakeholders to maintain compliance.
• Implement Systems Engineering Plan (SEP) processes and identify/address gaps or shortfalls.
• Facilitate value stream mapping and apply Air Force Smart Operations for the 21st Century (AFSO21) practices to improve performance and efficiency.
• Translate production and operational needs into engineering goals; assess suitability, functionality, and manufacturability of systems.
• Manage configuration, data, and risk processes; support environmental assessments and technical audits.
• Conduct system design and feasibility assessments, reliability evaluations, and cost-performance analyses.
• Support Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action System (FRACAS) reviews and utilize G081 or equivalent systems for failure tracking and reporting.
• Evaluate OEM technical proposals for system compatibility, reliability, and maintainability.
• Ensure effective R&M strategies are integrated into program planning and execution with milestone-based verification.
