Job Description

You will be the Sustainment Program Engineer for the Integrated Radar System Test (IRST) LSE Depot Team. Our team is responsible for end to end sustainment of the IRST product line – from integration and logistics planning through design, test, repair, and eventual disposal – ensuring every solution meets technical, schedule, and cost constraints while delivering seamless support to the customer.

What You Will Be Doing

As the Sustainment Program Engineer you will be the primary driver of day to day depot operations, linking production, logistics, and engineering to keep the IRST system flying high. You will own the planning and execution of depot repairs, test equipment support, hardware evaluation, and modification activities, while serving as the go to logistics contact for internal teams and the customer.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Lead planning, material handling, and hardware movement for depot repairs and rework.
• Manage supply chain functions: packaging, shipping, receiving, and inventory control.
• Operate and support depot test equipment, troubleshooting issues and validating fixes.
• Conduct hardware evaluations, modifications, and corrective actions to meet engineering and contract requirements.
• Perform comprehensive sustainment analyses (concept, design, fabrication, test, operation, maintenance, disposal).
• Develop and maintain sustainment plans, interface studies, timelines, and cost/risk assessments.
• Ensure compliance with engineering standards, contract terms, and schedule milestones.
• Collaborate cross functionally with ILS, production repair, procurement, PP&C, quality, engineering, and program leadership—both internal and external.
• Provide technical advice and training on system design and specifications to customers and internal stakeholders.
