Job Description
The Staff Industrial Engineer, Sustainment Analytics, leads data-driven sustainment decisions by integrating maintenance, FRACAS, failure and repair, supply-chain, operational demand, configuration, labor, and fleet-trend data to identify drivers of downtime, maintenance burden, readiness risk, and lifecycle cost.
The role translates these insights into structured analyses, defensible trade studies, and actionable recommendations that optimize maintenance levels, repair capability, spares, manpower, support equipment, processes, and sustainment strategy—improving fleet readiness, repair throughput, maintenance effectiveness, and total cost of ownership.
The engineer partners closely with Fleet Support Engineering, Reliability and Maintainability Engineering, Product Engineering, Reliability Data Engineering, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Finance, and Operations to ensure sustainment decisions improve fleet availability, customer support, affordability, and long-term system performance.
