Responsibilities

Demonstrate the leadership qualities necessary to lead and maintain an effective and cohesive team. These qualities include demonstrating humility, your ability to drive a team to achieve its goals for our division and our customers, and your level of “people smarts” such as mutual trust and respect for others, and providing clear communication to your team, across the functions and management

Demonstrate the charisma, trust, and technical acumen for driving to resolution for complex issues involving engineering, operations, supply chain, quality, programs, and customer considerations. Prioritize cross-functional collaboration to achieve division and group-level goals. We are all in this together!

Support the full lifecycle of the platform, with a heavy emphasis on two areas: (1) ensuring development programs are well-positioned for deterministic execution with technically sound initial assumptions, risk balancing, and structures in place for effective change management; and (2) ensuring production or field quality issues are resolved quickly, in accordance with the terms of the contract(s), and with an eye toward sustaining a positive customer relationship

Maintain accountability to the IPT Lead Manager for adherence to baselined plans from technical, scope, budget, and schedule perspectives. She/he is also accountable, from a technical perspective, for leading and validating Comprehensive-Estimation-at-Complete (CEAC) activities, variance explanations and Return-to-Green (RTG) planning as needed

Ensure technical solutions and initiatives are fully integrated into functional and division business objectives, priorities, and technology roadmaps, by aligning closely with division and site leadership to assess present and future business needs and direction

Act in full coordination with Functional Engineering, Product Engineering, the Office of Chief Engineers, and Business Unit/Program leadership to ensure New Product Introduction (NPI) efforts are planned and executed successfully, effectively managed through production ramp-up challenges, and sustained through the entire production run

Deliver on the technical, scope, budget, and schedule commitments made to Moog’s Business Sector and its customers for development and production programs. Have a deep understanding of earned value management (EVM) techniques and project management fundamentals like critical path analysis, risk/scope/change management, product cost vs. price, etc

Reduce the potential for product quality issues before they impact a customer, thereby maintaining the customer’s confidence in Moog as a critical partner

Establish relationships with customer and Moog networks built on trust and competence. Maintain good emotional intelligence, deliver clear and transparent communication, and actively listen to the “voice of the customer.”

Demonstrate effective “systems thinking” and the ability to understand how technical performance, producibility and product quality, business considerations, and customer needs all must be balanced

Provide technical perspective and guidance regarding potential business decisions that may have long-term financial or strategic impact. Be a key influence in driving the group’s efforts to increase profitability

Maintain awareness of customer and Moog technology roadmaps and be a key influence in aligning efforts to meet future customer needs and position Moog to be in unique positions to offer innovative solutions
