Job Description:

The AMRAAM Program Office is hiring experienced Electrical and Computer Engineers for Production Support, specializing in Failure Analysis. Production engineers will be responsible for addressing the many production issues encountered with various issues to include Diminishing Manufacturer Sources, various circuit boards, components and epoxy coatings. The scope of work includes investigating various failures in the field as well as addressing lapses in production quality. A primary duty is analyzing component failures and subsequently identifying necessary fixes and workarounds to sustain efficient production schedules and quality control. Candidates must possess strong analytical skills necessary to resolve complex component failure modes that determine whether retesting is necessary at the factory level.

LOCATION - Warner Robin, GA

Clearance - Secret (with special access)

AMRAAM Experience - 3yrs minimum up to 10+

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (WR-ALC) at Robins Air Force Base is involved in the sustainment and maintenance of the AIM-120 AMRAAM (Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile) inventory, specifically focusing on certain component-level work.

Key activities include:

• Rocket Motor Transfers: The base has been involved in projects to transfer good rocket motors from older AIM-120A missiles to newer AIM-120B/C missiles, which have higher capabilities and can be updated with current software.
• Avionics Maintenance: The 402nd Electronics Maintenance Group at WR-ALC is a center of excellence for avionics repair, which includes working on electronic aspects of various systems, potentially including certain AMRAAM components, to provide combat-ready parts.
• Logistics Management: The base provides life cycle sustainment support and logistics management for various armament and electronic commodities, which includes the AMRAAM system.
• Hosting International Reviews: Warner Robins hosts the "AMRAAM International Users' Review," a forum for partner nations to discuss the missile program.

While the WR-ALC primarily performs programmed depot maintenance on specific aircraft like the F-15, C-5, C-130, and C-17, its role regarding the AMRAAM is more focused on logistics support, component repair/sustainment, and specific modernization programs, rather than full missile production or complete overhaul of the entire weapon system.
