Working under the guidance of experienced Configuration Management professionals, you’ll maintain configuration management systems, support data remediation, manage change items and help ensure documents, parts and other configuration items are correctly recorded and structured in accordance with program plans, procedures and contractual requirements.

You’ll also play an important role in supporting technical and engineering governance, including coordinating review boards, preparing agendas and minutes, tracking approvals and signatures, and generating configuration status reports.

You’ll contribute to Functional and Physical Configuration Audits, technical documentation, risk assessments and process improvement activities, while working collaboratively with project teams and stakeholders to resolve issues, improve data integrity and ensure configuration management processes are consistently applied across the program.
