Moog is hiring an Electronics Product Engineer in our Military Aircraft Group for an onsite position in East Aurora, NY. As an Electronics Product Engineer, you will provide technical support for Moog's electronics products for military aircraft programs through the production phase of the product life cycle. Primary areas of responsibility include supporting production assembly and test areas by resolving issues, maintaining product integrity, and influencing product cost.

Reporting directly to the Electronics Product Engineering Manager, an Electronics Product Engineer provides engineering support for 1-2 product lines, that are typically mature in their production life cycle.

In your role as an Electronics Product Engineer, you can expect to support production by:

• Assuring and maintaining product integrity, quality and on-time delivery of production products. You will do this by collaborating with Moog personnel, resolving production problems, assisting in troubleshooting test failures, monitoring and resolving first pass yield (FPY) issues, servicing non-conformances, performing Material Review Board (MRB) analyses, and assisting in evaluation for possible notice of escape to customers.
• Identifying areas for producibility and quality improvements in product design and initiate these changes and planning for schedule impacts.

• Establish tasks and schedules for Product Engineering on team-based projects.
• Initiating clear production assembly/test instructions and providing training to operations personnel to maintain efficient production. These instructions include formal Work Instructions, Acceptance Test Procedures (ATP / PAT), engineering memos, and Electronic Historical Record (EHR) entries.
• Provide timely information to all affected operating groups regarding potential problems with quality, schedule and cost.
• Tracking key company metrics including, but not limited to first pass yield, and product cost objectives to maintain and improve our performance and goals.
• Coordinating and interfacing with internal/external customers and/or suppliers to maintain design integrity, producibility and quality in products.
• Lead Root Cause Corrective Action analyses and projects that ensure long-term solutions to prevent recurring problems.
• Function as the customer/vendor point of contact for all technical electronics production related questions.
• Maintain close contact with Moog Program Management to insure "no surprises" when talking to their customers.
