The Senior Supply Chain Engineer serves as the technical backbone of the growth and bid process. This role owns bill of materials (BOM) costing, runs comparative analysis across suppliers and build approaches, and serves as the technical point of contact for post-award execution. The engineer will read engineering drawings, interpret requirements, build out BOMs, and produce CAD as needed to support sourcing and cost decisions.
Key responsibilities include:
- Owning BOM development and costing for incoming opportunities, breaking down drawings and requirements into complete, accurate BOMs
- Building and refining should-cost models and pricing inputs to support competitive, margin-accurate bids
- Running comparative analysis across suppliers, materials, processes, and build approaches to identify lowest-risk, lowest-cost sourcing and build paths
- Serving as technical point of contact for post-award execution, supporting sourcing decisions, engineering change evaluations, and supplier quality resolution
- Reading and interpreting engineering drawings, GD&T, and military and aerospace specifications to assess sourcing options
- Producing CAD as needed to support costing, feasibility, and technical analysis
- Making go/no-go recommendations based on supply chain feasibility, capacity, risk, and strategic fit
- Collaborating with factory engineering, manufacturing, and procurement teams to validate sourcing strategies and supplier requirements

- Building and maintaining working knowledge of Amca factory and supplier capabilities, including equipment, certifications, materials expertise, and capacity constraints
- Identifying supply chain gaps and recommending supplier partnerships or capital investments
- Staying current on relevant industry standards (AS9100, NADCAP, MIL-SPEC), manufacturing technology, and DLA procurement policy
The role requires a Bachelor's degree in supply chain engineering, manufacturing engineering, industrial engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, or related technical discipline, plus 3+ years of full-time technical experience in supply chain, manufacturing, or related field.
