Industrial Engineer
The incumbent applies experience and comprehensive knowledge of Industrial Engineering principles, theories, and concepts applicable to his/her area of responsibility, as well as an understanding of new technologies and methodologies, to solve complex problems and to develop improved technical processes for the organization. In this role, the incumbent serves as a lead engineer for the system oversight division applying broad technical and team skills to lead design and manufacturing system oversight activities by applying systems thinking principles. As a lead engineer, the incumbent may oversee and coordinate efforts of other engineering and quality staff, including both internal and external stakeholders.As an Industrial Engineer, the incumbent oversees requirements definition of specific processes based on application of basic engineering principles, theories and techniques; designs or selects system elements to meet system requirements and, evaluates merits of system design with engineers and manufacturing technicians skilled in core disciplines. As a lead engineer, the incumbent provides directions and guidance in the form of clear objectives, alternative approaches and solutions to engineering and manufacturing personnel, both within the FAA and within the Organization Designation Authorization (ODA) and manufacturing quality organizations. Goals and objectives are developed collaboratively across system interface points and with respective stakeholders. Defines, organizes, and assigns resources to accomplish organizational objectives. Allocates resources to accomplish large work activities within established schedules. Plans and meets both program milestones and commitments.The incumbent possesses strong communication skills to inform and influence support personnel, peers, and executives across highly complex organizational systems by using charts, diagrams and reports to express progress measured against specific plans. The incumbent builds risk management into system definition and implementation with respect to FAA involvement in all areas of the aviation industry, regulatory requirements, and procedural standards or agreements.Broad policies and objectives provide general guidance for addressing issues, but allow considerable discretion to develop new and innovative approaches. Provides policy guidance and instruction to others, both internally and externally. Provides guidance to lower-level staff to solve difficult technical issues. Resolves all but unique technical problems without the intervention of management or other experienced engineer. Works with senior management to solve problems.The incumbent performs work activities with minimal direction of a manager. The work is reviewed rarely, typically through status reports and at project completion, to ensure technical compliance and alignment with the requirements of the project or other work activity. The project/program typically impact directly on the objectives of one or more major subdivisions, LOB's/SO's and may impact on the objectives of the FAA.
