Configuration and Change Control Manager (R5300)

Own and maintain the V-BAT fielded and as-maintained configuration baseline for aircraft, payloads, software, ground equipment, support equipment, and related sustainment assets.

Track aircraft serial numbers, hardware revisions, software versions, payload configurations, ground system configurations, fielded modifications, retrofit status, and customer-specific baselines.

Manage the change control process for fielded V-BAT systems, ensuring approved changes are controlled, traceable, and applied to the correct aircraft, customers, and configurations.

Support Engineering Change Requests, Engineering Change Orders, change impact assessments, release readiness reviews, retrofit plans, and service action planning.

Ensure fielded fixes, retrofits, software updates, hardware changes, payload changes, and service actions are tied to the correct serial numbers, configurations, customers, and effectivity ranges.

Maintain configuration records for deployed aircraft, spares, payloads, ground equipment, support equipment, and field-modified assets.

Partner with Fleet Support, Sustainment Engineering, Product Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain, Customer Success, Operations, and Configuration Management to control changes across the V-BAT fleet.

Support release readiness reviews for software, hardware, payload, ground system, maintenance, and support equipment updates.

Ensure changes are documented, approved, communicated, implemented, and traceable from engineering approval through field deployment.

Maintain a clear view of which customers, aircraft, payloads, ground systems, spares, and support equipment are affected by each change.

Define and maintain change effectivity logic, including serial number applicability, build applicability, customer applicability, configuration applicability, and retrofit applicability.

Coordinate with Product Engineering and Sustainment Engineering to understand technical change intent, required implementation steps, and field impact.

Coordinate with Fleet Support and Customer Success to ensure field teams understand which updates, inspections, retrofits, or service actions apply to each customer asset.

Coordinate with Manufacturing, Quality, and Supply Chain to ensure production records, nonconformance records, part revisions, supplier changes, and field configurations remain aligned.

Identify configuration gaps, data inconsistencies, undocumented modifications, incomplete retrofit records, and risks to fielded fleet traceability.

Escalate configuration risks that could affect fleet readiness, customer support, release execution, repair decisions, or technical troubleshooting.

Support audits, reviews, and investigations requiring accurate configuration history, change history, serial number traceability, or fielded asset applicability.

Improve configuration management processes, change control mechanisms, release tracking, field modification tracking, and reporting tools as the sustainment function scales.

Provide leadership updates on configuration health, change control status, open risks, affected assets, and field deployment progress.
