Eligibility: Applicants must be Australian citizens and be eligible to obtain and maintain an active Australian Government Defence security clearance at the level required for the position.
Join Lockheed Martin Australia's Verification & Validation Centre of Excellence and play a key role in delivering verification expertise across a diverse portfolio of Defence and national security programs.
If you enjoy taking complex technical problems, bringing the right people together and driving them through to a practical outcome, this is a role where you can make a visible difference.
Working closely with Australian Army, Lockheed Martin's Australia and Sikorsky international engineering teams, you'll help turn frontline technical questions into clear, coordinated engineering action in support of the UH-60M Black Hawk capability.
This is more than a request-management role. You'll work across organisational and technical boundaries, helping ensure engineering issues are clearly understood, directed to the right expertise, progressed with appropriate priority and translated into useful outcomes for the customer and program.
We're looking for someone who is comfortable operating in the space between engineering, technical specialists, program teams and the customer.
You don't need to personally have every technical answer. You do need to know how to understand the problem, ask good questions, frame it in the right way to find the right expertise and keep an issue moving until an effective outcome is achieved.
Why this role matters
Engineering reach-back is an important part of sustaining a complex aviation capability, but its value isn't measured by how many requests are processed.
It is measured by whether the right technical problem reaches the right people, whether decisions are made with the information they need, and whether the resulting engineering support helps the customer deliver capability.
You'll have an opportunity to influence how that interface develops as the Australian UH-60M sustainment enterprise continues to mature — including how engineering knowledge is captured, how recurring issues are identified and how Australian and international engineering resources are connected to the needs of the program.
This role will suit someone who likes being at the centre of complex problems without needing to be the centre of attention.
If you're someone who sees a technical problem and instinctively starts working out who needs to be involved, what needs to happen next and how to get it moving, we'd like to hear from you.
