Job description

VP Production

Boston, Massachusetts

According to John Owen, co-founder of JetBlue and investor at De-Ice, "the best way to save money for an airline is to run a reliable, on-time schedule, and current-state de-icing makes this impossible."

De-Ice is an MIT spin-out that's developed an electric de-icing solution that will solve this problem. This eliminates the need for the aircraft to hold on the ground for 30-45 minutes or more while workers in bucket trucks spray heated toxic fluids on the aircraft.

If you're passionate about aviation, engineering, and solving difficult problems join our team to take a big step towards making flying sustainable for everyone.

Responsibilities

The VP Production will be instrumental in ensuring De-Ice delivers its product on-spec and on-time. They will be responsible for optimizing and managing De-Ice's production, supply chain, and quality process infrastructure.

The ideal candidate will have had a leadership role in developing, certifying, and producing sub-systems for commercial or military aircraft.

  • Working with the current team, top leadership, and advisors to develop the production plan, timeline and resources to meet commercial targets
  • Lead the supplier optimization process including generating competitive proposals, supplier selection, contract development and requirements integration
  • Manage the company's supply chain to ensure on-time, on-budget delivery performance from suppliers and contract manufacturers
  • Implement and enforce a requirements management and conformity process utilizing industry standard processes and software (e.g. DOORS) that are compatible with suppliers
  • Lead the implementation of a cost and time effective PLM or equivalent system to ensure FAA compliance with revision control and requirements conformity
  • Recruit, mentor, and guide a team of highly skilled engineers for manufacturing and production in a structured aerospace environment
