FUSE is building the next generation of autonomous defense technology: intelligent robotic syst

ems and multi-domain platforms that work alongside human operators for surveillance, strike, and mission support

At FUSE, part of Elbit Systems, we combine the speed and innovation culture of a startup with the manufacturing power of a global defense leader. Our teams own the full stack end-to-end, from mechanical design, hardware, and embedded systems to robotics, autonomy, AI, and real-time decision-making

Here, technology goes from concept to operational deployment. Fast. Your work doesn't sit in a backlog - it takes off

We are looking for

We're looking for a Senior Configuration Manager to own the engineering baseline of our autonomous systems - the central authority on product configuration across hardware, software, mechanics, and electronics, ensuring every change is controlled, documented, and traceable

In this role you will

Design and enforce cross-departmental R&D workflows and requirement management processes

Drive process standardization across integrated hardware, software, and systems engineering teams

Lead formal engineering change processes (ECR/ECN/ECO) and run Configuration Control Board (CCB) sessions

Build and maintain product BOMs across all disciplines and control release of approved configurations to production

Define and manage configuration baselines (functional, design, product) throughout the development lifecycle

Synchronize software/firmware versions with hardware releases and ensure correct pairing across system variants

Serve as single source of truth for configuration status across engineering, production, quality, and supply chain

Conduct formal configuration audits (FCA/PCA) and ensure compliance with AS9100 and military standards

Manage PLM/PDM systems as the central repository for drawings, BOMs, documentation, and change history

Bridge gaps between 'as designed' and 'as-built' configurations and maintain traceability for 7-10 year product lifecycles

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Electrical, Mechanical, Industrial, or related field)

5+ years of hands-on experience in configuration management or engineering data management

Minimum of 2 years of experience as a Systems Engineer

Strong working knowledge of PLM/PDM systems (Teamcenter, Windchill, ENOVIA, or similar)

Proven experience with ALM tools (JIRA, Azure DevOps) for complex software version synchronization - A MUST

Deep understanding of formal engineering change processes (ECR/ECO/CCB methodology)

Ability to coordinate across multi-disciplinary teams (hardware, software, mechanical, quality, manufacturing)

High attention to detail and analytical skills for identifying configuration inconsistencies

Proficiency in MS Office and ability to produce clear technical documentation and reports

Experience with AS9100 or military configuration management standards (MIL-STD/MIL-HDBK)

Experience in automating CM workflows and CI/CD pipelines - a strong advantage

This is your chance to work on complex, high-stakes systems and build technology that makes an instant impact

If you're looking to move fast, think big, and shape what comes next, we want you with us
