United States onlyWe are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for professionals experienced in aerospace and defense programs, regulated manufacturing, systems engineering, supply chain, quality assurance, mission assurance, and structured technical documentation workflows.
This role supports current and upcoming remote consulting opportunities focused on structured aerospace and defense workflow review, program documentation, engineering change assessment, verification and validation materials, supplier qualification review, risk tracking, and high-quality project execution. Selected professionals will apply their A&D expertise to review realistic program scenarios, evaluate technical and compliance requirements, prepare structured written outputs, and support accurate, evidence-based aerospace and defense workflow tasks.
Key Responsibilities
Professionals in this role may contribute to:
Program Management & Contract Documentation Review
- Review aerospace and defense scenarios involving program review decks, CDRLs, SOWs, integrated master schedules, earned value materials, risk registers, and contract deliverables
- Evaluate program documentation against source materials, delivery requirements, stakeholder expectations, and defined review criteria
- Support structured review of DoD, NASA, prime contractor, supplier, or federally funded R&D program workflows
- Identify missing information, documentation gaps, schedule issues, risk items, and expected program review outcomes
Engineering, Manufacturing & V&V Support
- Review technical scenarios involving aerospace design, manufacturing engineering, systems engineering, verification and validation plans, integrated test materials, and engineering change proposals
- Evaluate engineering and manufacturing materials against documented requirements, technical standards, test criteria, and expected outcomes
- Support structured review of materials connected to ANSYS Fluent, STAR-CCM+, Siemens Opcenter, Rockwell FactoryTalk, Jira, Confluence, or similar technical systems
- Prepare clear written explanations for aerospace and defense workflow decisions based on source materials and verifiable criteria
Quality, Mission Assurance & Supplier Workflow Review
- Review quality and mission assurance scenarios involving AS9100, NADCAP, supplier qualification packages, compliance records, inspection documentation, and regulated supply chain workflows
- Evaluate supplier and quality materials against DFARS, ITAR, CMMC, AS9100, mission assurance expectations, and documented process requirements
- Support structured review of supply chain records, supplier qualification files, quality documentation, V&V materials, and risk management artifacts
- Maintain accuracy, consistency, and professional judgment across submitted work
