About Revolution Space
At Revolution Space we're building advanced space systems for the 21st century. Every employee at Revolution Space works on projects that are critical to our company’s future by ensuring our products work on orbit every time.
Position Summary:
Revolution Space is looking for a dynamic and growth-oriented Senior Configuration Management Analyst who will be responsible for owning the integrity of our product data and the configuration change control process as we design, build, and fly hardware. You’ll be the backbone of how engineering configuration changes flow from design to production, administering our Arena PLM system by enforcing configuration control disciplines. To ensure every team from engineering to manufacturing to quality is working from the same source of truth.
This role is ideal for someone who is detail-obsessed, comfortable working across engineering, supply chain, manufacturing and quality, and who takes pride in a clean, audit-ready bill of materials and coordinating engineering review board and configuration control board meetings.
The position is: Remote with a 25% travel requirement.
Responsibilities:
Own configuration control in Arena PLM; administer item masters, BOMs, revisions, lifecycle phases, and change objects (ECOs/ECRs/deviations) to ensure accuracy and traceability across product lifecycles
Manage the document change process; process, route, and track engineering change requests/orders through review and approval, coordinating with engineering, manufacturing, quality, and supply chain stakeholders
Maintain data integrity; audit part numbers, revisions, and BOM structures for accuracy, consistency, and completeness; resolve discrepancies before they become build or quality issues
Support the Engineering Review Board (ERB) and Configuration Control Board (CCB) meetings; prepare document packages, track action items, publish meeting minutes, and maintain change log.
Enforce configuration management best practices; develop and maintain CM procedures, work instructions, and naming/numbering conventions aligned with industry standards (e.g., AS9100)
Enable traceability; support as-designed, as-built, and as-flown configuration baselines, especially for flight and safety-critical hardware
Partner cross functionally; train and support engineers, buyers, and production staff on Arena workflows and CM processes; act as the go-to resource for PLM questions
Support audits; prepare configuration and change records for internal audits, customer reviews, and regulatory/compliance inspections
Required Qualifications
5+ years of experience in configuration management, engineering data management, or a related PLM/document control role
Bachelors degree in engineering, technical discipline, or equivalent
Hands-on experience administering Arena PLM with willingness to become an Arena power user quickly
Solid understanding of configuration management principles: BOM structures, revision control, change control processes, and lifecycle management
Familiarity with CM standards and practices
Strong attention to detail and comfort working with data at scale
Ability to communicate clearly across technical and non-technical stakeholders, and to hold the line on process discipline without becoming a bottleneck Describe the required experience and attributes of the ideal candidate
Preferred Qualifications
Hardware/aerospace startup environment strongly preferred
Experience with data migrations or system implementations (e.g., standing up or reconfiguring PLM system)
Exposure to ERP/MRP systems and how they interfere with PLM
Familiarity with drawing/model-based definition practices
Prior experience in satellite, launch vehicle, or space hardware programs
Benefits
Paid holidays, sick time and unmetered vacation
Excellent health and dental plans with 80% employer contribution
4% company matching 401k plan with immediate vesting
Life insurance
Voluntary Long term / Short term disability
