**Job Description** Because this role involves a combination of collaborative/in-person and independent work, it will take the form of a hybrid work format, with the majority of time spent on site with opportunity for flexibility during the week to work remote. Join a dynamic team that provides mission critical electronic warfare solutions across a vibrant, growing portfolio of opportunities in BAE Systems Electronic Systems (ES) Sector, part of one of the leading aerospace and defense companies. BAE s Electronic Combat Solutions (ECS) business area has an exciting opportunity for a Program Manager I to join the team in the Advanced Electronic Warfare Solutions (AEWS) product line. The Product Line is well positioned for growth in the coming years and is looking for a dynamic individual to join us. We are seeking a Program Manager with demonstrated experience operating within a FAR Part 12 commercial acquisition environment and the ability to support the development and scaling of product-based capabilities. The ideal candidate understands the shift from cost-based execution to product-based delivery, including the implications to pricing, program structure, and customer engagement. This role requires an individual who can operate within and help mature a product-driven environment, where offerings are defined, priced, and delivered as repeatable products rather than one-off program solutions. This role will work closely with a team of Subject Matter Experts and program execution teams as a Product-Based Organization is established, aligning to commercially aligned product strategies. While this role is not a traditional program execution position it will require both strong program execution discipline and the ability to operate effectively in evolving organization structures. This is a transition-critical role. Candidates must be comfortable operating without fully mature processes and must be capable of bringing structure, discipline, and consistency to a developing product environment.
