Product Configuration Manager

Actalent
Austin, TX Contractor
POSTED ON 12/27/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 1/27/2026

We’re hiring a Configuration Manager to lead product definition, audit compliance, and part traceability across complex engineering programs. If you’re passionate about structured data, version control, and making sure every part has a purpose and a paper trail—this is your kind of role.

You’ll be the central authority on how parts, subassemblies, and platforms are reused, revised, and controlled. This isn’t a tooling-heavy position—it’s about owning the product structure, enforcing standards, and keeping everything audit-ready across engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing teams.

What You’ll Do

  • Maintain structured relationships between parts, subassemblies, and top-level platforms
  • Own the item master for designed and procured parts across multiple programs
  • Ensure all product data is version-controlled, baselined, and fully traceable
  • Govern how items are reused or revised across configurations
  • Validate MBOM alignment with product configuration baselines
  • Oversee configuration changes in line with EIA-649, ASME Y14.5, ISO 9001, and internal standards
  • Coordinate release schedules to avoid version conflicts and divergence
  • Maintain digital records to support audit readiness and compliance
  • Collaborate with PLM and CAD teams to ensure systems support configuration governance

What You Bring

  • 5 years in configuration management or product data governance
  • Deep understanding of product structure, interchangeability, and configuration rules
  • Experience with engineering change control, drawing versioning, and part release workflows
  • Familiarity with standards like EIA-649, ASME Y14.5, ISO 9001, or MIL-STD equivalents
  • Hands-on experience with PLM/PDM systems (Teamcenter preferred)
  • Comfortable navigating engineering and manufacturing BOMs
  • Strong documentation, audit prep, and version traceability skills
  • Confidence enforcing standards across engineering, supply chain, and program teams

Why You’ll Love It Here

  • 100% paid medical for employees, 80% for dependents
  • Dental, vision, life, and disability insurance
  • Generous PTO, paid holidays, and parental leave
  • Competitive salary performance bonuses
  • 401(k) plan stock options
  • Free lunch and unlimited snacks/drinks in-office

If you’re ready to bring structure, clarity, and compliance to high-impact engineering programs, we’d love to hear from you. Apply now or reach out to learn more!
