Fleet Commander – Remote Pilot in Command

Data Engineer

• Own the structure, standards, permissions, and daily operation of Zipline's managed Altium component library
• Create, review, and release production-quality schematic symbols, PCB footprints, pad stacks, simulation models, and 3D component models
• Verify component models against manufacturer documentation, including pinout, polarity, package dimensions, land pattern, solder-mask and paste definitions, assembly layers, and 3D alignment
• Define standards for component templates, required parameters, naming, descriptions, revision schemes, lifecycle states, and review criteria
• Audit and clean up existing library data, resolving duplicates, obsolete records, missing models, inconsistent parameters, and conflicting part numbers while preserving released-design traceability
• Own the new-part request process from intake through review, internal part-number assignment, library creation, approval, release, and downstream synchronization
• Review requested parts for duplicates, preferred alternatives, sourcing risk, lifecycle status, compliance requirements, and design suitability
• Define a scalable part-number and classification model for electrical parts, PCBAs, cables, harnesses, mechanical parts, assemblies, and related hardware
• Establish source-of-truth rules across Altium, PLM, ERP, procurement, manufacturing, and service systems
• Improve EBOM quality so released BOM lines map to valid internal part numbers, manufacturer records, lifecycle states, revisions, and owners
• Build scripts, queries, dashboards, APIs, or validation checks for library cleanup, duplicate detection, metadata quality, BOM comparison, lifecycle updates, and PLM or ERP synchronization
• Train and support engineers and PCB designers on component selection, part requests, EBOM creation, lifecycle usage, and release expectations
