Shield AI is a venture-backed defense-tech company with the mission of protecting service members and civilians with intelligent systems.

Follow Shield AI on LinkedIn, X, Instagram, and YouTube. Job Description: The Obsolescence and Lifecycle Management Management Lead is a senior individual contributor responsible for owning the V-BAT sustainment strategy for parts, suppliers, components, assemblies, and subsystems that are becoming unavailable, unsupported, high-risk, cost-prohibitive, or difficult to sustain. This role drives the operating mechanism for identifying obsolescence risk early, assessing impact to production and fielded aircraft, and coordinating mitigation plans before part shortages, supplier changes, or component end-of-life issues affect V-BAT readiness, repair capability, customer support, or long-term sustainment. The Obsolescence and Lifecycle Management Management Lead partners closely with Supply Chain, Sustainment Engineering, Product Engineering, Configuration Management, Quality, Manufacturing, Finance, Fleet Support, and Operations to ensure lifecycle risks are visible, prioritized, and actively managed. This role is accountable for translating supplier and part availability risks into clear mitigation plans, business decisions, engineering actions, and sustainment priorities.
