Company Overview

Red 6 is an innovative Augmented Reality (AR) technology startup leading the way in synthetic air combat training. Our primary technology, supporting our ATARS product, enables pilots to simulate the cognitive challenges of flying while accessing realistic, scalable training in dynamic outdoor environments.

Role Summary

As the Document Control Technical Writer, you will own the creation, release, governance, and continuous improvement of engineering and quality documentation that enables reliable build, test, and delivery of Red 6 hardware. You'll author and maintain assembly and test procedures, ensure Manufacturing Execution System (MES) content is accurate and usable on the floor, and manage QMS artifacts such as WIs, CARs / SCARs, calibration and preventive maintenance records, and KPI dashboards. You'll be the connective tissue between Engineering, Manufacturing, Test, Supply Chain, and Quality.

What You'll Do

Engineering & Manufacturing Documentation

  • Author, edit, and version control assembly procedures, test procedures, acceptance test plans (ATPs), travelers, and shop aids from engineering BOMs, drawings, and schematics.
  • Establish clear illustrations, annotated photos, and step sequencing to drive repeatable build quality and cycletime reduction.
  • Partner with Manufacturing / Test Engineers to validate procedures during pilots and NPI builds; capture lessons learned and update revisions rapidly.

MES Configuration & Floor Enablement

  • Build and maintain MES routes / operations, data collection forms, e-signatures, defect codes, rework / hold steps, and traceability fields to ISA95 "Level 3" practices (i.e., the layer between ERP and process control).
  • Ensure MES work instructions reflect the latest controlled documents and that operators have point-of-use content (barcodes / links, device history records, serial / lot capture).
  • Partner with IT / OT to triage MES issues and improve usability; champion operator feedback loops.
  • Align MES content and terminology to the MESA model for operations management, where practical.
  • QMS Documentation & Compliance

  • Create and maintain Work Instructions (WIs), Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), forms, and process maps consistent with ISO 9001 / AS9100D practices.
  • Administer Corrective Action Requests (CARs) and Supplier CARs (SCARs) : log issues, coordinate 5Why / 8D, track actions to closure, and verify effectiveness.
  • Maintain calibration and preventive maintenance records, manage recall schedules, and document out-of-tolerance investigations.
  • Support internal audits, supplier audits, and external audits; prepare objective evidence and training records.
  • Document Control & Governance

  • Own the document lifecycle—numbering, metadata, drafting, review / approval workflows, release, change control (ECO / MCO), and archival—in SharePoint (and related PLM / eQMS / ERP tools as applicable).
  • Build intuitive SharePoint libraries with security, versioning, and search optimized via content types and required metadata.
  • Metrics & Continuous Improvement

  • Design and publish KPI dashboards in Power BI (e.g., FPY, DPPM, on-time build, CAR closure lead time, rework rates, downtime drivers, calibration recall compliance).
  • Use data to prioritize improvements, simplify instructions, and reduce variability; present findings to Operations leadership.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Facilitate doc reviews with Engineering, Manufacturing, Test, Quality, and Supply Chain; drive to consensus and timely release.
  • Train operators and reviewers on document use, MES workflows, and change control etiquette.
  • Minimum Qualifications

  • 3+ years in document control, technical writing, or manufacturing engineering within aerospace, defense, electronics, optics, or other high-reliability hardware manufacturing.
  • Demonstrated experience authoring assembly and test procedures from engineering inputs (drawings, schematics, BOMs); proficient with revision control and redlines.
  • Hands-on experience in configuring or operating MES content (routes / operations, data capture, e-signatures, work instructions) and understanding of ISA95 / MESA concepts.
  • Solid familiarity with ISO 9001 / AS9100 environments and core QMS processes (WIs / SOPs, CAR / SCAR, calibration, PM, audits).
  • Proficiency with SharePoint for controlled documents and Power BI for dashboards.
  • Able to read engineering drawings (including basic GD&T), interpret electrical / mechanical BOMs, and navigate ERP / PLM records.
  • Exceptional writing and information design skills; you simplify complex steps and make them unambiguous at the point of use.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience supporting NPI and design for manufacture / test (DFM / DFT) in faster-iterating hardware programs.
  • Internal auditor training (ISO 9001 / AS9100) and practical 8D / 5Why / DOE toolkit.
  • Familiarity with aerospace product compliance, configuration management, and traceability.
  • Exposure to AR / VR hardware, optics, headworn devices, or flight-qualified electronics is a plus (aligned with Red 6's mission and products such as ATARS / ARCADE).
  • Tools You'll Use

  • SharePoint (document control, workflows), Power BI (KPI dashboards), MES (vendor / tooling varies), ERP / PLM (e.g., BOMs, routings), and standard authoring tools (Office, image / markup).
  • Full-Time Employee Benefits

  • Healthcare, Dental, and Vision (100% coverage for Employees)
  • Paid time off, including vacation, sick, paid holidays, and parental leave
  • Short and Long-Term Disability
  • Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
  • 401(k) Retirement Plan
  • Voluntary Worksite Benefits (Accident, Critical Illness, and Hospital Indemnity)
  • Equal Opportunity Employer

    Red Six Aerospace, Inc, is an Equal Opportunity Employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
