Who We Are:
Quest Global delivers world-class end-to-end engineering solutions by leveraging our deep industry knowledge and digital expertise. By bringing together technologies and industries, alongside the contributions of diverse individuals and their areas of expertise, we can solve problems better, faster. This multi-dimensional approach enables us to solve the most critical and large-scale challenges across the aerospace & defense, automotive, energy, hi-tech, healthcare, medical devices, rail and semiconductor industries.
We are looking for humble geniuses, who believe that engineering has the potential to make the impossible possible; innovators, who are not only inspired by technology and innovation, but also perpetually driven to design, develop, and test as a trusted partner for Fortune 500 customers. As a team of remarkably diverse engineers, we recognize that what we are really engineering is a brighter future for us all. If you want to contribute to meaningful work and be part of an organization that truly believes when you win, we all win, and when you fail, we all learn, then we’re eager to hear from you.
The achievers and courageous challenge-crushers we seek, have the following characteristics and skills:
What You Will Do:
-
Receive and triage supplier commerciality assertions; validate submission completeness against FAR 2.101 criteria before work begins
-
Drive supplier interface — request salient characteristic data, commercial invoices, catalog/price lists, and sales history; escalate and track non-responsive suppliers against cycle-time commitments
-
Conduct independent market research to establish that a customary commercial market exists — commercial offerings, platform usage, comparable sources inside and outside the customer's supply base
-
Build the price analysis: adjust the similar-item sales history via price walk for form/fit/function differences, and document the basis for fair and reasonable pricing
-
Assemble the complete determination package — technical assessment, market evidence, price justification, and narrative — to customer format and audit standard
-
Maintain traceability and audit-ready documentation sufficient to withstand DCMA/DCAA review and customer internal audit
-
Report backlog status, cycle time, and supplier responsiveness metrics; flag assertions likely to fail early rather than late
What You Will Bring:
-
5+ years in government contracts, subcontract administration, procurement compliance, or price/cost analysis in aerospace & defense
-
Working knowledge of FAR Part 12, FAR Part 15, FAR 2.101 commercial product/service definitions, TINA thresholds, and DFARS 212 commerciality determination requirements
-
Demonstrated experience with "of a type" / similar-to commerciality assertions and supporting evidence packages
-
Price analysis skills — comparability adjustments, sales history normalization, market-based price reasonableness
-
Direct supplier-facing experience; able to push a reluctant supplier for data without damaging the relationship
-
Strong technical writing; the narrative is the deliverable
-
U.S. person status; ability to obtain access to export-controlled data
Pay Range: $100,000 - $125,000 per year
