F-22 Pilot Training Lead Software Engineer–Simulation

F-22 Pilot Training Lead Software Engineer–Simulation

Company:

The Boeing Company

The Boeing Company is currently seeking a F-22 Pilot Training Lead Software Engineer to join the Vehicle Simulation Team located in Berkeley, MO. This position will focus on supporting the Boeing Global Services business organization.

The F-22 Vehicle Simulation Team within BGS Software Engineering is responsible for developing products directly employed in the training of our nation’s fighter pilots:

    • F-22 Pilot Training Avionics Simulation (PTAS)

    • F-22 Advanced Simulation Toolset (FAST) supporting the Boeing Virtual Warfare Center (VWC)

These simulations support the employment and training of next generation avionics and sensor systems for the F-22 Raptor.

This is an exciting opportunity that will allow you to help design and plan the long-term roadmap of the Vehicle Simulation team as a Technical Architect and Lead Software Engineer.  In this role you will interact with users to refine requirements and timelines; work with management and other stakeholders to assess prioritization of feature enhancements; facilitate technical design and peer code reviews; set and refine coding standards; provide mentoring to the software teams; and tackle complex coding tasks. 

F-22 Vehicle Simulation Software Engineers test their changes daily in several different simulation environments including the desktop-based Development Test Environment (DTE) and Full Mission Trainer (FMT) cockpit used in conjunction with the Constant Resolution Visual System (CRVS) driving 360 degrees of immersive, visual environment.

Position Responsibilities:

We work in a casual but professional environment with multi-disciplined teams of engineers that take pride in developing, integrating, testing and delivering innovative solutions. There is long-term potential for career growth into technical leadership or management positions and we value the curiosity, tenacity and imagination our engineers bring to our teams each day.

To be considered for this position you will be required to complete a technical assessment as part of the selection process.  Failure to complete the assessment will remove you from consideration.
