Experienced Software Engineer

Company:

The Boeing Company

The Boeing Company is seeking highly motivated Experienced Software Engineers to become part of the Training Systems - Battlespace Simulation Management team in Berkely, MO. This position will focus on supporting the Boeing Global Services (BGS) Software Engineering organization.

Are you ready to build the future? Build your career by helping us build the next generation of flight simulators to train our nation’s military pilots. Develop subsystems for Boeing Flight Trainers such as the Instructor/Operator Station, Brief/Debrief Station, Synthetic Environments, and core building block technologies used for all our flight trainers (graphics, video, networking, mission planning, exercise management & control).

BSM is responsible for the design, development, manufacture, and maintenance of training devices for a wide variety of commercial and military aircraft - everything from F-15 fighter jets to Apache attack helicopters, and even NASA's Starliner spacecraft. Software engineers on our team are responsible for all phases of the software lifecycle, including architecture, design, implementation and test. They are also directly involved in planning their own work, as part of the agile methodology, with a focus on technical excellence.

The BSM team is a large software development team comprised of several smaller agile teams, some with specialized skills. Our backlog includes everything from new feature development using cutting-edge technology to maintenance of legacy software baselines. The successful candidate will need to be comfortable working in an often fast-paced environment.  As an experienced member of the team, you will be supporting the entire product development life cycle within BSM.

Position Responsibilities
•    Design and Development: Contribute to the design, architecture, and development of simulation models, visualizations, virtual environments/platforms, and frameworks.
•    Stakeholder Collaboration: Partner with stakeholders to review and identify simulation requirements and understand the dynamics of the systems being simulated.
•    Validation and Verification: Conduct validation, verification, and refinement of simulation software code, models, simulations, and test procedures. Execute test procedures, document test results, and model against real-world data, benchmarks, or similar models.
•    Technical Documentation: Maintain comprehensive documentation of technical code, algorithms, specifications, and descriptions of simulation models.
•    Cross-Functional Integration: Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to integrate simulation software with hardware devices and systems.
•    Technology Implementation: Implement current and emerging technologies, tools, frameworks, and methods within the software engineering simulation environment.
•    Project Management: Assist in simulation software project management functions, ensuring timely delivery and adherence to project goals.
•    Peer Reviews: Participate in design and implementation peer reviews to ensure code quality and share best practices.
•    Continuous Improvement: Promote continuous improvement by proposing ideas for process enhancements, tool upgrades, and automation improvements.
•    Proposal Support: Support proposal development and lead engineering execution by identifying necessary activities, resources, and tasks to fulfill the work statement.
•    Mentor junior engineers and foster a culture of innovation within the team.

This position is expected to be 100% onsite. The selected candidate will be required to work onsite at one of the listed location options.
