We are Boeing Research & Technology (BR&T): Boeing's global research and development team creating and implementing innovative technologies that make the impossible possible and enabling the future of aerospace.  We are engineers and technicians, skilled scientists and bold innovators; Join us and put your passion, determination, and skill to work building the future!

#TheFutureIsBuiltHere #ChangeTheWorld

The Boeing Company is seeking an experienced, highly skilled professional to become a member of the Boeing Digital Avionics team.  We are rapidly expanding our Digital Avionics development team consisting of engineers passionate in developing trusted, high assurance FPGA devices for advance Commercial and Military Avionics Systems.  Selected candidates will have the opportunity to choose from one of our three Boeing AvionX locations: Phoenix Arizona area (Mesa), Dallas Texas area (Plano), or St Louis Missouri area (Hazelwood).

We are seeking Mid-Level, Lead or Senior Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) Project Engineers who are ambitious and will thrive in an advance technology development environment. You will help develop early adopter technology rapidly for insertion in our ruggedized and robust Avionics solutions. Our hands-on FPGA project engineers drive all FPGA development execution activities by utilizing their FPGA technical knowledge, foresight, analytical, project management, and communication skills in executing their role in these high career profile technical leadership roles. You will leverage your skills and capabilities in all areas of the development lifecycle to include program bid and proposals, IRAD technology development, and FPGA flight hardware development and productization.

The work we do enables the missions and needs of our military and commercial customers. Our team of engineers leverage leading-edge technology and work with world-class partners to develop solutions using some of the most advance SoCs in the world.  We develop robust, high-performance custom digital processing technologies to enable high-integrity, low SWAP-C Avionics.  We utilize the latest digital IC development processes with industry-best tools to produce the most trusted and cyber secure digital solutions for our Avionics customers.

Our focused Avionics center of excellence development group produces advance digital solutions for multiple manned and unmanned aircraft. Our extensive portfolio of products provides opportunities to learn and grow with exposure to the breadth of the Boeing Avionics products.

As an FPGA Engineer on the Boeing AvionX team, you will manage and coordinate a team developing state-of-the-art digital ICs/SoCs to support the most critical programs across the Boeing Commercial and Defense enterprise.  We also collaborate with other electronics groups across the company and around the world.
