The Boeing Company

The Boeing Company is looking for an Experienced Software Engineer - Simulation to join the Battlespace Simulation Management team located in Hazelwood, 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. Developers on our team are responsible for all phases of the software lifecycle, including architecture, design, implementation and test.

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 groundbreaking technology to maintenance of legacy software baselines. The successful candidate will need to be comfortable working in a self-directed fast-paced environment. Adaptability, the ability to work closely with others and an open mind are essential attributes of team members. A background in any or all of the following is desired: military aircraft, weapons, simulation, training systems.

Position Responsibilities:
•    Partners with stakeholders to review and identify simulation requirements and dynamics of the systems being simulated.
•    Performs design, modeling, simulation, testing, and analysis to assess and optimize overall system performance and capabilities.
•    Performs data collection and processing for use in simulations.
•    Validates, verifies, and refines simulation software code, models, simulations, test procedures and test environments, executing test procedures and documenting test results and models against real-world data, test data, benchmarks, or other similar models.
•    Documents and maintains technical code, algorithms, specifications and descriptions of simulation models.
•    Partners with cross functional engineering teams to enable integration of simulation software with hardware devices and systems.
•    Implements current and emerging technologies, tools, frameworks, and methods in the software engineering simulation environment.
•    Modernizes, migrates, sustains, and updates simulation software to adapt legacy systems to new operating systems.
•    Performs simulation software project management functions.

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

Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):

•    5+ years of experience in programming in C/C++
•    5+ years of experience in Object Oriented Design and Programming
•    5+ years of experience with Scaled Agile Framework enterprise (SAFe) or Agile
