BoeingAbout the role
Company:
The Boeing CompanyThe Boeing PAC-3 program is seeking an Associate or Experienced Systems Engineer to join our Processor Integrated Product Team (IPT). As a Systems Engineer for the Processor IPT, you will work closely with a multidisciplinary team of engineers to ensure the successful design and manufacturing of the Processor to meet the performance, reliability, and safety requirements of the seeker system. Systems Engineers are responsible for development and adherence of the Processor requirements and the interfaces of the Processor with the rest of the Seeker system.
The Boeing PAC-3 program is producing seekers everyday as well as developing a new design of the seeker and looking for a highly skilled and experienced Lead Systems Engineer for our Processor IPT! This position is located at the Boeing Jetplex facility in Huntsville, AL
Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) Patriot Advanced Capability (PAC-3) program is an air-defense missile system designed to counter tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and advanced aircraft where Boeing is the original engineering manufacturer of the seeker. Boeing’s seekers provide active data to the PAC-3 missile which enables it to acquire, intercept and destroy threats using hit-to-kill technology. The PAC-3 Seeker team is a cross functional, highly skilled, motivated group embracing the beliefs that focused safety, execution, LEAN manufacturing and business practices will secure our future and well-being, driving our product to be the seeker of choice for the PAC-3 program and future generations of weapon systems.
Position Responsibilities:
Develop and ensure compliance with system requirements and specifications of the design and development of the Processor subsystem for the PAC-3 missile seeker
Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including hardware engineers, software engineers, and signal processing experts, to ensure seamless integration of the digital processor assembly with the overall missile seeker system
Define and document the Processor an associated test equipment architecture, interfaces, and operational characteristics
Ensure compliance with relevant industry standards, regulations, and safety guidelines in the design and implementation of the Digital Processor
Support test plans and procedure development to verify the functionality and performance of the Processor subsystem
Support the troubleshooting and resolution of any technical issues or anomalies related to the Processor during development, integration, manufacturing, and testing phases
Support the integration and testing of the digital processor assembly within the missile seeker system, troubleshooting any issues that arise and implementing necessary design modifications
Stay updated with the latest advancements in Processor technologies, industry trends, and best practices, and apply this knowledge to enhance the performance and capabilities of our missile seeker system
