Entry Level Structure & Payload Design Engineer (Dimensional Engineer)

Company:

The Boeing Company

The Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) team is seeking an Entry Level Structure & Payload Design Engineer (Dimensional Engineer) located in Hazelwood, MO.

As part of our growing organization, you will be surrounded by a passionate leadership team dedicated to attracting and developing top talent for critical national defense missions. With our strong connection to the Department of Defense, we deliver unparalleled capability through our exceptional team.

At Boeing, our engineers are the visionaries who shape the future of aerospace. Join us and unleash your expertise to create next-generation capabilities for incredible aerospace platforms. This is your chance to make a significant impact by contributing to a wide range of current and evolutionary aircraft and weapons systems across various divisions/business units, including:

  • Air Dominance (Phantom Works, F-15, F/A-18, MQ-25A, T-7A, and future franchise programs)

  • Mobility, Surveillance, & Bombers (777X)

  • Space Intelligence & Weapons Systems (Harpoon, JDAM, SDB, SLAM-ER)

  • Boeing Global Services businesses

Dimensional Engineering is used to identify requirements and objectives that are dimensional in nature, decompose those requirements and objectives to measurements, use variation analysis tools to link measurements to detail part feature variation. Requirements are typically system level and customer defined. Objectives are typically build objectives and identified by production engineering to reduce product cost and increase product quality. In this role the candidate will apply the dimensional engineering process on programs and use variation

analysis tools. Additionally in this role the candidate will help develop, maintain, and train dimensional engineering processes, tool use, and tolerance application (GD&T).

Position Responsibilities:

  • Perform variation analysis using specialized software to determine effects of part tolerances, tool tolerances, locating methods and assembly sequence

  • Assist in selecting assembly and detail part datums and ensure datums are properly established by tooling or manufacturing process

  • Assist in determining appropriate tolerance controls and calculating tolerance values that will achieve functional requirements and ease of assembly. Comply with the appropriate GD&T standards

  • Assist in evaluating whether dimensional requirements are within manufacturing and assembly process capability

  • Assist in the development of product dimensional requirements and document team decisions regarding dimensional control

  • Assist the teams in identification of key characteristics and in the development of control plans for the key characteristics

  • Review process control plans, quality plans and inspection plans for appropriate levels of tolerance value verification

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

This position requires the ability to obtain US Secret Security Clearance for which the US Government requires US Citizenship as a condition of employment. An interim and/or final U.S. Secret Clearance Post-Start is required.
