Job Description Qualifications:

This position is part of the rapidly growing EO/IR Mission Systems (EMS) team within BR&T. The EMS team has more than quadrupled in size over the past 18 months due to new contract wins and continues to see increased demand from Boeing’s customers. We’re designing, building, and testing cutting edge sensor systems for airborne and space platforms. Our focus is always on the mission – connecting people through safer air travel and protection of the warfighter from its adversaries. This isn’t your typical Boeing team – we are focused on the entire lifecycle of design: from modeling and simulation of new ideas, through prototype demonstrations, and eventually transitioning to production systems. Our team provides complete engineering solutions to Boeing and its customers, including systems engineering, optics design, mechanical design, algorithms, software development, firmware development, electronics, and advanced system modeling and simulations. If you’re interested in working in a fast-paced environment while taking a design from clean sheet of paper through flight demonstration, ideally with some technology that’s never been flown before, then this is the group for you.

We are seeking a Lead or Senior Systems Engineer in Huntington Beach, CA with experience in the development of mission systems for space and airborne platforms. Responsibilities will include driving the systems engineering from requirements to verification/validation as well as support of project engineering/management activities. Candidates should have experience with all phases of development, including creation and tracking of requirements as well as development and execution of test and verification plans. Candidates should also have project management experience and both the ability to lead a team as well as extensive experience in performing engineering work.

• Leverage advanced Model Based Systems Engineering methods and tools, as necessary, to perform complex analysis and trade studies to evaluate Key Performance Parameters from technology requirements definition, design and manufacturing process definition to product development phase, supporting the technology all the way from concept definition to technology demonstration.

• Provide high impact, creative and innovative solutions to complex technical problems

• Work both independently and as part of a dynamic team environment alongside world-class research scientists and engineers

• Provide critical support and independent review of the work of teammates

Position Responsibilities:

• Lead systems engineering efforts in maturing technologies under development and defining requirements and capabilities associated with a highly complex, industrial, automated thermal test laboratory currently under development.

• Partner with researchers and technology experts in understanding technology development current state and future goals to inform test planning, development, automation, verification and validation efforts

• Identify, coordinate and communicate requirements, functional threads and interfaces for incorporation into system architecture, modeling environment and system physical design.

• Oversee development of Systems Electronics/Device Modeling and integration with larger system(s). 

• Integrate technologies under development with larger system concept of operations and determine impacts to interfaces, integration techniques, manufacturability and integrated system testing.

• Identify, innovate and oversee development and maintenance of new tools and processes to support this work scope

• Lead analysis and performance budget planning and roll-up from individual contributors and subje
