The Boeing Company is seeking a Metrology Test & Evaluation Engineer to join Boeing Test & Evaluation (BT&E) in the Metrology & Test Equipment Services (MATES) organization in Seattle, WA. You will be part of a geographically distributed metrology-engineering team that delivers measurement solutions for advanced manufacturing, production, R&D, and flight-test activities across Boeing.

This role supports MATES engineering functions and associated calibration labs in the Puget Sound region. You will collaborate with factory teams, quality organizations, enterprise metrology partners, and external suppliers to ensure Measurement & Test Equipment (M&TE) is capable, traceable, and available when needed.

About MATES

MATES provides enterprise calibration and test-asset services, including:

• Calibration and certification of M&TE

• Measurement-systems engineering and uncertainty analysis

• Tool sourcing, maintenance, and lifecycle management

• Calibration-process automation and software integration

BT&E is currently hiring for a broad range of experience levels including Experienced and Senior level Metrology Test & Evaluation Engineers.

Position Responsibilities Include:

• Serve as the engineering focal for calibration-related activities across production, labs, quality, and engineering

• Design, evaluate, and integrate calibration system hardware, software, and workflows to meet program test and production requirements

• Apply analytical tools and uncertainty methods to verify calibration process capability and alignment with enterprise and industry standards

• Analyze measurement data including off-nominal or out-of-tolerance conditions, and support root-cause investigations

• Develop and improve calibration procedures, specifications, and documentation to ensure consistency and compliance

• Drive continuous-improvement projects that reduce cycle time, improve M&TE availability, and increase test-system reliability

• Prepare and deliver clear technical reports and presentations for internal and external stakeholders.

• Coordinate cross-site project planning and technical integration with other MATES engineers and Boeing business units

 Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):

• Bachelor of Science degree from an accredited course of study in engineering, engineering technology (includes manufacturing engineering technology), chemistry, physics, mathematics, data science, or computer science   

• 2 + years of hands-on engineering experience with measurement or test equipment and instrumentation in aerospace, manufacturing, automotive, medical-device, or similar hardware environments
  Examples: dimensional M&TE including but not limited to Calipers, micrometers, gages, durometers, gauge blocks, squares, rulers, levels, coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), height gauges, thread gauges, and laser measurement systems. Optical M&TE including but not limited to interferometers, spectrometers, photometers, optical comparators, microscopes, and alignment telescopes

• Proficiency with Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office applications

• Proven ability to communicate technical details clearly and concisely with customers and cross-functional teams

Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):

• Level 3: 5 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience

• Level 4: 7 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience

• 3 + years’ experience in metrology or calibration/certification (ISO 17025, ANSI Z540, gage R&R, uncertainty budgets, interval analyses)

• Experience with multiple parameter families (torque, pressure, force, mass, thermodynamics, temperature, electrical, wire, dimensional (gear, spline, and thread geometry))

• Ability to read engineering drawings/specifications and translate them into practical measurement set-ups and calibration procedures

• Demonstrated success leading process-improvement or project-management activities (Lean, Six Sigma, RCCA, Agile)

• Experience presenting calibration concepts, results, and recommendations to non-metrology stakeho
