This posting is for a contract assignment and is not a full-time employment offer with Boeing. Candidates selected for roles will be employed as contract workers through a Boeing approved 3rd party for the duration of the specified project.

Job Description

The Boeing Mobility Surveillance and Bombers (MS&B) Electromagnetic Effects Group is seeking a broad range of experience levels, including Career, Expert, and Consultant level Electromagnetic Effects Test, Analysis and Design Engineers.

This position requires the candidate to work out of the Puget Sound region of Washington state, the Oklahoma City location, the Titusville location, or the San Antonio site. The qualified candidate will work on a multitude of Boeing Defense, Space and Security (BDS) Commercial Derivative airplane programs such as US E-7A, VC-25B, and/or the KC-46A Tanker, among others. The engineer will develop and validate Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) requirements and architectures to integrate complex systems and components into higher level systems and platforms for the Continued Airworthiness (CAW) of these platforms. The engineer will also provide EMI/EMC expertise to design and modification efforts of products being developed throughout Boeing.

E3 includes the following environments: Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), Lightning, High Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF), Precipitation Static, Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP), among others.

Primary Responsibilities

Perform complicated trade studies, modeling, simulation and other forms of analysis to predict component, interconnects and system performance and to optimize design for E3 performance.

Work (under minimal direction) to achieve Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of electronics, wiring and structure.

Interface with manufacturing for complex E3 aspects of the designs, coordinate with suppliers to assure compatibility at the system level. Report achievements and issues to program management and customers.

Support project management by coordinating development of work statement, budget, schedule and other required inputs and conducting appropriate reviews.

Additional Responsibilities

Develop and implement Test Automation for aircraft modifications.

Apply EMI engineering technology experience to document and solve complex problems.

Perform trade studies, modeling, simulation and other analyses to predict component, interconnects, and system performance and to optimize design.

Apply conversion, correction, and antenna factors to EMI/EMC analyses and test.

Work on a cross-functional support team and communicate clearly in various review boards both internally & externally.

Process engineering data into meaningful tables and graphs for inclusion into reports.

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

Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience)

Must possess a Bachelor’s degree in engineering, engineering technology, engineering physics or physics.

Must be familiar with the Electromagnetic concepts (such as RF isolation, shielding, grounding, and filtering).

Must be willing to travel up to 25% of the time as required.

5 or more years’ related work experience (Career Level).

Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience)

An ABET accredited Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or a Master’s/PhD in electrical engineering is preferred.

Active U.S. Security Clearance.

Familiarity in the defense or aerospace industry.

Previous experience of MIL-STD-461/464 and/or DO-160 EMI/EMC.

Prior experience with Aerospace Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3).

Experience with EMI qualification testing for aircraft LRU’s, including reviewing procedures and test reports.

Familiar with aircraft-level E3 requirements and test methods within MIL-STD-464.

Familiar with electrical bonding best practices in support of E3 compliance.

Foundation in RF systems and/or computational E3 analytical software tools.

Typical Education/Experience

Education/experience typically acquired through advanced technical education from an accredited course of study in engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics or chemistry (e.g., Bachelor) and typically 5 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of technical education and experience (e.g., PhD, Master+3 years' related work experience). In the USA, ABET accreditation is the preferred, although not required, accreditation standard.
