Job Description Qualifications:

We are Boeing Research & Technology (BR&T): Boeing's global research and development team creating and implementing innovative technologies that make the impossible possible and enabling the future of aerospace. We are engineers and technicians, skilled scientists and bold innovators; Join us and put your passion, determination, and skill to work building the future #TheFutureIsBuiltHere #ChangeTheWorld

This position is part of the rapidly growing Electro-Optical (EO) / Infra-Red (IR) Mission Systems team within BR&T. The EO/IR Mission Systems (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 pace 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 Electrical Engineer (Level 4 or 5) to join our team in Huntington Beach, California, with experience in the development of mission systems for space and airborne platforms to lead development of next generation electronics for optical sensing systems from conceptual design through operation prototypes on multiple programs.
