Description
The Boeing Test Operations and Engineering (TO&E) team in Berkeley, Missouri is seeking Mechanical Systems Design & Analysis Engineers to join our Instrumentation Installation Design group supporting flight test programs.
In this team, you will have the primary responsibility for the synthesis of requirements, creation of engineering definition, 3D models, 2D drawings, and model-based definition that define the mechanical hardware required to install a flight test data system. Flight test hardware is frequently located throughout the aircraft giving you a chance to get familiar with different areas of the platform.
Instrumentation installation designers work the entire design cycle including support of requirement definition, layouts, coordination with electrical designers, preliminary design review, engineering release, coordination with manufacturing engineers and suppliers, occasional shipside support, and change incorporation.
Position Responsibilities:
- Determine where and how to locate flight test equipment on the air vehicle given upstream test requirements
- Design detailed mechanical components such as shelves, equipment trays, wiring clips, brackets, sensor mounts and specialized test mechanisms
- Incorporation of instrumentation into mechanical designs, including model-based wire routing and installation definition of how to modify the production airframe and to install sensors
- Work closely with manufacturing engineers on producibility and procurement
- Support the mod team during installation with engineering revisions and sometimes support shipside, whether that modification is along the assembly line in Saint Louis, a remote site in the US like an Air Force base, or international customers
- Support all the Saint Louis production programs (F-47, F-15, F/A-18, T-7A, MQ-25A, Weapons) and team members may work across multiple platforms concurrently
Benefits:
- Competitive base pay and variable compensation opportunities
- Health insurance, flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts, retirement savings plans, life and disability insurance programs
- Paid and unpaid time away from work
Requirements:
- Ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship
- Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering (with a focus on Mechanical, Civil, Aerospace Aeronautical or Material Sciences)
- 3+ years of experience in Mechanical design
- 3+ years of experience with a design tool (CAD package) like Siemens NX, CATIA, etc.
Preferred Qualifications:
- 5 or more years’ related work experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience
- Active U.S. Security Clearance in the past 24 months
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
- 5+ years of experience in mechanical system design
- 3+ years of experience in test and evaluation
