About the position

Boeing Defense, Space & Security is seeking Mid-Level and Senior Propulsion Engineers to support propulsion system analysis and development for the MQ-25 and T-7 Red Hawk programs. This role involves working on flight systems engineering, contributing to the design, integration, and qualification of aerospace systems, and applying expertise in various engineering disciplines to meet customer requirements.

Responsibilities

• Assist in defining Guidance, Navigation and Control mission requirements and ensure requirements traceability and quality from the system level to component level.
• Use multidisciplinary model data to develop and refine a complex, nonlinear, 6 degrees of freedom simulation model.
• Support design of flight control laws using modern linear control design techniques and tools to achieve design and performance targets.
• Use advanced nonlinear analysis to assess and refine the control law design.
• Perform model validation against test data to inform and improve the accuracy of the simulation environment.
• Develop supplementary controllers, limiters, mode logic, and signal shaping to properly bound the performance within all areas of the flight envelope.
• Work with flight simulation and Vehicle Management Systems (VMS) software engineers to incorporate control laws into the operational flight program.
• Support flight simulations, hardware in the loop testing, and flight testing.
• Participate in design reviews, analyses, simulations and component/system testing to ensure delivery of products that meet or exceed customer requirements and expectations.

Requirements

• Bachelor of Science degree from an accredited course of study in engineering, engineering technology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, data science, or computer science.
• 5+ years of experience with a Bachelor's degree or 3+ years with a Master's degree or PhD.
