Job Details

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.

Applies an interdisciplinary, collaborative approach to plan, design, develop and verify a lifecycle balanced system of systems and system solutions. Evaluates customer and /operational needs to define and coordinate system performance requirements, integrate technical parameters and assure compatibility of all physical, functional and program interfaces. Performs various analyses to optimize total system of systems and/or system architecture. Performs analyses for affordability, safety, reliability, maintainability, testability, human systems integration, survivability, vulnerability, susceptibility, system security, regulatory, certification, product assurance and other specialties quality factors into a preferred configuration to ensure mission success. Develops the planning, organization, implementation and monitoring of requirements management processes, tools, risk, issues, opportunity management and technology readiness assessment processes. Resolves cross-functional technical issues.

Primary Responsibilities:

Team member will work with other industry partners in the development and execution of a comprehensive assessment program supporting the C2BMC Element of the Ballistic Missile Defense System.

  • Evaluates systems under various scenarios and architectures to determine and/or optimize overall system mission performance in a framework giving insight into performance that may be employed by Missile Defense Agency and Warfighters
  • Performs various analyses to optimize total system of systems and/or system architecture
  • Develops and maintains analysis tools of varied fidelity including modeling and simulation tools to predict performance against evolving threats of current and future missile defense systems
  • Develops, maintains and identifies improvements for the planning, organization, implementation and monitoring of requirements management processes, tools, risk, issues, opportunity management and technology readiness assessment processes
  • Defines, schedules, assigns, and executes tasks, and monitors completion to lead the monitoring of integration and checkout activities, receiving and evaluating of results of activities, and approving/disapproving of each by determining whether results meet the checkout requirements, so that integration activities can proceed
  • Supporting the subject matter experts for integration and test domains, system engineering system performance/ domains, system-specific issues, processes, tools, and regulations
  • Support efforts to solve complex missile defense problems
  • Utilization of MBSE tools such as CAMEO or DOORS, System Architect and mathematical modeling and simulation to provide thought leadership and lead trade studies in assigned areas
  • Requirements and architecture development in support of MDS systems
  • Drive the system engineering integration and test or system analysis approach
  • Develop, select, tailor and deploy integration and test processes, tools and metrics
  • Execute and document integration and test activities and events
  • Develop, define efficiencies and improvements to tools to improve team productivity
  • Perform system analysis trade studies to define technical concepts and solutions

Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience) :

  • Bachelor or Master of Science degree from an accredited course of study, in engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics or chemistry.
  • Experience using analytical, collaboration, communication and organizational skills
  • Minimum of 1 year of in system engineering (e.g. Systems, Design, Architecture, Integration, Requirements or Test)

Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience) :

  • 3 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience
  • Ability to obtain a Top-Secret clearance or an active Top Secret clearance highly desired
  • Growing understanding of DoD and missile defense command and control, battle management, architectures and communications system concepts, mission, and common system test and data analysis techniques
  • Experience with verification of requirements
  • Must have an understanding of System Engineering and iterative product development using Agile practices.
  • Experience in developing capability assessments, assessment objectives and related assessment plans and procedures.
  • Experience in scripting and automated test development is a plus.
  • This position requires exposure to a broad range of personnel within MDA and its associated sub-elements.
  • Experience using MATLAB, Python, JAVA, or similar language environment to develop analytical tools or perform numerical modeling of complex systems.
  • Demonstrated experience performing systems analysis or performance analysis including system concept trade studies, operational analysis, requirements analysis, feasibility analysis, system performance measures of effectiveness analysis (incl. technical performance measures), discrimination methods and techniques definition, probability analysis, or vehicle analysis.
  • Demonstrated experience modeling or simulating missile defense elements or systems in similar domains (air combat, air defense, intercept of ballistic targets, intercept of non-ballistic targets, space vehicles, sub-orbital mechanics, etc.)
  • Experience with Agile Development processes is a plus

Typical Education/Experience :

Associate: 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 2 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of technical education and experience (e.g. Master). In the USA, ABET accreditation is the preferred, although not required, accreditation standard.

Mid-Level: 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.
