About The Position

Boeing Defense, Space and Security (BDS) is seeking an Associate or Mid-Level Electrophysics Engineer (Radar Systems Analysis) to join the Kent Space SEIT team located in Kent, WA. This position focuses on developing radar analysis and algorithms in a mission-critical environment that directly empowers defensive capabilities. The role involves developing and validating requirements for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) systems, performing trade studies, designing and running tests to verify performance, supporting engineering compliance, and providing lifecycle root-cause analysis. The position emphasizes algorithm design and software implementation in a cloud environment, including developing and evaluating radar algorithms (signal and image processing, detection, tracking, imaging) for ground processing and translating them into production-ready code. Proficiency in Python or C++ for algorithm development, prototyping, and data analysis is required. Experience with signal and image processing tool sets, real-time software constraints, and test-program design is highly valued. Strong analytical, communication, and customer-focused skills with a commitment to quality and safety are essential.
