About The Position

Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) / Intelligence Systems (IS) is seeking motivated and self-starting Lead Program Technical Integrator (PTI) Engineer for our team based in Saint Charles, MO. At Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) you will help connect, protect, explore and inspire. As Lead Program Technical Integrator (PTI) Engineer supporting the Program Chief Engineer (PCE) under PRO 6924 delegation, you will provide hands‑on technical leadership across the Direct Attack (DA) portfolio—supporting product variants such as JDAM, SDB, GLSDB, MOP/HAAWC, B-61 derivations, and related efforts. You will translate the PCE’s technical direction into executable integration plans, drive hardware/software integration across the product lifecycle, and ensure technical integrity for development, production, and sustainment. Reporting to the DA Office of the Chief Engineer working closely with the Program Chief Engineer for independent technical direction, you will coordinate IPT activities, manage supplier integration, close technical risks, and prepare executive-level technical briefings. This role requires a system-integration mindset, strong technical judgment, and the ability to implement disciplined engineering processes to deliver safe, compliant, and mission-ready systems.
