Mechanical Systems Design & Analysis Engineer (Experienced or Senior)

Boeing • Berkeley, MO

2d • $103,700 - $171,350 • Onsite

About The Position

The Boeing Test Operations and Engineering (TO&E) team in Berkeley, Missouri, is hiring Experienced and Senior Mechanical Systems Design & Analysis Engineers for its Instrumentation Installation Design group, supporting flight test programs. Design engineers synthesize requirements and create engineering definitions, 3D models, 2D drawings, and model-based definitions for mechanical hardware used to install flight test data systems. Because flight test hardware is installed in different areas of an aircraft, the role provides exposure to multiple areas of the platform.

The work spans the design cycle, including requirements definition, layouts, coordination with electrical designers, preliminary design reviews, engineering release, coordination with manufacturing engineers and suppliers, occasional shipside support, and incorporation of changes. The team supports Saint Louis production programs including F-47, F-15, F/A-18, T-7A, MQ-25A, and Weapons; team members may work across multiple platforms concurrently. The position is expected to be 100% onsite in Berkeley, Missouri.

This position requires the ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance and program access. An interim and/or final U.S. Secret Clearance is required post-start. Candidates must satisfy the Company's Conflict of Interest assessment process and U.S. export control compliance requirements. Boeing will not sponsor applicants for employment visa status. Relocation is available based on candidate eligibility.

Requirements

• At least 5 years of experience in mechanical system design.
• At least 3 years of experience in test and evaluation.
• Knowledge of machine shop fabrication capabilities, including conventional and CNC machining, drilling, lathe, fit and finish tools and processes, and inspection/check-out.
• Knowledge of or familiarity with additive manufacturing processes and tools.
• Understanding of material properties, mechanical statics and dynamics, and structural design.
• Understanding of structural dynamics, fluid flow, and thermodynamics theory and application.

Responsibilities

• Determine where and how to locate flight test equipment on an air vehicle based on upstream test requirements.
• Design detailed mechanical components, including shelves, equipment trays, wiring clips, brackets, sensor mounts, and specialized test mechanisms.
• Incorporate instrumentation into mechanical designs, including model-based wire routing and installation definitions for modifying production airframes and installing sensors.
• Work with manufacturing engineers on producibility and procurement.
• Support installation teams with engineering revisions and, occasionally, shipside support at the Saint Louis assembly line, remote U.S. locations such as Air Force bases, or international customer locations.
• Support Saint Louis production programs including F-47, F-15, F/A-18, T-7A, MQ-25A, and Weapons.

Benefits

• Competitive base pay and variable compensation opportunities.
• Eligible employees may enroll in benefit programs generally including health insurance, flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts, retirement savings plans, life and disability insurance, and programs providing paid and unpaid time away from work.
