Navigation Engineer Company: The Boeing Company Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS), Electronic & Intelligence Systems (E&IS) seeks a Navigation Engineer to deliver best solutions for today's complex undersea engineering challenges. Products range from Autonomous Extra-Large Unmanned Undersea Vehicles ( XLUUV s) to unique Integrated underwater solutions. We work for a variety of customers and on a variety of precision Position Navigation and Timing ( PNT ) development efforts. Position Responsibilities : Support development of cutting-edge models, simulation tools, and navigation strategies for systems using sensor aided navigation techniques for a variety of applications in undersea environments. Evaluate system level requirements and establish navigation system design requirements to support design realization. Interact with some of the world’s top navigation equipment suppliers, military experts, and civilian experts while participating in team efforts to design products and review and analyze data to ensure compliance to requirements. Support developing and analyzing navigation system mechanizations, error and performance models, and component error budgets. Collect and review data from hardware-in-the-loop and system and component tests to measure and validate navigation performance against design requirements. Support candidate sensor system evaluation to increase navigation performance, decrease cost, and ensure compliance to requirements. Analyze system and component test results and identify trade opportunities to optimize performance, cost, or other attributes. To meet security standards and protocols, all work is performed onsite in Herndon, VA. This position requires an active Top Secret U.S. Security Clearance (U.S. Citizenship Required). (A U.S. Security Clearance that has been active in the past 24 months is considered active.) This position is contingent on clearance verification and customer concurrence.
