About The Position

Boeing Defense & Space (BDS) is seeking a motivated Senior (Level 4) or Expert (Level 5) Systems Engineer to support / join the Vertical Lift (VL) program Requirements & System Architecture team located in Ridley Park, PA . The selected candidate will report to the Requirements and System Architecture team. Boeing Vertical Lift products support the vital missions of defense forces around the world and provide protection and relief in a constantly changing geopolitical environment. With more than 70 years of leadership in rotorcraft technology, Boeing has consistently demonstrated dedication to improvement and innovation. Boeing Philadelphia is the proud home of some of the most advanced vertical lift platforms in the world, including H-47 Chinook, V-22 Osprey and MH-139 Grey Wolf. These platforms support customers including the US Army, Marines, Navy and Air Force, and international customers in the United Kingdom, Canada, Singapore, India, etc. The Philadelphia site offers exceptional professional development and advancement opportunities for future leaders. The Boeing Philadelphia Requirements and Architecture (R&A) team supports requirement development, definition, and verification as part of the systems engineering integration effort. The R&A team is also responsible for defining and managing an integrated architecture across the different product teams for various production programs. This position supports the development and decomposition of customer requirements into contractual design and performance requirements. Additional activities will include developing the corresponding requirements verification plans, which will require leading technical integration with our Integrated Product Teams (IPTs). In this role, engineers will also be supporting the verification execution for our vertical lift platforms. This will include artifact discovery, verification of evidence against design and performance requirements, and verification acceptance through collaborative customer reviews. Individuals will need to interface with design teams to ensure compliance to baseline system architecture. Individuals will support integration of multiple engineering disciplines within the various design IPTs and require an ability to develop a working knowledge of multiple engineering commodities. Individuals will need to perform various analyses to optimize total system of systems or system architecture, combined with analyses on affordability, safety, reliability, maintainability, testability, human systems integration, survivability, vulnerability, susceptibility, system security, regulatory certification, product assurance, and other specialties into a preferred configuration to ensure mission success. This role may provide opportunities to use cross disciplinary knowledge and experience to utilize model-based systems engineering (MBSE) techniques to support the continued operational effectiveness of multiple legacy air vehicle systems. Opportunities will be available to expose individuals to various aspects of the systems engineering process throughout the product lifecycle, beginning with concept of operations, into preliminary and critical design phases, through production and into fleet support. Strong interpersonal communication skills are essential for success in this position. Individuals will be expected to leverage their significant knowledge of engineering design and system integration to facilitate the peer review of junior engineers and/or the leadership of larger scale project/program systems engineering efforts. This position is expected to be 100% onsite.
