About The Position

As an electrical engineer, you understand the workings behind complex systems. That knowledge is key when it comes to prototyping electronics systems and engineering new unmanned technologies and systems. We’re looking for an electrical engineer who can use their skills to develop advanced systems for the military. At Booz Allen, you’ll use your engineering skills to transform the Navy. Our team develops next generation engineering solutions. That’s why we need you, an electrical engineer, with experience with trajectory control and planning, to help us design and develop prototypes and implement hardware and software on Navy unmanned vehicles. On our team, you’ll perform hands-on engineering and testing of the vehicles, including performing at-sea testing. You’ll impact the Navy by performing the critical engineering functions to support unmanned vehicle missions. This is a chance to use your experience-based knowledge in sensors, navigation systems, and programming while broadening your skillset into areas like systems engineering and cybersecurity. Take on exciting challenges with the Navy with us as we support the warfighter’s mission. Join us. The world can’t wait.
