Boeing•El Segundo, CA

9d•Onsite

About The Position

Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) is seeking a Verification Engineering Manager to join our teams in El Segundo or Huntington Beach, California. Our ASIC & FPGA Engineering organization is a centralized engineering capability supporting a diverse portfolio of advanced aerospace, space, and defense programs. Rather than joining a single product team, our engineers become part of a long-term engineering organization where they contribute across multiple technologies and programs as business needs evolve, providing continuous technical growth and long-term career stability. Our teams develop advanced digital technologies including ASICs, SoCs, FPGAs, digital processors, communications systems, sensor processing, high-speed digital interfaces, and other mission-critical electronics supporting commercial aviation, defense platforms, national security space systems, satellite payloads, autonomous aircraft, and other advanced applications. We believe exceptional engineers are developed through ownership, technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous learning. Engineers are encouraged to take ownership beyond narrowly defined functional boundaries by identifying risks early, driving technical solutions, communicating effectively, and helping teammates succeed. Our teams bring together complementary technical strengths while providing opportunities to broaden systems understanding and develop deep expertise in selected domains. Successful engineers are curious, proactive, and collaborative. They enjoy solving challenging technical problems, mentoring others, continuously improving their skills, and contributing to the success of both their teams and the broader engineering organization. As engineers gain experience, they have opportunities to expand into technical leadership, subsystem ownership, mentoring, architecture discussions, and cross-functional leadership while continuing to grow their technical expertise.
