Job Description At Boeing, we innovate and collaborate to make the world a better place. We're committed to fostering an environment for every teammate that's welcoming, respectful and inclusive, with great opportunity for professional growth. Find your future with us. Autonomy Engineer (Mid Career) - Millennium Space Systems Millennium Space Systems (MSS), a part of Boeing Defense, Space and Security (BDS) is seeking a Autonomy Engineer (Mid Career) to support the Engineering team in El Segundo, CA!
Job Summary Autonomy Engineering is focused on design, analysis, and development of mission Concepts of Operations (CONOPS) from customer use cases and requirements, and enabling mission success through comprehensive on-board fault management and autonomy. Engineers in the group are integral throughout the entire program lifecycle. They are key stakeholders in the design and validation of mission CONOPS and Design Reference Missions (DRM), and are leaders in comprehensive end-to-end software integration, validation, and testing.
They define the underlying architecture for fault detection, isolation, and response (FDIR), and own the development and validation of satellite/constellation specific fault configuration(s). They are the chief architects and implementers of satellite/constellation autonomy, ensuring mission level objectives are met and spacecraft health and safety are always maintained. As an Autonomy Engineer on the Autonomy Team, you will be the Responsible Engineering Authority (REA) for all Autonomy for a program, study, or proposal.
You will define fault & autonomy requirements; define states, modes, and transitions; define and develop the fault & autonomy architecture for satellites/constellations, including fault-tolerance and redundancy requirements; define and analyze thresholds and persistence of on-board fault tests; design fault responses to ensure containment of failed hardware and health and safety of on-orbit satellites; provide tools and procedures for use during on-orbit mission operations;
and support on-console mission operations for on-orbit spacecraft as a mission specialist. In addition to execution of technical design, analysis, and operation, you may be responsible for project management activities to support programs, ensuring that high-quality work products are delivered on-time. This position's internal job code is Systems Engineer. Our team is currently hiring for Levels 3.
Position Responsibilities:
* Perform fault and autonomy requirements definition, verification, and validation
* Define satellite/constellation states, modes, transitions, and other autonomous spacecraft behaviors
* Contribute to architecture concepts, CONOPS, and technology trade-off analyses
* Design and validate onboard fault detection, isolation, and responses and perform end-to-end validation of autonomy products and behaviors
* Support on-console operations for on-orbit missions
* Other duties as assigned
This position is expected to be 100% onsite. The selected candidate will be required to work onsite at one of the listed location options.
