JRSystems Engineer (Experienced or Lead)
** Company:
**** Build the system-of-systems that protects the homeland.
**** Boeing’s Phantom Works
** Missile Defense National Teams are hiring
** Systems Engineers
** to work at
** Huntsville, AL
** at the intersection of
** mission outcomes, architecture, analysis, integration, and test.
** On the
** Boeing-led Systems Engineering and Integration (SE&I) National Team**, you’ll help the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) shape system-level concepts, architectures, requirements, and assessments that drive incremental upgrades to America’s Missile Defense System.

On the
** Command, Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2

BMC) National Team**, you’ll help evolve the integrating element that links sensors and weapons and synchronizes operations to deliver a layered defense across all phases of flight.

Our teams are currently hiring a broad range of
** Experienced and Lead Systems Engineers in the following disciplines:
*** Systems Architecture, Requirements and Interfaces
* Systems Integration, Verification, & Validation
* Modeling and Simulation
** Position Responsibilities
** Depending on your assignment, you will contribute across mission assessment, architecture, requirements, Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE), integration, and test – often with direct collaboration across Boeing, industry partners, and government stakeholders.
** Systems Architecture, Requirements, and Interfaces
*** Help define and evolve the MDA/C2

BMC system architecture.
* Develop and maintain requirements and architecture artifacts (including interface definitions) to support missile defense capabilities.
* Run and support architecture and requirements trade studies to recommend options that improve mission performance, cost/schedule, and technical feasibility.
* Own and improve the requirements management engine: planning, organizing, implementing, and monitoring of requirements processes and tools (including traceability, change control, and quality).
* Support program-level risks/issues/opportunities tracking and technology readiness assessments as they relate to architecture and requirements decisions.
* Collaborate frequently with MDA, warfighters, and industry partners to align requirements, interfaces, and system priorities.
** Systems Integration, Verification, & Validation
*** Plan and execute integration and checkout work – define tasks, schedule them, assign work, monitor completion, and keep the integration plan moving.
* Evaluate results from integration/checkout activities and determine whether they meet checkout requirements so the team can proceed to the next stage.
* Help define and drive the overall integration and test (I&T) strategy (processes, tools, and metrics) to ensure we verify requirements effectively and consistently.
* Execute and document integration and test events, including capturing results, issues, and evidence needed for verification.
* Partner with integration/test SMEs to solve complex system problems spanning process, tools, regulations, and system-specific issues.
* Identify and implement tool/process improvements that reduce friction and increase throughput (automation, reporting, repeatable workflows).
** Modeling and Simulation
*** Evaluate system performance across realistic scenarios and architectures to provide mission insight used by MDA and warfighters.
* Build and maintain analysis tools across multiple levels of fidelity, including modeling and simulation that predicts performance against evolving threats.
* Perform system and performance trade studies (mission effectiveness, architecture comparisons, “what-if” analyses) to inform technical decisions.
* Develop and improve modeling approaches to ensure results are credible, repeatable, and decision-useful (assumptions, data handling, validation/verification of models).
* Use modeling, simulation, and quantitative methods to provide technical leadership and recommendations in assigned focus areas.
