Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) is hiring for multiple Systems Engineers to support development and sustainment efforts for the P-8A Advanced Airborne Systems (AAS) program located in Richardson, TX
. The candidates will support multiple phases of the product lifecycle including requirements-development, architecture analysis, bid & proposal work, verification & validation, and change impact analyses. One of the candidates will serve as the Technical Lead Engineer (TLE) for the Systems Engineering team. The other will be an individual contributor role that will primarily begin supporting system-level test but will eventually include supporting the full lifecycle of systems engineering.

The expectation is that the role will include mentorship and leadership for a team of systems engineers.

This position supports a cross-functional engineering team, primarily comprising software engineering, and there will be opportunities to cross-train to enable technical growth and continued learning. The candidate may have the opportunity to interface directly with customers and end users, present at design reviews and to senior leadership, and make an impact at a program level. This role will also be performed while utilizing a cross-functional Agile framework.
