Electromagnetic Effects Design And Analysis Engineer
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. Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) Mobility, Surveillance & Bombers (MS&B) Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) Group seeks an Electromagnetic Effects Design and Analysis Engineer to support BDS commercial-derivative aircraft programs such as the U.S. E-7A and the KC-46A tanker among others in Tukwila, WA.
This engineer will develop and validate E3 requirements and architectures to integrate complex components and subsystems into higher-level platforms. Responsibilities include defining and conducting tests to validate designs to requirements and providing Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)/Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) expertise during design, modification, supplier engagement, and manufacturing activities. E3 environments include EMI, Lightning, High Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF), Precipitation Static (P-static), Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP), and related environments.
Our teams are currently hiring for a broad range of experience levels including Career or Expert Level Engineers.
Position Responsibilities:
- Perform trade studies, modeling, simulation, and other analyses to predict component, interconnect, and system performance and to optimize designs for E3 performance.
- Work (with minimal direction at higher levels) to achieve EMC of electronics, wiring, and structure.
- Interface with manufacturing and suppliers on complex E3 design aspects to assure system-level compatibility; identify and report achievements and issues to program management and customers.
- Review supplier test plans and test reports for technical correctness; identify deficiencies and coordinate corrective actions.
- Support project management by contributing to development of work statements, budgets, schedules, and design/review inputs.
- Collaborate with other engineering disciplines and suppliers to assess changes to equipment, determine impacts on electromagnetic characteristics, and recommend mitigations.
- Develop and implement test automation for aircraft modifications.
- Apply EMI engineering methods to document and resolve complex technical problems.
- Apply conversion, correction, and antenna factors to EMI/EMC analyses and tests.
- Participate on cross-functional teams and present technical results in internal and external reviews.
- Process engineering data into tables, graphs, and deliverables for inclusion in reports.
- Support or conduct aircraft-level E3 testing.
This position is expected to be 100% onsite. The selected candidate will be required to work onsite at the listed location. Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):
- This position requires the ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship. An interim and/or final U.S. Secret Clearance Post-Start is required.
- Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering (with a focus in Electrical, Mechanical or Aeronautical), Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or non-US equivalent qualifications directly related to the work statement.
- 3+ years of experience with Electromagnetic concepts (such as RF isolation, shielding, grounding, and filtering).
- Able and willing to travel up to 25% of the time domestically.
Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):
- Expert (Level
4): 5 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience. - ABET-accredited Bachelor's in electrical engineering or an advanced degree (M.S./Ph.D.) in electrical engineering preferred.
- Active U.S. Security Clearance preferred.
- Prior experience in defense or aerospace industries.
- Experience with MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-464, and/or DO-160 EMI/EMC standards.
- Prior experience with Aerospace E3.
- Experience with EMI qualification testing (LRUs and system-level).
- Familiarity with electrical bonding best practices to support E3 compliance.
- Foundation in RF systems and/or computational E3…
