Experienced Systems Engineer

Experienced Systems Engineer Company:

The Boeing Company The Boeing Defense (BDS), Security, Space, Intelligence & Weapons Systems (SI&WS) is seeking multiple Experienced Systems Engineers to join our Experimental Systems Group (ESG) at Kennedy Space Center, FL.At Boeing, our Systems Engineers drive the innovation, development, evaluation, and end-to-end execution of validation methods and test systems across manufacturing, refurbishment, integrated vehicle testing, and operational checkout. In this role, you will operate across multiple engineering disciplines to verify system-of-systems performance, serving as the technical bridge between design intent, physical hardware validation, and flight readiness through the following responsibilities.

Position Responsibilities:

Define, decompose, and coordinate system-level test and verification requirements derived from customer, mission, and operational needs

Integrate cross-functional parameters across electrical, mechanical, fluids, thermal, and software interfaces to verify end-to-end compatibility and functional integrity

Execute specialized analyses including safety, reliability, maintainability, testability, survivability, and requirement certification to optimize configurations for mission success

Govern requirements management and verification tracking using formal tools, risk/opportunity frameworks, and readiness assessments to ensure complete verification closure

Represent the system test organization directly in the factory, test cell, and post-production environments throughout hardware builds, integrated functional testing, and refurbishment cycles

Conduct dynamic system test operations, translating complex flight and ground environments into actionable test procedures, instrumentation strategies, and acceptance criteria

Author technical dispositions and engineering deviations for hardware non-conformances, operational limit exceedances, or test anomalies to maintain operational cadence without sacrificing safety or quality Execute rapid root-cause analysis (RCA), failure investigation, and multi-system troubleshooting to diagnose complex operational anomalies and flight hardware defects

Identify, develop, and deploy continuous upgrades to test infrastructure, instrumentation setups, and operational processes to improve test cadence, reliability, and mission throughput

Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):

Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering, Engineering Technology (including Manufacturing Technology), Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or non-US equivalent qualifications directly related to the work statement
