Experienced Sensor and Software Engineer, El Segundo, CA

Position Overview:

This position will support the Phantom Works Space Advanced Missions team across multiple programs in Modeling and Simulation Systems engineering to develop rendezvous and proximity relative navigation sensing algorithms for space applications.

Position supports ongoing development of the Boeing Vision-based Electro-Optical Sensor Tracking Assembly (VESTA) for use on the several fully automated space applications. Applicant will work closely with a small integrated product team to design, develop, test and deliver integrated products. Works as a protégé with a Boeing Associate Technical Fellow that is an expert in development of imaging sensor algorithms.

Position Responsibilities:

  • Investigates emerging sensor algorithms for applicability in space demonstration and operational applications.

  • Develops and validates requirements for electro-optical sensing algorithms, with emphasis on detection, tracking, pose estimation and object reconstruction using visible, Long Wave Infrared (LWIR), Light Detection and Ranging/Laser Detection and Ranging (LIDAR/LADAR) sensor data.

  • Assists in developing processing architectures to integrate algorithms into higher level spacecraft systems to perform rendezvous and proximity operations and/or terrain relative navigation.

  • Performs trade studies, modeling, simulation and other forms of analysis to predict algorithm and system performance and to optimize design around established requirements.

  • Defines and conducts tests to validate performance of designs to requirements.

  • Provides support to products throughout their lifecycle by developing root-cause analysis of anomalies and other engineering support as requested.

This position requires the ability to obtain an active Top Secret U.S. Security Clearance with a Single Scope Investigation SCI/SSBI eligibility. (A U.S. Security Clearance that has been active in the past 24 months is considered active). 

Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):

  • This position requires the ability to obtain an active Top Secret U.S. Security Clearance with a Single Scope Investigation SCI/SSBI eligibility. (A U.S. Security Clearance that has been active in the past 24 months is considered active). 

  • Must possess a bachelor’s degree or higher in engineering or related technical filed

  • 3+ years’ software development full-life cycle experience

Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):

  • Active Top Secret U.S. Security Clearance with a Single Scope Background Investigation SCI/SSBI eligibility.

  • Experience with electro-optical sensing algorithms, with emphasis on detection, tracking, pose estimation and object reconstruction using visible, Long Wave Infrared (LWIR), Light Detection and Ranging/Laser Detection and Ranging (LIDAR/LADAR) sensor data.

  • Experience with integration and testing of sensor algorithms and software in a hardware-in-the loop integration and test lab.

  • Experience leading software development projects or teams

Degree and typical experience in engineering classification:

Education/experience typically acquired through advanced technical education from an accredited course of study in engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics or chemistry (e.g. Bachelor) and typically 5 or more years’ related work experience or an equivalent combination of technical education and experience (e.g. PhD, Master+3 years’ related work experience). In the USA, ABET accreditation is the preferred, although not required, accreditation standard.

Relocation:

This position offers relocation based on candidate eligibility. Basic relocation is available for internal candidates.

Drug Free Workforce:

Boeing is a Drug Free Workplace where post offer applicants and employees are subject to testing for marijuana, cocaine, opioids, amphetamines, PCP, and alcohol when criteria is met as outlined in our policies.
