Entry-Level Electrical Design Engineer

Job Description

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.

The Boeing Test and Evaluation (BT&E) Design Build Flight Test Instrumentation organization is seeking an Entry-Level Electrical Design Engineer to support multiple platforms for Flight Test to join our team in Berkeley, MO.

In this team, a design engineer has the primary responsibility for the synthesis of requirements, creation of engineering definition with electrical schematics and drawings that define the electrical hardware required to install a flight test data system. Flight test sometimes interfaces with the production wiring and is located throughout the aircraft, giving an employee a chance to get familiar with different areas of the platform. Design Build designers work the entire design cycle including support of requirement definition, layouts, coordination with mechanical designers, preliminary design review, engineering release, coordination with manufacturing engineers and suppliers, occasional shipside support, and change incorporation.

Flight Test Instrumentation design creates the engineering definition for the hardware needed to fabricate and install the flight test data acquisition system. For electrical design, engineering is typically created with Mentor Graphics and our legacy data is in AutoCad. A flight test program will accompany a new contract for a modification or upgrade and collect data from the plane in flight. Typically, the team is given requirements for flight test equipment to be installed from other teams within Boeing Test and Evaluation, and we determine where and how to locate it on the air vehicle.

Position Responsibilities:

• Understand and design for digital and analog data; create wiring between sensors, equipment, and production components; tap into production data; manage fiber optics; provide protection from EMI; and deliver power to equipment

• Work closely with manufacturing engineers on producibility and procurement

• Support the mod team during installation with engineering revisions and sometimes support ship-side, whether that modification is along the assembly line in Saint Louis, a remote site in the US like an Air Force base, or even sometimes internationally

• Support all the Saint Louis production programs (F-47, F-15, F/A-18, T-7A, MQ-25A, Weapons) and team members will work across those platforms

• Assist with the development and documentation of electronic and electrical system requirements

• Develop or modify basic hardware and software designs based on defined requirements

• Perform system tests to verify operational and functional requirements

• Assist in monitoring suppliers' performance to ensure compliance with requirements

• Support resolution of product integration issues and production anomalies

• Research basic technologies for potential application to company business needs
