Job Description

Job DescriptionAt 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

Key Highlights

  • Define and own the system architecture for EW and radar-enabled systems from concept through integration, test, and delivery.
  • Translate mission and vehicle-level performance requirements into system-level requirements
  • Lead trade studies to balance EW and radar capability, detection/mitigation techniques, performance, and vehicle constraints (size, weight, power, cooling, EMI)
  • Architect software-defined EW and radar solutions, specifying critical HW/SW partitioning, reconfigurability, and processing pipelines
  • Provide technical leadership for electronics design, RF front-end, radar receiver/transmitter considerations, digitizers, signal processing chains, and real-time firmware implementation

Qualifications

Required Qualifications

  • 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
  • 14+ years of work-related experience with a bachelor’s degree or 12+ years of work-related experience with a masters or 9+ years of work-related experience with a PhD
  • 10+ years of professional experience in RF systems for SIGNIT, Electronic Warfare, Information Operations or Cyber
  • Hands-on knowledge of Electronic Warfare techniques (e.g., detection, jamming, deception, electronic protection) and radar techniques (e.g., detection, tracking, SAR/GMTI basics, radar signal processing)
  • Experience in electronic warfare principles, techniques, and technologies
  • Advanced degree (MS or PhD) in EE, CE, Systems Engineering, or related field.
  • Prior role as EW architect, radar systems architect, lead systems engineer, or equivalent technical lead on EW or radar programs.
  • Deep RF/analog design experience, including front-end receiver/transmitter design, digitizers, ADC/DAC selection, and RF test techniques.
  • Experience with the design, build and the maintenance of SIL (Software -in-the-loop) or HIL (Hardware-in-the-loop) labs
  • Expertise in real-time signal processing algorithms and implementation on DSPs, FPGAs, or heterogeneous processing platforms for both EW and radar applications.
  • Proficiency in firmware development languages/tools (C/C++, VHDL/Verilog, RTL-to-bitstream flows) and SW integration practices.
  • Familiarity with EMI/EMC, thermal management, and mechanical integration challenges for vehicle-mounted EW and radar systems.
  • Experience designing and architecting low SWaP (size, weight, and power) software-defined EW/radar systems and balancing vehicle performance constraints.
