Software Engineer–Vehicle Management Systems

The Boeing Companyis currently seeking anAssociate Software EngineerVehicle Management Systemsto support ourExperimental Systems Group (ESG) Flight Software (FSW) teamlocatedinSeal Beach California.This position will focus on supporting the Boeing Defense Space & Security (BDS) Software Engineering organization.

This role is ideal for software engineers who enjoy working close to flight hardware and mission operations care deeply about safety reliability and performance and want to grow into a domain expert in Vehicle Management Systems (VMS) for advanced aerospace and autonomy platforms.

You will design implement andvalidatesoftware components that support guidance navigation and control functions; integrate sensor and actuator interfaces; collaborate with autonomy specialists to engineer algorithms for autonomous controls; and contribute to the real-time execution environment for vehicle control.

Theidea candidatewill collaborate with systems and flight software engineers to translate requirements and interface control documents (ICDs) into robust architectures and well-defined control logic with clear timing units limits and fault-handling behaviors. You will build andmaintainsimulation- and hardware-in-the-loop test assets to verify algorithms and interfaces under nominal and off-nominal conditions; write unit/integration tests and verification procedures; contribute to test/integration workflows code reviews and documentation; and support configuration management and release activities for mission-critical software.

Position Responsibilities:

• Partners with cross-functional engineering teams and contributes toidentify review and inform requirements and specifications for vehicle management.

• Contributes to the development of vehicle management software and partners with stakeholders to support integration ofexternally generatedfunctions into vehicle management systems.

• Supports development of test plans and test cases for vehicle management software validation.

• Contributes to verification validation and integration processes for vehicle management software in compliance with internal and industry standards and regulations.

• Supports providing input on software implementations during system-level design and architecture.

• Participates in the investigation and resolution of vehicle management software-related issues reported by users or that occurred during system operation.

• Supports the development and maintenance of software documentation including design documents user manuals and technical specifications.

• Supports implementation of current and emerging technologies tools frameworks and methods in vehicle management software development.
