The
Boeing Phantom Works Space
team has an exciting opportunity for
Fault Management & Systems Autonomy Engineers
to join our team located in
Kent, WA.
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to personally contribute to the development of new first-of-kind space vehicles and missions.
As a senior/lead member of our Guidance Navigation & Controls (GN&C) team, you will join an experienced and mission-focused team of engineers to develop new concepts in mission planning, precision maneuver and fault and autonomy design. We rapidly prototype new concepts then deploy and iterate our designs and systems. As a senior/lead engineer working in this area, you will lead Fault Analysis efforts (FMECA, Fault Tree and Branch Termination, Fault Test Threshold, Persistence, Interference (TPI) Analysis), Fault Contingency, providing inputs to Dynamics and Control simulations and leading Modeling and Mission Analysis. Our development timelines are aggressive, and you will be asked to develop solutions to previously unsolved problems.
In this role, you will work in multidisciplinary teams to bring a concept of operations to fruition in support of our customers’ mission objectives. You will primarily work as a technical lead and will also assist as an individual contributor for key tasks. An ideal candidate has familiarity working Fault Management & Autonomy throughout the total life cycle for a spacecraft and has a strong technical background across all spacecraft subsystems with particular depth in Attitude Control Systems (ACS)/Guidance Navigation & Control (GNC), flight software, or spacecraft operations as well as a strong system background spanning both space and ground domains. You will need to be able to dive into broad, minimally-defined design spaces and effectively lead integrated efforts.
Position Responsibilities:
Create a fault design framework for a major program
Develop system fault tree and develops fault management strategy for mission
Understand and contribute to CONOPS development

Develop algorithms to implement fault management strategy, including orbit raising techniques in off nominal conditions
Develop operational concepts and products, develops interface requirements, and performs verification and validation
Perform analyses to evaluate and optimize total system performance to meet customer autonomous operation requirements
Resolve technical issues and ensures the spacecraft and system are flight worthy prior to delivery
Create tools and techniques to optimize, analyze, and validate performance
Develop solutions with cross-functional teams to assure mission success and presenting those findings to customer, chief engineer, and senior management
Perform trade studies to meet program requirements
