Job Description

At Boeing, we innovate and collaborate to make the world a better place. From the seabed to outer space, you can contribute to work that matters with a company where diversity, equity and inclusion are shared values. 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.

At Boeing, our engineers share a passion to redefine what's possible. To turn dreams into reality. To bring cutting edge technology to market. If you are seeking a dynamic, innovative environment, this opportunity is for you!

Join Boeing Production Engineering in building our next generation of amazing products. Each day, you'll work alongside experts in production, quality, design, and supply chain roles to guide aircraft from design to delivery and beyond. Bring your ideas to Boeing and help shape the future of aerospace manufacturing.

Boeing Commercial Airplanes (BCA) Engineering is seeking highly motivated Senior Propulsion Structural Analysts to perform detailed structural analysis and to provide solutions to key challenges for multiple programs in the Propulsion Structures organization. These positions will be based in Puget Sound (Renton, WA and Everett WA) though significant flexibility is available for remote working given the current environment and the long-term vision for work life balance.

Propulsion Structures is a subset of the larger Structures organization though it shares many of the same core skills such as:

• Understanding the airplane loading and environment including applied loads, loads for initial Sizing and development, interface Loads, and recognizes loads development groups and roles.
• Knows design, manufacturing, analysis and certification requirements.
• Supports structural configuration and sizing for product development including initial program development, the layout and detail Design Process.
• Develops free-body diagrams and understands load paths.
• Understands materials, specifications, allowables, and design values.
• Understands stress analysis processes including the initial approach, execution and documentation.
• Conducts static strength analysis.
• Conducts durability (Fatigue) analysis.
• Conducts damage tolerance and fail-safety analysis (limited in propulsion).
• Performs finite element analysis.
• Develops physical test requirements and uses test data appropriately.
• Communicates, administers, and leads. Propulsion structures focuses on the structure common to the engine such as the inlet, cowling, thrust reverser, pylon, systems (fuel, hydraulic, pneumatic), installation integration, and APU (auxiliary power unit). This structure has specific requirements and methods so previous propulsion analysis experience is highly desired. If you have structures experience and are interested in expanding your experience please apply.
  
  This requisition is seeking to fill multiple positions for a number of organizations including 737, 747, 767, 777, 777x, 777x freighter, 787, P-8, and the B-52 CERP (commercial engine replacement program). The majority of the positions will be for the B-52 CERP, 777X, and the newly launched 777X Freighter.
  
  Primary Responsibilities:
  • Leads development, integration and documentation of structural requirements to establish the system design.
  • Coordinates with other engineering groups to establish the product's environment.
  • Guides product design and verifies structural integrity by using and developing analytical methods, finite element models/simulations and other analysis tools throughout the product lifecycle to develop the structural environment, characteristics and performance.
  • Leads development of test plans and configurations, supports test execution and analyzes/reports test results to validate and verify systems and components meet requirements and specifications.
  • Defines and documents certification and test results to substantiate for customers and regulatory agencies that requirements are satisfied.
  • Supports in-service products by leading investigations into failures and analyzing improvements.
  • Develops analytical processes/tools to improve effectiveness, quality and efficiency of the development effort.
