The Boeing Company

This is Boeing: each of us is an innovator on a mission to connect, protect, explore, and inspire. From seabed to outer space, you’ll learn and grow, contributing to work that shapes the world. Find your future with us.

The Boeing Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) program area is working on several new development efforts for the Patriot Advanced Capability (PAC-3) RF seeker and is looking for an experienced Radar Seeker System Engineer, Senior, Lead or Principal, to support these efforts at the Boeing Jetplex facility in Huntsville, Alabama.

Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) PAC-3 program is an air-defense, missile system designed to intercept tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and advanced aircraft where Boeing is the original engineering manufacturer of the seeker. Boeing’s radar seekers provide target data to the PAC-3 missile which enables it to acquire, intercept, and destroy threats using hit-to-kill technology. The PAC-3 Seeker team is a cross functional, highly skilled, motivated group embracing the beliefs that focused safety, execution, and lean manufacturing and business practices will secure our future, all while driving our product to be the seeker of choice for the PAC-3 program and future generations of weapon systems.
