Who You Are

In this role you will lead the research, development, evaluation and integration of robotics, automation, and new technologies. Including, processes related to equipment and tooling for applicability to programs and products.

You are a senior electronics focused Senior Production Engineer who combines deep circuit and systems level expertise with hands on manufacturing and test experience to make complex avionics designs producible, testable, reliable and safe. Are engaged with electronic Design Engineering teams and influence decisions early, translate engineering intent into repeatable factory processes, and own the technical interface between Design, Manufacturing, Test and Quality across program lifecycles. Proactively able to remove barriers to production readiness, champion Design for Manufacturing and Test (DFM/DFT) principles, and turn lessons learned into practical changes that reduce cost, risk, and schedule exposure.

Position Responsibilities:

• •Review work products and provide Manufacturing and Quality input to design and test artifacts, including schematics, PCB/CCA drawings, parts lists, test plans/procedures, process templates, and coordination/decision memos. You ensure documentation aligns with producibility, testability, and program requirements
• •Drive New Product Introductions (NPI) readiness and DFM/DFT (Design for Manufacturing & Test), resolve product and process issues through root cause and corrective actions, and mentor teams while embedding Safety, Quality, and Lean improvements across programs.
• •Applies knowledge of Boeing design principles for manufacturing capabilities and constraints to assess and resolve product or process issues throughout the product lifecycle.
• •Provides technical leadership and mentoring to all levels AvionX organization

• •Mentor engineers, interns, co-ops, and rotational participants to raise team capability in PCB/CCA manufacturability, test techniques, and troubleshooting best practices
• •Lead and participate in cross functional scrums, ad hoc technical meetings, governance and decision boards and Lean innovation activities. You facilitate timely decisions, continuous improvement, and alignment between Design, Manufacturing, Test, Quality, and Supply Chain
• •Create and maintain AvionX level technical artifacts such as site drawings, assembly/process flows, test fixture specifications, and process templates that enable consistent, repeatable builds across sites and suppliers
• •You will be accountable for establishing production readiness gates and go/no-go criteria, defining key production KPIs, and delivering measurable outcomes for ramp rate, yield, and first-pass test success
• •You will influence supplier design-for-manufacturing strategies and ensure downstream testability and maintainability are engineered into products from day one
• •Drive cost reduction and throughput improvement initiatives through participation in readiness reviews, continuous improvement events, and implementation of automation or tooling where it provides measurable value to quality, safety, or program schedule
• •Travel to suppliers and other Boeing sites as required to support ramp and sustainment activities, supplier audits, and cross-site knowledge transfer
