The Boeing Global Services (BGS) is seeking a motivated, self-starting Associate level Structural Analysis and Tracking Program Engineer to join Aircraft Structural Integrity Program located in Long Beach, CA

The C-17 Globemaster III is a large military transport aircraft with unique capabilities, combining the attributes of a strategic airlifter with those of a tactical airlifter.  Currently, C-17 operators plan to operate them until at least the 2070s, which will require extensive engineering support to monitor, modify, repair, and improve the fleet. In support of this goal, C-17 Structures is looking for motivated individuals to join the team to support of the Aircraft Structural Integrity Program. 

A Loads & Dynamics Engineer works as an integral part of the Structures team, providing external flight and ground loads, and fatigue stress spectra.  They collaborate with engineers and leaders from a wide variety of engineering disciplines.

As part of a US Air Force required Aircraft Structural Integrity Program, and the C-17 Sustainment contract, the C-17 Structures group provides all engineering support for the C-17 to the US Air Force and Foreign customers.  This includes administering a tracking program to track individual aircraft structural component life by processing aircraft flight data to develop usage severity.  The results of this effort are closely monitored by the Boeing team and the customers to manage the airplanes’ structural life.  Team members evaluate potential aircraft configuration changes for impact on internal and external loads, and use computational tools to determine structural impacts. Occasional domestic and international travel to interface with customers will be required.

This is an exciting and uncommon opportunity to work on an amazing aircraft with a diverse and dedicated engineering team.  Develop your technical competence as well as your leadership skills on a program with an amazing history and long-term outlook. We’re highly supportive of innovative thinking, we respect and acknowledge hard work, we recognize maturity and integrity, and we reward bottom-line achievement. At Boeing, we value your curiosity, your determination, and your imagination.
