Over the course of the 10-12 week summer program you will have the opportunity to:

• Work directly with a mentor in your field of study while finding solutions to real world challenges

This position is part of the rapidly growing Electro-Optical (EO) / Infra-Red (IR) Mission Systems team within BR&T. We're designing, building, and testing cutting edge sensor systems for airborne and space platforms.

Our team provides complete engineering solutions to Boeing and its customers, including systems engineering, optics design, mechanical design, algorithms, software development, firmware development, electronics, and advanced system modeling and simulations. This position will involve working with optical designs and modeling and simulation for space-based systems. If you're interested in working in a fast pace environment while taking a design from clean sheet of paper through flight demonstration, ideally with some technology that's never been flown before, then this is the group for you.
This position is expected to be 100% onsite. The selected candidate will be required to work onsite at one of the listed location options.
