Within BR&T, Boeing’s Solid State Electronics Development organization (SSED) performs microelectronics technology development and design for aerospace systems. We develop digital, analog, and RF Systems on Chip (SoCs) for radar, navigation, electronic warfare, communications, processing, and other electronic systems. These systems are used on Boeing airborne, terrestrial, and satellite platforms. Designs are implemented with state of the art semiconductor process technologies including CMOS, GaAs, GaN, and SiGe. SSED uses external wafer fabrication but performs design (architecture, RTL, synthesis, circuits, physical design, verification), packaging, and test in house. SSED has numerous microelectronics projects, funded both by internal Boeing customers and external Government Science and Technology (S&T) customers, and is nationally recognized in aerospace microelectronics design communities. SSED’s large staff of microelectronics engineers conduct research, design, and test microelectronics hardware in support of these projects.

SSED executes a variety of exciting, technically challenging projects, offering endless opportunities to develop depth and breadth of technical skills. We offer on-the-job learning opportunities and long-term potential for career growth into both technical leadership and/or management positions and seek curiosity, creativity, innovation, attention to detail, clear communication, and the ability to understand and meet customer needs.

We are seeking an experienced engineer to lead microelectronics cryogenic test activities, develop innovative strategies to improve and grow test capability of our group, and to coordinate with labs at other sites. SSED tests custom-designed microelectronics, ranging from characterization test chips to SoCs to integrated chip sets, to include bring up and debug, electrical testing, performance characterization, reliability stresses, radiation testing, and characterization across extreme environments. SSED is expanding our cryogenic test capabilities, including facilities, capital equipment, and test processes, across multiple sites.
