Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) is seeking Associate Industrial Engineers to join the Electronics Center of Excellence and Patriot Advanced Capability (PAC-3) program team located in Huntsville, AL at the Jetplex facility.

The Electronic Center of Excellence (ExCoE) builds circuit card assemblies for 18 programs across the Boeing weapons portfolio. The ExCoE is a high rate production factory, which builds 40+ circuit card assemblies daily.

The Patriot Advanced Capability (PAC-3) program is an air-defense, missile system designed to counter tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and advanced aircraft where Boeing is the original engineering manufacturer of the seeker. Boeing’s seekers provide active data to the PAC-3 missile which enables it to acquire, intercept and destroy threats using hit-to-kill technology.

The ExCoE and PAC-3 Seeker teams are cross functional, highly skilled, motivated groups, embracing the beliefs that focused safety, execution, LEAN manufacturing and business practices will secure our future and well-being, driving our products.
