Senior Digital Engineer – Full Stack & Systems Architecture

Senior Digital Engineer – Full Stack & Systems Architecture

Company:

The Boeing Company

The Boeing Company is looking for a Senior Digital Engineer – Full Stack & Systems Architecture to join our team in Seattle, WA.

Boeing Test & Evaluation (BT&E) generates enormous volumes of data, but data alone does not create insight. We are building a Digital Engineering capability focused on transforming test intent into reusable knowledge through intuitive applications, scalable systems, and thoughtful architecture. 

As a Digital Engineer – Full Stack & Systems Architecture, you will sit at the intersection of engineering workflows, software systems, and cloud platforms. Your mission is to empower BT&E engineers to work differently by designing and delivering digital products that shorten feedback loops, reduce friction, and accelerate learning from every test event. 

This is not a traditional backend or data‑engineering role. You will design end‑to‑end solutions, working from initial understanding of engineer needs, to shaping application architecture, to implementing full‑stack solutions that integrate data, automation, and cloud services. You will partner closely with BT&E, BCA, BDS, and Wisk/Autonomy engineers to modernize how test data is accessed, explored, and operationalized across Boeing. 

If you enjoy systems thinking, building products engineers actually want to use, and architecting platforms that scale across programs and clouds, this role is for you. 

Position Responsibilities:

Digital Product & Application Development

• Design and develop full stack applications that improve test and evaluation workflows, decision making, and engineering productivity

• Translate ambiguous engineering problems into clear digital solutions, balancing usability, performance, and scalability

• Develop front end and backend services using modern frameworks (e.g., React, Node.js, Python, .NET)

• Design and implement APIs and service interfaces that enable integration across test systems, analytics platforms, and enterprise tools

Systems Architecture & Cloud Engineering

• Architect end to end systems spanning applications, data services, and cloud infrastructure

• Evaluate and select cloud services across AWS and Azure based on cost, usability, scalability, and long term maintainability

• Implement infrastructure as code using Terraform, CloudFormation, ARM, or Bicep to support repeatable, secure deployments

• Design solutions that support multi cloud and hybrid environments as required by program needs

Data Enabled Engineering (as a Platform Capability)

• Design data models and storage solutions that support both transactional systems and analytical workloads

• Build and integrate data services that allow engineers to discover, explore, and reuse test data efficiently

• Collaborate with data scientists and analysts to enable analytics, visualization, and ML workflows without burdening users with infrastructure complexity

DevOps, Reliability & Security

• Build CI/CD pipelines to support rapid iteration, testing, and safe deployment of applications

• Apply SRE principles to ensure reliability, observability, and operational excellence

• Build and maintain observability capabilities—including logs, metrics, and traces—to enable rapid diagnosis, performance optimization, and reliable operation of digital engineering systems

• Partner with security and compliance teams to ensure solutions meet Boeing security, data governance, and regulatory requirements

• Contribute to operational documentation, runbooks, and continuous improvement efforts

Collaboration & Technical Leadership

• Work closely with engineers, product owners, and stakeholders to shape digital roadmaps and technical direction

• Influence architecture and design decisions across programs through systems thinking and engineering judgment

• Collaborate with peers and contribute to a growing Digital Engineering community within BT&E

Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):

• Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering, Engineering Technology (including Manufacturing Technology), Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or non-US equivalent qualifications directly related to the work statement

• 5+ years of experience developing full stack applications with modern frameworks

• Strong systems thinking skills with experience designing end to end software solutions

• Proficiency in one or more programming languages (JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, C#, or Go)

• Experience deploying and operating applications in cloud environments (Azure and/or AWS)

• Hands on experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation, ARM/Bicep)

• Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, Git, Docker, and Linux

• Experience designing and working with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL), including schema design and performance considerations

• Familiarity with security best practices (IAM, secrets management, network controls)

Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):

• Experience designing developer platforms or internal engineering tools

• Background in Digital Engineering, Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), or engineering workflow automation

• Cloud certifications (AWS and/or Azure)

• Experience with Kubernetes, serverless architectures, or event driven systems

• Exposure to data pipelines, analytics platforms, or data enabled applications

• Experience working in regulated or safety critical environments

• Understanding of aerospace, test & evaluation, or large scale engineering programs

• Familiarity with ITAR, EAR, DFARS, or similar compliance frameworks
