Boeing Space And Intelligence Systems Work Values

Daily Duties at Boeing Space And Intelligence Systems:

Duties were broad and diverse. Responsible for taking the lead with subcontractors to develop and document ground segment requirements flow down. Assisted in the analysis and translation of complex requirements into validation and verification processes. Assured that operational and functional requirements were met during testing. Worked with others to develop program test strategies. Managed performance of critical subcontractors to ensure integration and compliance with requirements. Conducted program independent analysis and results to program leadership as well as to the customer. Conducted research into technology advancements for potential application to company business needs. Provided critical support of ground system software builds over the product development lifecycle. Conducted verification (against requirements) and validation (against specifications) of imaging algorithms. Performed a comprehensive analysis of the ground data image formation process, which utilized legacy and synthetic data. Performed analysis by modeling via MatLAB or a contractor developed Unix based processor simulator. Analyzed performance characteristics such as: point target impulse response, phase non-linearity, spurious response, image intensity uniformity, auto focus, Clutter to Noise, sensor beam pointing error, Geo Location, dynamic range, automatic gain control, pixel resolution, IQ complex data imbalance, and JPEG Compression. Lead in the preparation of the analysis & test plans, trade studies and reports presented to program leadership. Established a set of image quality test cases, scripts, and test/build environments definitions for future regression testing. Lead weekly IPT briefings aimed at solving image quality issues with sub-contractor team members. Lead in the coordination of security issues such as data management and transfer processes.

What they like about Boeing Space And Intelligence Systems:

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
