About the role

The Boeing Company is currently seeking an Composite Technical Analyst to support our Composite Materials & Structures (CMS) team located in North Charleston, SC. Our teams are currently hiring for a broad range of experience levels including: Associate, and Experienced level Composite Technical Analyst.

CMS is a research and development organization within the Engineering & Technology Innovation (E&TI) division focused on technology development of composite fabrication techniques and next generation material systems. The team matures technology through testing, analysis, and demonstration for the intent of transitioning to existing or future Boeing platforms. In our state-of-the-art composite fabrication labs, our engineers and technical analysts lead and execute a variety of composite materials & fabrication development projects, transforming ideas into reality. We work closely with other E&TI groups, Boeing Commercial Airlines (BCA) Product Development (PD), BCA Airplane Program teams, and Boeing Defense & Space counterparts to identify, develop and transition technology needs to Boeing products.

As a Composites Technical Analyst, you will work both independently and collaborate with experienced peers to conduct hands-on composite material testing and analysis, fabricate developmental parts and/or test articles, and execute laboratory operations to support the use of new materials, processes, and tools in the engineering and manufacture of products. The chosen candidate will be motivated, self-driven and will have excellent written and verbal communication skills. The ideal candidate will possess strong experience in structural testing (ex. tension/compression testing), hand layup of composite materials, and other composite forming/fabrication processes.

This is an on-site position, and you will be expected to spend most of your time in a laboratory environment. We are a collaborative team, therefore you will work with cross-functional teammates including Material Processes & Physics (MP&P) Engineers, Design & Structural Engineers, Quality Engineers & Inspectors, Test Engineers & Operators, Assembly Mechanics, and support teams, so a collaborative attitude and the willingness to work together are vital to our team's success.
