Teams across the global Boeing network are transforming how we design and build our products, the systems that enable us to work more efficiently, and the work we do to improve the environmental performance of our products and internal operations.
With more than $3 billion invested annually in research and development, Boeing drives innovation that will transform aerospace and defense as we know it. Making it all possible is the ingenuity and passion Boeing employees and global partners demonstrate when developing innovations that help blaze new trails.
Engineering excellence is core to Boeing’s culture. The work we do across commercial, space, defense and services changes the world, and our engineers are at the forefront.
As a global company, in a global industry, we develop global talent, and we’re committed to attracting the very best people to join our team from across the world. Boeing is hiring across multiple engineering disciplines and at all levels of experience, from recent university graduates to more senior engineers and technical lead engineers to help drive success.

Boeing’s partnership with Cambridge University provides insight into how lightning strikes may affect airplane parts.
With more than a century of aerospace experience, we have the opportunity and responsibility to ensure the next century of flight is safer than the first. Boeing is uniquely positioned to deliver a holistic approach to automation and autonomy solutions for aerospace. Our primary interest in autonomy is to improve the safety of our products.
To address the growing challenges of sustainable, economical and accessible modes of transportation, we are re-imagining the future of flight and mobility. Boeing is focusing on emerging technologies, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) operations and the safe introduction of these vehicles into the airspace—while preserving the flying public’s confidence in air travel.
We’re investing in the future by developing technology in key areas such as Smart Factory, human-robotics collaboration and technology-enabled quality systems to enable breakthrough transformations across our production system.

Engineers demo a new way for manned and unmanned aircraft to talk, and mum is not the word
Boeing has launched a coordinated and integrated approach to all digital efforts to support our next suite of products within a digital ecosystem. The comprehensive digital environment provides stability and predictability and will allow new products, production systems including the supply chain, and the support system to be designed together.
It is an enterprise effort that will shape how we design, build, test and service products far into the future. Model-based engineering production systems will be designed with the same engineering rigor as the airplane itself. This allows us to see how a change in one affects the other and better predict the performance of both.
Our goal is to establish a new paradigm for aerospace manufacturing and ultimately flatten the traditional notion of a learning curve.

Liaison engineers use 3D printing to turn production problems into hands-on solutions — cutting wait times from months to hours.
Boeing’s work in producibility rests on the foundation of our decades-long investment in composite materials and manufacturing. We are embracing and investing in digital innovation and advanced manufacturing techniques to strengthen our production system, deliver on our commitment to quality and safety, and harness productivity enhancements.
We’re investing in the future by developing technology in key areas such as automation, Smart Factory, human-robotics collaboration and technology-enabled quality systems to enable breakthrough transformations across our production system.
