Procedure; Environment - Non Weather Related
We were departing EFD on the MMALT1.LLA SID and were climbing out of FL290 for FL410 when ATC re-cleared us to level at FL350. We leveled at FL350 approximately 40 NM before LLA. Within a few minutes of level off we noticed a B737 pass to our right (left to right) at FL360 (west bound) and approximately 5 NM horizontally. Shortly there after we had a violent wing rock that lasted about 1 second and instantaneously banked and leveled the aircraft twice (approximately 15-20 degrees of bank). It was smooth before and smooth after the event. We reported the event to Houston Center who informed us a B737 had just passed above us at FL360.
Falcon 50 Captain reported wake vortex encounter at FL350 from a B737 crossing his course at FL360 that resulted in a 'violent wing rock'.
