Job Summary
The Safety Engineer is a key member of a cross-disciplinary team driving the design, development and execution of the pilot control, actuation systems and cockpit solutions programs for the next generation of military and commercial
aircraft. The Safety Engineer works on the development of new products, and the improvement and sustainment of products. Engineering duties will span the entire product lifecycle, from initial design and requirements capture through manufacture and field support. The Safety Engineer will focus on the development, deployment and execution of system safety analysis, systems
safety analysis methods and solutions.

Essential Job Functions
 Performs tasks and analyses in the following areas: Functional Hazard Analysis (FHA), System Safety Analysis (SSA), Risk Assessment, Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), and reliability analysis.
 Understand the complex integration of airplane systems, airplane integration into the operational environment and that the airplane safety deliverables directly feed airplane design and compliance and require extreme
attention to detail as well as a healthy engineering curiosity.
 Safety and Reliability support of reviewing: Design Engineering creation of Design Failure Mode Effect Analysis
(DFMEA) in creation in accordance with applicable standards.
 Responsible for reliability analysis. The Reliability Engineer is responsible for performing reliability predictions (MTBF, MTBUR) by using modern statistical methods and employing industry guidelines and best practices to
analyze and predict risk of failures for flight critical systems.
 Will be an integral member of program Change Control Board's (CCB) to review the preparation of documentation with the end goal of system qualification and product certification of a Safe and Reliable product.
 Support trade studies and proposals for new Aircraft Programs and advise on safety related items.
