What we’re looking for from you:
• Detailed understanding and experience of how hazard analysis and safety evaluation integrate with system engineering processes
• Ability to deliver supporting documentation such as Safety Case Reports, Hazard Analysis, Functional Failure Analysis, FTA, FMECA, reliability prediction, etc.
• Full appreciation that reliability is more than a number, with experience in reliability planning, analysis and testing during development
• Proven knowledge and experience applying UK and International system engineering processes
• Good knowledge of complex electronic systems and associated safety and reliability issues
• Track record as an effective team player with strong interpersonal and influencing skills, capable of working in multi-disciplinary and multi-national teams
