Job Summary
Aerospace Systems Safety Engineer
TheAerospace Engineer - SystemsSafety IIIis aroleresponsible forsupporting the focal systems engineer indesign developmentanddirectly responsiblefor thesafety assessmentsofaircraftssystemsand/or components. This position requires a mastery of the first principles of designing for safety allowing the engineer to apply theappropriate levelof rigor to both certified civilaircraftprograms and non-certified rapid prototyping projects. The role requires significant exercise of independent discretion and judgment in matters of significance.
Job Duties and Responsibilities (Essential Functions):
Safety Analysis & Requirements Engineering
Generate and manage safety requirements atappropriate levelsto ensure design integrity.
Create validation and verification (V&V) plans specifically for safety requirements.
Assess complianceofsystems components and installations against safety requirements.
Conduct comprehensive safety analysesin accordance withSAE ARP4761A including:
Aircraftand System Functional Hazard Assessments (AFHA/SFHA).
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA/FMECA) and Summary (FMES).
Preliminary System Safety Assessments (PSSA) and System Safety Assessments (SSA) includingFault Tree Analyses (FTA) at the unit system andaircraftlevels.
Common Cause Analysis (CCA) including Zonal Safety Analysis (ZSA) Particular Risk Analysis (PRA) and Common Mode Analysis (CMA).
Understand theinterdependenciesbetween safety artifacts and other engineering activities (e.g. requirements design and testing) within the product development lifecycle.
Communicatethe systemneeds tointernal and external consumers of the design
Knowledge of the system engineering development process including requirements development and management per SAE ARP4754B.
Experience working in safety-specific tools such as CAFTA or RELEX as well as Microsoft Office (Intermediate Excelrequired).
Certification & Compliance
Build safety artifactsrequiredto show compliance for certification of civilaircraftunder 14 CFR Parts 23 25 27 and/or 29.
Review and supportdevelopment andexecuteCertification Plans.
Coordinate with certification authorities to seek clarification on requirements.
Review certification guidance material (e.g. Advisory Circulars) and incorporate necessary guidance into safety strategies.
Participate in Systems Design Reviews to ensure safety is integrated from conceptual design through final integration.
Analyze mechanical or system failures todetermineroot cause and develop corrective actions based on safety principles.
Customer Interaction &Supplier Technical Oversight
Coordinate withcustomers andsuppliers to review technical data safety processes and design compliance.
Communicate system safety needs and constraints to both internal and external design consumers.
Compare design solutions specifically through the lens of safety and risk mitigation.
