  • Conduct and document safety assessments such as Preliminary Hazard Analysis (PHA), Subsystem Hazard Analysis (SHA), System Hazard Analysis (SHA), and Functional Hazard Assessment
  • Develop verification plans and support related test activity, including analyzing data and developing required artifacts
  • Collaborate with various engineering teams to embed safety features and fault tolerance into the design process

Requirements

  • Candidate must be a US Citizen and meet eligibility to obtain (and maintain) a Secret Clearance
  • Bachelor's Degree in a STEM discipline and at least 5 years of experience in a similar role
  • Demonstrated familiarity with MIL-STD-882E and its application to system safety programs
  • Experience working with (or developing) safety tools and databases (e.g., hazard tracking systems, model-based systems engineering, requirement databases)
