What are the responsibilities and job description for the Systems Safety Engineer position at Modern Technology Solutions?
Modern Technology Solutions, Inc. (MTSI) is hiring a Systems Safety Engineer in Edwards Air Force Base, CA.
Responsibilities:
Support NASA's X-59 Low Boom Supersonic Aircraft test program.
Facilitate the development, documentation, and implementation of system safety plans for flight and ground operations.
Lead projects through NASA's System Safety Working Group process to capture project risks, classify hazards, and develop acceptable mitigations to minimize operational risks to an acceptable level.
Lead and facilitate system safety and hazard management in an organized, disciplined approach to the identification and mitigation of test safety hazards affecting personnel, hardware, and mission success to an acceptable level.
Provide system safety expertise to the project teams.
Maintain Continuous Risk Management (CRM), capture lessons-learned, and analyze component-level reliability and maintainability.
Manage and lead projects through System Safety Working Group (SSWG) discussions, capture project risks, hazards classification and mitigation formulation.
Develop and maintain project hazard database and support project hazards reporting.
Support review group(s) chartered to provide independent assessments of the project.
Participate in project meetings, configuration control boards, design reviews, and flight readiness reviews
Prepare presentations and present project system safety hazard status in front of NASA center management and/or agency safety review boards as required.
Complete a curriculum of NASA and DoD training to ensure system safety competency required by the various NASA operations.
Qualifications Required:
Minimum 5 years of experience as a project engineer, or project manager
Knowledge of engineering, technology and systems engineering concepts.
Ability to mentor less experienced engineers in specific system safety process and principles.
Exercise a high degree of originality and sound judgment in formulating, evaluating, and correlating broad engineering research concepts, guiding the analysis of unique problems.
Possess innovative thinking, problem-solving, and independent judgment in resolving complex issues.
Prior experience as a technical team member in the development, prototyping and flight testing of unique aerospace systems
Ability to apply safety analysis techniques such as Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) for identifying failure modes in design, manufacturing, assembly, and operations is desirable.
Have a willingness to lead teams to identify, categorize, mitigate, and manage system safety risks (hazards) to personnel, mission systems and supporting systems.
Experience in one or more of the following technology areas: aircraft systems, avionics hardware systems, software design, development and management, real-time systems, Unmanned Aircraft Systems or system test and validation.
Education Requirements:
An accredited bachelor's or master's degrees in Aeronautical, Aerospace, Electronics, Electrical, Chemical, Civil, Mechanical, Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, Electronics Technology, Computer Science, Human Factors, Safety, or Industrial Engineering.
Clearance Requirements:
Must undergo necessary training to acquire the necessary NASA System Safety competency.
Travel Requirements:
Occasional travel within the United States may be required.
