About the role

  • Analyze and predict the reliability of military systems and equipment by identifying potential failure modes
  • Conducting root cause analysis and implementing design improvements to ensure mission success by maximizing system uptime and minimizing failures throughout the lifecycle
  • Adhering to strict customer driven reliability standards and guidelines
  • Reduce cost and schedule risks by preventing or identifying R&M deficiencies early in development. This early action results in increased acquisition efficiency and higher success rates during operational testing and the development process
  • Conducts aerospace Reliability and Maintainability analysis
  • Supports R&M Program Plan Reliability Predictions following MIL-HDBK-217 and/or 217PLUS reliability prediction standards
  • Conducts Failure Modes and Effects (FMEA) / Criticality Analysis (CA)
  • Planning and conducting reliability testing, including Highly Accelerated Life Test (HALT), Reliability Enhancement Test (RET), Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) or Highly Accelerated Stress Screening (HASS)
  • Runs Failure Reporting, Analysis and Corrective Action System (FRACAS), including root cause analysis
  • Maintainability analysis and predictions
  • Built-In Test (BIT) design/verification analysis
  • BIT / Maintainability Demonstration
  • Failure analysis: Performing detailed investigations into equipment failures to identify root causes and implement corrective actions
  • Reliability prediction: Utilizing statistical methods and reliability modeling tools to predict the likelihood of system failures and identify critical components
  • Design review: Collaborating with design engineers to assess the reliability of proposed designs and suggest improvements to enhance system robustness
  • FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis): Conducting FMEA to proactively identify potential failure modes and their consequences, prioritizing mitigation strategies
  • Stress analysis: Performing stress analysis on components to identify potential weak points and design margins
  • Data analysis: Collecting and analyzing failure data to identify trends and patterns, informing preventative maintenance strategies
  • Reliability testing: Designing and executing reliability tests to validate system performance under various environmental conditions
  • Maintainability analysis: Contributing to design decisions to ensure easy maintenance and repair of equipment in the field
  • Life cycle cost analysis: Assessing the impact of reliability on system life cycle costs

Requirements

  • Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and minimum 2 years of prior relevant experience or an Advanced Degree in a related field
  • The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued Secret Security Clearance is required.
