Safety, Reliability, and Maintainability (SRaM) Engineer

Your mission

• Develop and maintain system and aircraft-level safety assessments in accordance with ARP4761 and ARP4754A (e.g., FHA, PSSA, SSA, CMA).

• Perform Functional Hazard Assessments (FHA) and System Safety Assessments (SSA) to support certification and design reviews.

• Support fault tree analysis (FTA), failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA/FMECA), and common cause analyses (CCA).

• Contribute to the development and review of Certification Plans, Safety Plans, and System Safety Program Plans (SSPP).

• Interface with airworthiness authorities (e.g. EASA, FAA, military) for certification-related safety work.

• Perform quantitative reliability predictions using tools such as Reliasoft, Windchill, or MIL-HDBK-217.

• Develop system and LRU reliability models and conduct Failure Reporting, Analysis and Corrective Action Systems (FRACAS) processes.

• Monitor and report Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), Mean Time Between Removals (MTBR), and other KPIs.

• Analyze field data and in-service feedback to identify trends and areas for improvement.

• Conduct maintainability analysis, including Mean Time To Repair (MTTR), fault isolation, access analysis, and Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) architecture assessments.

• Support the development of Maintenance Task Analyses (MTA) and Maintenance Manuals (e.g. AMM, CMM).

• Contribute to the Logistics Support Analysis (LSA), Level of Repair Analysis (LORA), and Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) deliverables.

• Work closely with production, customer support, and aftermarket teams to improve maintainability and reduce lifecycle costs.
