WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING:

As a Safety & Reliability engineer you will ensure that the Safety & Reliability attributes of our Civil Aerospace products, through all phases of their lifecycle, are understood and the risks arising from them are managed to an acceptable level. Tasks will include:

• Evaluation of propulsion system safety using techniques such as Failure Modes Effects & Criticality Analysis (FMECA), Fault Tree and Event Tree analysis.
• Numerical analysis of in-service products utilising probabilistic and statistical data analysis.
• Analysing and quantifying risks associated with human / system interaction including Human Reliability Assessment.
• Investigating and reviewing failed components and deriving root cause.
• Feeding back lessons learnt from service findings to influence future product design.
• Helping to build the safety cases for new and future engine programmes.
• Supporting and influencing decision making through sound engineering and numerical reasoning.
• Implementing the Safety Management System including membership of the Product Safety Review Boards.
• Contributing towards evaluation and exploitation of new and emerging capability in the field of Safety & Reliability.

In addition, the following role specific skills are preferred:

• Qualification to degree level in a STEM subject and with experience in a relevant engineering environment (Mechanical, Aeronautical, etc).
• Good holistic approach to problem solving
• Analytical and logical approach.
• Familiarity with the design, operation and environment of gas turbine engines.
• Knowledge / experience of Safety & Reliability engineering techniques including numerical analysis
