Responsibilities include conducting hazard analyses, developing and verifying safety requirements, supporting system safety assessments (e.g., AFHA, SFHA, PASA, PSSA, FMECA), collaborating with cross-functional teams and stakeholders, and applying model-based systems and safety engineering practices. The role requires expertise in SAE ARP4761 and MIL-STD-882 standards, structured safety programs, software safety lifecycle processes, and strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills to manage complex, integrated aircraft systems.

• Education & Job Requirements
• A minimum of 2 plus years of experience on aircraft or system development/sustainment programs that have utilized structured safety program processes or plans.
• A Bachelor’s degree in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) field.?
• Related degrees with relevant experience, such as military rotorcraft/powered life aviator or mechanic qualification, will be considered.
• Advanced degrees will be considered as additional experience
• Must have experience with software safety standards and requirements across the full development lifecycle from hazard identification through development to system/software qualification test is desired (e.g., DO-178C, MIL-STD-822, AMCOM385-17, Joint Software Safety Engineering Handbook)
• Proven analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work with cross-functional teams in resolving complex, highly integrated functional systems problems.
• Must be familiar with the civil safety process defined in Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) ARP-4761 and ARP-4754, and/or defense safety process defined in MIL-STD-882.
• Experience or training in thedevelopment and application of model-based systems engineering (MBSE) and model-based safety analysis (MBSA) is desired.
• Excellent communicator, able to build and maintain effective relationships with customers, internal and external, and brief leaders/customers.
• Technical and functional understanding of aircraft and aircraft systems.
• Operational understanding of aircraft, aircraft systems, and related support systems is highly desirable.
• Must have direct experience in SAE ARP4761 analyses:
• Aircraft and System Functional Hazard Assessments (AFHA/SFHAs)
• Aircraft and System Safety Assessment (PASA, PSSA, ASA, SSA)
• Particular Risk Analysis (PRA)
• Zonal Safety Analysis (ZSA)
• Common Mode Analysis (CMA)
• Direct Experience in MIL-STD-882 analyses:
• Preliminary Hazard Analysis (PHA)
• Operational & Support Hazard Analysis (O&SHA)
• Health Hazard Analysis (HHA)
• System/Subsystem Hazard Analysis (SHA/SSHA)
• Hazardous Materials
• Failure Modes and Effects Criticality Analyses (FMECA)
• Safety Assessment Report (SAR)

• Job Duties/Functions
• Conduct Hazard Analysis: Identify and evaluate potential hazards in aircraft systems and subsystems throughout the product lifecycle.
• Develop Safety Requirements: Define and verify system safety requirements, creating safety analysis artifacts to ensure design integrity and compliance.
• Administer Safety Activities: Oversee system safety efforts for assigned program Integrated Product Teams (IPTs), ensuring effective safety engineering practices.
• Collaborate with Stakeholders: Interface with customers and IPT members on safety-related issues, providing expertise and guidance.
• Monitor Safety Performance: Track and resolve system safety engineering issues, ensuring continuous improvement and adherence to safety standards.
• Communicate Safety Analyses: Present system safety engineering approaches and analysis results to internal and external stakeholders.
• Support Model-Based Engineering: Assist in the development and application of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and Model-Based Safety Analysis (MBSA) practices.
• Contribute to Safety Management System: Support Client’s Safety Management System (SMS) for controlling, managing, and tracking program risks.
• Establish Software Safety Requirements: Define software safety criteria and evaluate the functional impacts of noncompliance.
