System Safety Engineer

We are seeking a System Safety Engineer to join our team. As a System Safety Engineer, you will primarily support a vehicle-based radar development program, but you will also have the opportunity to support multiple efforts simultaneously.

Your responsibilities will involve analysing the systems hardware and software safety to the operator and equipment in accordance with MIL-STD-882. You will work independently, coordinating with other Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) on these efforts, defining your own tasking derived from customer needs and contractual documents.

You will be required to produce different specific safety artifacts, including hazard tracking, mitigation, and regular reporting to the customer via deliverables. You will lead the prime contractor system safety working group, engaging the customer and working hand-in-hand with the program's systems engineers and human factors engineers to ensure system compliance and verify customer needs are met.

This role offers the opportunity to make a significant impact on critical defense programs while developing expertise across multiple concurrent efforts.

• Experience conducting hazard analyses (PHA, FHA, SHA, SSHA, O&SHA, EHA, HHA, FTA, FMEA).
• Proficiency with safety tools and databases (e.g., hazard tracking systems, model-based systems engineering, requirement databases).
• Demonstrated experience effectively leading a team of engineers.
• Demonstrated experience accurately estimating the engineering effort (i.e. hours) associated with System Safety Engineering tasks.
• Understanding of the DoD acquisition processes and methods.
• Experience supporting one or more DoD programs.
