Systems Reliability Engineer - All Levels

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Define system-level reliability goals, risk-based verification priorities, and failure-focused evaluation criteria for autonomous weapon platforms — reasoning from first principles (physics of failure and the operating…
• Identify reliability-critical tests, stress cases, and operating conditions needed to expose failure modes before fielding.
• Analyze test and field data to identify failure modes, performance limits, degradation patterns, and reliability risks, and translate results into clear technical conclusions and recommended actions.
• Lead structured root-cause investigations for reliability failures across electrical, mechanical, software, and controls interfaces.
• Develop methods for reliability trending, failure categorization, and corrective-action tracking so the team can measure reliability growth over time.
• Support requirements verification by ensuring reliability risks, failure criteria, and hazard-informed concerns are reflected in system requirements and verification methods.
• Work with systems, mechanical, electrical, and software engineers to improve design robustness, observability, maintainability, and failure tolerance.
• Help define corrective actions, retest plans, and closure criteria for reliability-related issues.
