Job description

font-family:”>Works closely with engineering and program teams to provide technical leadership in reliability analysis, identify product performance trends, and drive continuous improvement across design, manufacturing, and support environments. The role maintains and codes databases that track production and inservice performance of both commercial and military aerospace and transportation platforms, and collaborates with the Product Support/ILS Engineering Unit on reliability predictions, electricalstress and derating analysis, provisioningTfile analysis, maintainability analysis, and the generation of technical publications., 1. Reliability Program Delivery Manage the endtoend production of all reliability program analysis documents.

  1. Proposal & Cost Analysis Review RFPs/RFQs to determine reliability requirements; provide inputs for cost and logistics projections.
  2. Customer & Vendor Relations Proactively lead relationships with internal and external stakeholders to secure program opportunities and ensure alignment with customer expectations.
  3. Logistics & Support Management Oversee budgets, schedules, and costaccounting for supportability and logistics tasks; develop and maintain support and services plans for all supported programs.
  4. Design Influence & Logistics Innovation Lead systemdesign discussions focusing on logistics innovations that reduce LifeCycle Cost (LCC) and Total Ownership Cost (TOC).
  5. Technical Tradeoffs Develop and review PSA, LPD, LCC, LORA, and supportsystem tradeoff analyses; ensure Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) address total logistics impact.
  6. Process Improvement Continuously improve reliability processes, ensuring compliance with ISO9001 and emerging standards such as ISO14224, EN497, and IEC61508.
  7. CyberReliability & Functional Safety Assess reliability impact of cyberthreats and functional safety concerns; coordinate with cybersecurity teams to embed resilience in design.
  8. Data Analytics & Automation Lead the adoption of Python/R, SQL, PowerBI, and automated failuremode tools to mine telemetry, build predictive models, and generate realtime dashboards.
  9. Lean Six Sigma & Cost Analysis Apply DMAIC methodology to rootcause analyses, reduce MTBF improvements, and lower operational costs.
  10. Professional Development Encourage pursuit of industry certifications (CRE, CRL) and continuous learning in emerging reliability domains.
