Reliability Engineer Sr - E3

Develops, coordinates and conducts technical reliability studies and evaluations of engineering design concepts and design of experiments (doe) constructs. Recommends design or test methods and statistical process control procedures for achieving required levels of product reliability. Compiles and analyzes performance reports and process control statistics; investigates and analyzes relevant variables potentially affecting product and processes. Ensures that corrective measures meet acceptable reliability standards. Analyzes preliminary plans and develops reliability engineering programs to achieve company, customer and governmental agency reliability objectives. May develop mathematical models to identify units, batches or processes posing excessive failure risks. As necessary, proposes changes in design or formulation to improve system and/or process reliability. May determine units and/or batches requiring environmental testing, and specifies minimum number of samples to obtain statistically valid data.

You will be the Maintainability Engineering Sr. for the Air Launched Rapid Response Weapon (ARRW) - Increment 2 team. Our team is responsible for delivering world class Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, and Testability (RAMT) services that ensure the weapon system meets stringent performance and schedule goals throughout development and test.

What You Will Be Doing

As the Maintainability Engineering Sr., you will drive RAMT planning and execution for ARRW Increment 2. You’ll partner closely with design engineers, suppliers, program managers, and customers to embed reliability and testability into the hardware from concept through production.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Develop and validate reliability predictions for mechanical and electrical designs using WQS/Relex or approved methods.
• Lead Built In Test (BIT) strategy: analysis, implementation, and verification across the system.
• Conduct RAMT activities such as failure mode, effects, and criticality analyses (FMECA), HALT testing, and BIT demonstrations.
