Systems Safety Engineer

The System Safety Engineer ensures the safety and reliability of complex systems by identifying hazards, assessing risks, and implementing mitigation strategies throughout the system lifecycle.

• Align identified hazards and safety-significant functions to the implementing systems, subsystems, hardware, software, and communications.
• Develop and maintain traceability between hazards, safety requirements, design elements, mitigations, and verification evidence.
• Support identification and classification of Safety Significant Functions (SSF) and implementing items.
• Support development and management of Software Control Categories (SCC) and Software Criticality Indices (SwCI).
• Support maturation and maintenance of the FHA and Hazard Tracking System (HTS) as the vehicle design evolves.
• Evaluate system architecture and proposed design controls against identified hazards and required risk reduction.
• Work with third-party suppliers to review and assess safety-case evidence and determine whether supplier safety arguments, analyses, assumptions, and constraints adequately address the safety responsibilities of the supplied component or subsystem.
• Identify gaps between supplier safety evidence and vehicle-level safety requirements.
