About the Job
System Safety Engineer
Description
We’re more than aviation experts, we’re pioneers. We challenge what’s possible. From breaking the sound barrier to advanced tiltrotor systems. Today, Bell is shaping the future of aviation through specialized engineering. And we want you.
We are developing the future of Army Aviation with the Bell Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) as part of the US Army’s Future Vertical Lift (FVL) modernization effort. We are also developing the Bell 525 Relentless, and Bell's High-Speed Vertical Take-Off and Landing (HSVTOL) program, a next generation stop-fold tilt-rotor. This position is onsite in Fort Worth however, exceptions for alternate work arrangements may be considered.
System Safety
System Safety Engineering is the key element of Systems Engineering that provides a standardized methodology for the management of lifecycle risks.System Safety Engineers work with engineers across all the integrated product teams that design, test, produce, refine, and improve our aircraft as well as with the pilots who fly our products and the maintenance personnel who troubleshoot, service and maintain the aircraft and subsystems, to identify, evaluate, monitor, and control risk.This role integrates the detailed analysis of aircraft systems and functional relationships with an in depth understanding of how the aircraft is operated and how its subsystems are employed to perform the mission.The System Safety Engineer minimizes operational risks for the customer and maximizes the successful operational employment of our customer’s aircraft.
What you’ll be doing as a System Safety Engineer
+ Ensure effective Systems Safety Engineering efforts are conducted through identification and analysis of potential hazards from concept definition through development, production, product fielding and lifetime sustainment.
+ Identify and evaluate hazards both qualitatively and quantitatively.Perform detailed analysis of aircraft systems and subsystems, their functioning, crew and maintenance operating procedures and practices, and the operational environment to identify hazard severity and quantify probability of occurrence or qualitatively estimate hazard frequencies.
+ Plan, define and verify System Safety requirements and develop Safety Analysis artifacts to ensure design integrity and safety.
+ Administer System Safety activities for assigned program Integrate Product Teams (IPTs). Interface with the customer and IPT Teammates on safety related issues. Monitor, investigate, and resolve issues relative to System Safety Engineering.
+ Communicate system safety engineering approach, industry and Bell best practices, and analyses results to internal and external customers to ensure all hazards are identified and mitigated effectively. Mentor fellow engineers as needed based on your expertise and experience.
+ Support the development and application of model-based systems engineering (MBSE) and model-based safety analysis (MBSA) practices to meet customer’s system safety objectives.
+ Support Bell’s Safety Management System for the control, management and tracking of program risks.
Skills You Bring To this Role
+ Proven analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work with cross functional teams in resolving complex highly integrated functional systems problems.
+ Familiarity with the civil safety process defined in Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) ARP-4761 and ARP-4754 and/or defense safety process defined in MIL-STD-882.
+ Experience in the development and execution of System and Software System Safety Program Plans.
+ Working knowledge and experience developing/applying aviation system safety analysis techniques/methods including, but not limited to, Functional Hazard Assessments, Fault Tree Analysis, Preliminary System Safety Assessment, Particular Risk Analysis, Zonal Analysis, Common Mode Analysis, Aircraft Safety Assessment, Operational & Support Hazard Analysis, Health Hazard Analysis, System Hazard Analysis, and Safety Assessment Report.
+ Experience or training in thedevelopment and application of model-based systems engineering (MBSE), and model-based safety analysis (MBSA) is desired.
+ Experience with system software safety is desired.
+ Excellent communicator, able to build and maintain effective relationships with customers, internal and external, and brief leaders/customers.
+ Technical and functional understanding of aircraft and aircraft systems.
+ Operational understanding of aircraft, aircraft systems, and related support systems is highly desirable.
+ Certified helicopter/powered lift pilot or aircraft mechanic qualifications are highly desirable.
Qualifications
What you need to be successful
+ We are for looking someone who understands the enormity of the customer’s mission and brings an innate passion for the customer’s safety and success to the workplace every day.
+ Bachelor's Degree in science, technology, engineering or math (STEM) field.Related degrees with relevant experience such as military rotorcraft/powered life aviator or mechanic qualification will be considered.
+ Advanced degrees will be considered as additional experience.
+ 2 years of System Safety or related experience is required.
What we offer you in return
+ You’ll be off every other Friday with our 9/80 work schedule
+ 80 hours of Personal Time Off (PTO)
+ 120 hours Vacation time
+ 12-13 paid holidays per year
+ 6 weeks parental leave (remove for bargained employees)
+ Tuition reimbursement
+ Competitive salary
+ Comprehensive health insurance
+ On-site clinic, pharmacy, physical therapy, and licensed counselor
+ Access to more than 11 Employee Resource Groups
+ And so much more
It’s time to make your mark on the future of aviation. Join us on this mission, and let’s make history together.
_We are on a journey to amplify innovation, cultivate purpose and bridge experiences by fostering a culture that is driven by unique perspectives, voices and values._
