TL;DR · Reliability Engineer

As a Reliability Engineer at Lockheed Martin, you will join the Reliability & Test Engineering Team as a mid-level professional responsible for ensuring that all components and sub-assemblies meet stringent reliability standards through comprehensive FMECA analyses and accelerated aging tests. Your daily tasks include developing detailed test plans to identify and mitigate risks early in product development cycles, collaborating closely with design engineers, material scientists, and program managers to implement reliability-driven design improvements. You will create and maintain component-level FMECA worksheets, define accelerated life test objectives using models like Arrhenius or Coffin-Manson, and analyze data to update reliability models. Proficiency in MIL STD 1629A and other relevant standards is essential, along with experience using tools such as ReliaSoft, Weibull++, and statistical software like Minitab or Python. This role involves working on high-stakes aerospace and defense systems where reliability is paramount, requiring strong communication skills to convey findings to cross-functional teams and senior leadership.

What you'll do

  • Conduct Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analyses (FMECA) for components.
  • Develop accelerated aging test programs to validate product lifecycle performance.
  • Identify failure modes and root causes affecting system reliability.
  • Assign criticality rankings and document mitigation strategies for identified risks.
  • Analyze test data and update reliability models based on findings.
  • Communicate reliability insights and recommendations to cross-functional teams.
  • Support design reviews by providing reliability-focused architectural input.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related technical field
  • 1-3 years of hands-on reliability engineering experience with expertise in FMECA and accelerated aging tests
  • Strong root cause analysis, risk assessment, and data interpretation skills; proficiency with reliability standards like MIL STD 1629A
  • Knowledge of failure physics, degradation mechanisms, and material behavior under stress
  • Ability to develop and interpret test plans using ASTM, IEC, or MIL methods
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills for presenting findings to cross-functional teams and senior leadership
