TL;DR · Senior Reliability Engineer

As a Senior Reliability Engineer, you will join the Reliability Engineering team to ensure autonomous systems survive real-world conditions and deliver consistent performance across the entire product lifecycle. You will serve as a reliability champion, collaborating with mechanical, electrical, and software teams to drive design robustness from early concept through production scale-up. Your daily responsibilities include performing predictive reliability analysis, leading Failure Modes & Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), executing qualification and validation test plans, and conducting root-cause failure investigations. You will utilize tools and standards such as MIL-HDBK-217Plus, MIL-HDBK-472, and MIL-STD-810 to conduct Weibull analysis and develop maintainability models. This role addresses the critical challenge of ensuring hardware reliability for safety-critical systems in defense domains including Air Dominance, Maritime, Ground Systems, Space, and Mission Autonomy.

What you'll do

  • Lead Failure Modes & Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) to implement design improvements.
  • Perform predictive reliability analysis to calculate probability of loss of control and determine MTTF/MTBF.
  • Develop and execute comprehensive qualification and validation test plans for environmental, life, and accelerated testing.
  • Collaborate with manufacturing teams to develop and validate assembly, integration, and testing processes.
  • Conduct Weibull analysis on production and field data to predict failures and identify trends.
  • Lead root-cause investigations for anomalies from the factory floor or field to drive corrective actions.
  • Develop maintainability prediction models and support the creation of preventative maintenance and sparing plans.
  • Build and implement standardized reliability processes, tools, and infrastructure to streamline manufacturing and deployment.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum of 8 years experience as a Reliability Engineer, Design/Development Engineer, or Test Engineer.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, or an equivalent technical discipline.
  • Experience with safety-critical hardware and software systems in the defense or aerospace industry.
  • Familiarity with MIL-STD-810, MIL-HDBK-217, MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-516C, and MIL-STD-1629.
  • Expertise in reliability analysis techniques including FMEA/FMECA, predictive modeling, Weibull analysis, and Fault Tree Analysis.
  • Experience establishing reliability frameworks for products, including support of production testing, field testing, and data analysis.
  • Proven experience in failure investigation, root cause analysis, and executing qualification and validation test plans.
  • Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret clearance.
