TL;DR · Reliability Engineer Co-op

The Winter 2027 Reliability Engineer Co-op joins the Reliability Engineering team to ensure products meet mission performance requirements and withstand challenging environmental conditions. This role involves supporting Systems, Hardware, and Software Engineering teams throughout the product development lifecycle. Key responsibilities include participating in Failure Modes & Effects Analysis, predictive analysis, qualification test planning, field performance monitoring, and root cause & corrective action activities. You will review system block diagrams, schematics, and interface control documents while performing Weibull analysis and developing maintainability prediction models. Required technical skills include proficiency with engineering first principles and data analysis techniques. You will utilize specific standards like MIL-HDBK-217 Plus and MIL-HDBK-472 to calculate failure rates and Mean Time Between Failure metrics for defense technology systems.

What you'll do

  • Review system block diagrams, interface control documents, and schematics for compliance and accuracy.
  • Identify product risks and lead root cause analysis and corrective action activities.
  • Perform Failure Modes & Effects Analysis (FMEA) to implement product reliability improvements.
  • Conduct predictive reliability analysis to calculate failure rates and Mean Time Between Failure metrics.
  • Develop maintainability prediction models and R&D qualification test plans.
  • Coordinate with Quality and Manufacturing Engineering to establish inspection and acceptance test gates.
  • Perform Weibull analysis using data from qualification campaigns and fielded assets.
  • Use data analysis techniques to identify and resolve problem areas for deployed products.

What we're looking for

  • Must be pursuing a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, Electrical, Systems Engineering, or a related field.
  • Must be returning to school at the end of the internship to continue academic studies for at least one quarter or semester.
  • Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export-controlled information or facilities.
  • Ability to complete an in-person co-op in one of the company's offices in winter 2027.
  • Prior internship experience and/or leadership on a collegiate project team or laboratory (preferred).
  • Demonstrated hands-on fabrication skills (preferred).
  • Exposure to test plan development, data acquisition, data analysis, and failure analysis techniques (preferred).
  • Exposure to reliability analysis techniques such as FMEA/FMECA, predictive modeling, Weibull analysis, and Fault Tree Analysis (preferred).
