As a reliability engineer, understanding the system and its operating context is crucial to mitigating reliability risks. The goal is to ensure a convincing reliability case is constructed, while balancing time and cost constraints. This role requires pragmatism and a solid appreciation that reliability results from good engineering, not just compliance with numerical targets and ensuring the customer's satisfaction by using a range of techniques and approaches to provide the most cost‑effective evidence. The role requires ensuring that optimum effort is committed to progressive reliability assurance, with the goal of delivering a lean but effective reliability program.
Qualifications
* Good knowledge of complex electronic systems and the associated reliability issues (but other engineering subject areas may be considered for candidates with the right strengths in other areas).
* Ability to deliver Reliability Case Reports and the supporting information (FMECA, reliability prediction, etc). Experience of more recent reliability prediction methodologies, such as FIDES, would be an advantage.
* Fully appreciates that reliability is not just a number, and has experience of reliability planning, analysis and testing during development.
* Demonstrable knowledge of the relationship between the reliability life‑cycle and the system engineering processes.
* Track record as an effective teammate with strong interpersonal and influencing skills and the ability to work as part of a multi‑disciplinary/multi‑national team.
* Analytical and problem solving skills.
* Good verbal and written communications skills.
* Ideally degree qualified or equivalent.
