Aircraft System Safety Engineer

Were more than aviation experts, were pioneers. We challenge whats 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 Armys 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 aircraft.

Aircraft System Safety, FLRAA

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 customers aircraft.

What youll 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 systems safety requirements and develop safety analysis artifacts to ensure design integrity and safety.
• Administer systems 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 systems safety engineering.
• Extensive communication of systems 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 customers system safety objectives.
• Support Bells Safety Management System (SMS) for the control, management and tracking of program risks.
• Establishing software safety requirements in accordance with the appropriate standards and evaluating the functional impacts of noncompliance in coordination with software safety engineers, design subject matter experts (SMEs), suppliers, and the customer as required.
