The role requires ensuring that optimum effort is committed to progressive reliability assurance, with the goal of delivering a lean but effective reliability program.
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.

What are we looking for?
- 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.
- Knowledge of reliability planning, analysis and testing during development.
- Proven knowledge of, and experience in, the application of UK and International system engineering processes.
- Good knowledge of complex electronic systems and the associated reliability issues (but other engineering subject areas, such as design, software, manufacture, etc, will be considered for candidates with the right strengths in other areas).
- 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, written communications
- Ideally degree qualified or equivalent
