Participate in verification and validation activities to ensure compliance with RAMS requirements and standards. Collaborate with external stakeholders, including regulatory bodies and certification agencies, to ensure compliance with applicable industry regulations and standards. Provide technical support and expertise in RAMS-related matters to project teams, management, and customers. Stay up to date with industry advancements, best practices, and emerging trends in RAMS engineering, applying them to enhance the reliability, availability, maintainability, and safety MIURA 5 program. Support safety submission process with Launch Range authority. Perform trade-offs and redundancy optimization studies. Generate documentation for formal program development reviews. Necessary Requirements Engineering bachelor's degree or demonstrable relevant experience in lieu thereof. Advanced degree preferred. > 5 years of relevant technical experience. Strong understanding of RAMS principles, methodologies, and techniques. Knowledge of reliability analysis methods, such as FMEA and FTA. Familiarity with safety analysis techniques, including hazard analysis and risk assessment. Understanding of systems engineering concepts and practices. Knowledge of relevant industry standards and regulations related to RAMS, such as ISO 9001, ISO 26262, MIL-STD-882, ECSS-Q-ST-30 – Dependability and ECSS-Q-ST-40 – Safety. Proficiency in using RAMS software tools and simulation software. Analytical thinking and problem-solving skills to assess complex systems and identify potential reliability and safety issues. Strong attention to detail and accuracy in analyzing data and performing risk assessments. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams and effectively convey RAMS concepts to stakeholders. Ability to work independently and take ownership of RAMS activities throughout the project lifecycle. Time management and organizational skills to meet project deadlines and manage multiple tasks simultaneously. Strong documentation skills to create clear and comprehensive RAMS reports and documentation. Desired Requirements Experience in RAMS engineering for the aerospace industry. Familiarity with software reliability engineering and analysis. Knowledge of fault-tolerant design principles and techniques. Understanding of statistical analysis methods for reliability prediction and modeling. Experience with RAMS-related regulatory compliance and certification processes. Certification in RAMS engineering or related fields. French B2-C1. Health & Wellness: We want you to be happy and healthy in body and mind.
