Associate or Mid-level Aerospace Systems Safety Engineer

Boeing Boeing · Aerospace · Everett, WA

Associate or Mid-level Aerospace Systems Safety Engineer responsible for ensuring safety analyses are properly conducted using airplane-level integration skills, understanding complex integration of airplane systems, human factors, and operational integration. Role involves documenting safety analyses, hazard mitigation, validation, and verification in compliance with regulatory standards.

What you'd actually do

  1. Analyze the integration of complex airplane systems and their corresponding airplane-level effects, failure indications, and flight crew actions as part of a system of systems analysis
  2. Contribute by documenting safety analyses, hazard mitigation, validation, and verification activities in compliance with relevant customer and regulatory safety standards
  3. Support the definition and validation of safety, mission success, and airworthiness; provide support for incorporating these elements into designs, operations, and procedures
  4. Participate in tests, analyses, inspections, audits, and simulations to verify that systems meet defined safety and mission assurance requirements
  5. Assist with creating and maintaining aerospace safety and mission assurance tools and processes
