  • Experience with reliability engineering for electrical components and circuit card assemblies.
  • Knowledge of systems engineering practices throughout the product lifecycle.
  • Experience in design, development, integration, or testing – preferably with aerospace hardware or sophisticated technical systems.
  • Experience performing system safety and reliability analyses, such as: Functional Hazard Assessments (FHA), Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Reliability Block Diagrams (RBDs).
  • Experience with Weibull analysis and parameter estimation, stress-strength interference analyses, probability distribution estimation, reliability growth modeling, and probabilistic risk analysis.
