Job Description - Aircraft System Safety Engineer (335042)
Job Number:
335042 We’re more than aviation experts, we’re pioneers. We challenge what’s 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. The MV-75 Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) is the premier vertical lift military program in the world. Bell's MV-75 FLRAA aircraft will become the Army's primary assault aircraft for the next 30 years, replacing UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters and enhancing the Army's assault capabilities. The program employs cutting-edge technology to expand the United States Army’s tactical advantage in future conflicts. The Bell MV-75 team seeks top engineering talents worldwide to design, develop, and deliver the next-generation military aircraft. Aircraft System Safety, FLRAA System Safety Engineering is a key element of Systems Engineering, providing a standardized methodology for managing lifecycle risks. System Safety Engineers collaborate with engineers across all integrated product teams that design, test, produce, refine, and improve aircraft, as well as with pilots and maintenance personnel, to identify, evaluate, monitor, and control risks. This role involves detailed analysis of aircraft systems and functional relationships, combined with an understanding of aircraft operation and subsystem employment during missions. The System Safety Engineer aims to minimize operational risks for the customer and maximize operational success of the aircraft. Responsibilities include: Ensuring effective system safety engineering efforts through hazard identification and analysis from concept to sustainment. Qualitative and quantitative hazard evaluation, including detailed analysis of systems, subsystems, procedures, and operational environment. Defining and verifying system safety requirements and developing safety artifacts to ensure design integrity. Managing safety activities within assigned programs and interfacing with customers and internal teams on safety issues. Communicating safety approaches, industry best practices, and analysis results clearly to internal and external stakeholders; mentoring engineers as needed. Supporting the development of model-based systems engineering (MBSE) and safety analysis (MBSA) practices. Contributing to Bell’s Safety Management System (SMS) for risk management. Establishing software safety requirements and evaluating their impacts in coordination with software safety engineers and stakeholders. Required Skills and Qualifications: Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with cross-functional collaboration experience. Familiarity with SAE ARP-4761, ARP-4754, and MIL-STD-882 safety processes. Experience with SAE ARP-4761 analyses (e.g., AFHA, SFHA, PASA, PSSA, ASA, SSA, ZSA, CMA). Experience with MIL-STD-882 analyses (e.g., PHA, O&SHA, HHA, SHA/SSHA, FMECA, SAR). Desired experience or training in MBSE and MBSA. Knowledge of software safety standards such as DO-178C, MIL-STD-882, AMCOM385-17, and the Joint Software Safety Engineering Handbook. Excellent communication skills and ability to build relationships with stakeholders. Technical understanding of aircraft systems and operational knowledge of aircraft and support systems is highly desirable. Preferred Qualifications: Self-starter with a passion for safety and mission success. Minimum of 2 years experience in aircraft or system development/sustainment with structured safety processes. Bachelor’s degree in STEM; military rotorcraft or mechanic qualifications considered; advanced degrees a plus. What We Offer: Every other Friday off with our 9/80 schedule. 80 hours of PTO, 120 hours of vacation, and 12-13 paid holidays annually. Six weeks parental leave (subject to bargaining agreements). On-site health facilities and Employee Resource Groups. And much more. Join us to shape the future of aviation and make history together. We foster a culture driven by diversity, innovation, and purpose. EEO Statement: Textron is committed to equal opportunity employment for all applicants and employees, regardless of protected characteristics. This position involves access to ITAR/EAR-regulated information. Non-U.S. persons must meet eligibility criteria for access.
