Systems Safety Specialist/Engineer

Systems Safety Specialist/Engineer P54The Safety Specialist role is responsible for performing System Safety, Health Hazard and Hazardous Materials analyses during system/subsystem design for the purpose of ensuring vehicle crew safety, as well as quantifying and reducing the system’s impact to the environment. The Safety Specialist is involved throughout the design process including requirements development, concept development, and final design development, presenting the results of these analyses and recommendations for improvements at internal and external design reviews. Additionally, the Safety Specialist is responsible for preparing and providing a variety of reports/Contract Data Requirements List (CDRLs) as required to support contract and testing requirements.Key Job ElementsCollaborate with design teams to conduct hazard and risk assessments related to System Safety, Software Safety, Occupational Health, Hazardous Materials and Environmentally damaging material during vehicle design and work to mitigateUse various safety analysis techniques to perform preliminary hazard assessments, such as Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), and Functional Hazard Assessments (FHA)Evaluate designs to compliance with relevant safety standards and regulations (e.g., ISO 26262, MIL-STD-882).Work closely with cross-functional teams, including design, systems and project engineering to proactively address safety concerns.Evaluate customer requirements for Environmental, Safety and Occupational Health (ESOH) and determine vehicle complianceCreate and manage Hazard Logs, Risk Registers, and conduct Hazard TrackingSupport System Engineering Department in development of the System Specification Document ensuring safety, occupational health and hazardous materials requirements are capturedSupport defining software safety requirements, complete software safety analyses and support software safety testing conducted by the Software TeamSupport, as required, ESOH testing (Noise Testing, Air Quality Testing) to determine compliance to contract and/or system specification requirementsSupport, as required, Safety, Occupational Health, Hazardous Materials and Environmental Impact reports to be submitted to the CustomerRequired QualificationsUniversity Degree or College Diploma in a related field, such as in an ESOH discipline or equivalent (engineering, environmental, industrial hygiene, etc)Minimum 3 years relevant experienceExperienced in conducting MIL-STD-882 safety analysesKnowledge of Safety Engineering Principles, Design Standards and able to assess if concept designs are likely to achieve numerical safety targetsAdvanced knowledge of international and local safety, occupational health and environmental standards (legislative and design)Demonstrated ability to work within a team environment with minimal supervisionStrong communication, organization and prioritization skillsIntermediate computer skills in MS Office, including Word, Excel and PowerPointMust be able to meet Anthropometrical Size Requirements for confined spaceAbility to travel (5% Cdn) and (5% US & International) and possess/be able to acquire and maintain a valid passportPreferred QualificationsP.Eng or the ability to obtain a P.EngExperience in System Safety in product designExperience in applying safety related Military Standards (i.e.: MIL-STD-882, MIL-HDBK-764) to product designProfessional certification in safety (i.e.: CRSP, CHSC, CSP, ROHT, CIH or equivalent)Able to construct and update Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) and Event Tree Analyses (ETA)An understanding of Functional Safety and ISO 26262Familiarity with Dynamic Object-Oriented Requirements System (DOORS)Working ConditionsPhysical Conditions and Hazards:The conditions in which an individual or staff works, including but not limited to such things as amenities, physical environment, stress and noise levels, degree of safety or danger, temperature, location.Physical Environment: OfficeHazards: NAPhysical Demands DescriptionThis section objectively captures and describes the physical demands that are required to perform a particular job or role.
