Role: Reliability & Maintainability (R&M) Engineer/ System Safety Engineer
Location: Remote
Duration: Fulltime
Job Description: The selected candidate will help design, certify & support commercial airplanes by applying state-of-art reliability and maintainability engineering design, modelling and analysis principles. R&M Engineering is a key functional discipline that supports airplane development for optimal performance, lifecycle economics & compliance to safety and airworthiness requirements.
Position Responsibilities: Develop and allocate reliability requirements at system and subsystem levels. Use modeling, simulation and data analytics methodologies & tools including statistical and probabilistic analyses. Perform reliability analyses including: Serve as a technical specialist supporting other functional design groups during all stages of the airplane product development and support lifecycle.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
