World-changing technologies. Life-changing careers. Learn more about Sandia at: http://www.sandia.gov *These benefits vary by job classification. What Your Job Will Be Like: We are seeking a R&D S&E, Systems Engineering System Safety Engineer. The System Safety Engineering (SSE) applies engineering and management principles, criteria, and techniques to achieve acceptable mishap risk within the constraints of operational effectiveness, time, and cost throughout all phases of the system life cycle. The application of system safety engineering results in the definition of system safety requirements throughout the life cycle for any system. When properly applied, these requirements enable the identification and management of hazards and their associated risks during system developmental and sustaining engineering activities. The application includes utilizing the MIL-STD-882E order of precedence to meet safety requirements, adequately characterizing the safety significance, and integrating precepts early in the program help establish and engrain safety requirements and criteria throughout the life cycle. The following describe the top-level functions of the SSE:
Salary Range: $114,000 - $227,500 *Salary range is estimated, and actual salary will be determined after consideration of the selected candidate's experience and qualifications, and application of any approved geographic salary differential. Qualifications We Require: Bachelor's degree in a relevant STEM field, plus 5 years relevant experience. Experience with System Safety efforts described in MIL-STD-882E or other system safety standards, augmented by identifying specific tasks that may be necessary to ensure that the program adequately addresses areas that the Program needs to emphasize. Some specific tasks may include, but are not limited to:
Qualifications We Desire: Experience and ability to conduct preliminary analysis to identify, classify, and mitigate safety hazards associated with the program as a system element of the Weapon System (WS) and its integration within an overall weapon system-of-systems (SoS) and host platform(s) at any stage in its respective lifecycle. These analyses generally scope the following tasks:
About Our Team: The Military Systems Engineering department applies interdisciplinary systems engineering principles and approaches to transform a set of customer needs into a solution that meets those needs with verifiable, traceable, and testable requirements. The team accomplishes this by overseeing the engineering design, development, and demonstration of complex military systems. Methods used are Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), Concept of Operations Development, Requirements Analysis and Definition, System Design Descriptions, Trade Studies, Design Analysis, Interface Design & Assessment, Integrated System Test Planning, System Verification & Validation, and Configuration Management. Posting Duration: This posting will be open for application submissions for a minimum of seven (7) calendar days, including the 'posting date'. Sandia reserves the right to extend the posting date at any time. Security Clearance: Sandia is required by DOE to conduct a pre-employment drug test and background review that includes checks of personal references, credit, law enforcement records, and employment/education verifications. Applicants for employment need to be able to obtain and maintain a DOE Q-level security clearance, which requires U.S. citizenship. If you hold more than one citizenship (i.e., of the U.S. and another country), your ability to obtain a security clearance may be impacted. Applicants offered employment with Sandia are subject to a federal background investigation to meet the requirements for access to classified information or matter if the duties of the position require a DOE security clearance. Substance abuse or illegal drug use, falsification of information, criminal activity, serious misconduct or other indicators of untrustworthiness can cause a clearance to be denied or terminated by DOE, resulting in the inability to perform the duties assigned and subsequent termination of employment. EEO: All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or veteran status and any other protected class under state or federal law. NNSA Requirements for MedPEDs: If you have a Medical Portable Electronic Device (MedPED), such as a pacemaker, defibrillator, drug-releasing pump, hearing aids, or diagnostic equipment and other equipment for measuring, monitoring, and recording body functions such as heartbeat and brain waves, if employed by Sandia National Laboratories you may be required to comply with NNSA security requirements for MedPEDs. If you have a MedPED and you are selected for an on-site interview at Sandia National Laboratories, there may be additional steps necessary to ensure compliance with NNSA security requirements prior to the interview date.
