The opportunity:

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced systems safety engineer to lead the delivery of safety engineering outputs across the Common Anti-air Modular Missile (CAMM) family product range. If you have experience in the preparation, planning and delivery of hazard analysis and safety evaluation and assurance processes, along with the ability to coordinate them seamlessly with the system engineering process, this opportunity is for you.


As a team and independently, your role will involve central coordination between various teams including design engineers, project controllers, customers, and other stakeholders to ensure on-time delivery of high-quality Hazard Analyses, Safety Case Reports, Safety Panels, and other systems safety engineering outputs. This will require dedicated effort and leadership to consistently deliver safe-by-design assurance and excellent international and UK MoD stakeholder management throughout the product development life cycle and up to in-service use.


By understanding the system and its operating context, you will decide what type of evidence will most cost-effectively show that the identified hazards have been mitigated to the customer's satisfaction. This role is about balancing time and cost constraints to ensure that a convincing safety case, comprising appropriate evidence, is constructed. The role calls for pragmatism and a solid appreciation that safety results from good engineering, not just compliance with numerical targets.


Working within a matrix organisation.

What we're looking for from you:

Thorough understanding and experience of how the hazard analysis and safety evaluation processes integrate with the system engineering process. Ability to deliver Safety Case Reports and the supporting information (Hazard Analysis, Functional Failure Analysis, FTA, etc). Demonstrable knowledge of, and experience in, the application of UK and International safety and systems engineering standards, especially Def Stan 00-056. Good knowledge of complex electronic systems and the associated safety issues (but other engineering subject areas, such as design, software, manufacture, etc, will be considered for candidates with the right strengths in other areas). Pro-active, self-starter with strong interpersonal and influencing skills and the ability to work as part of a multi-disciplinary / multi-national team, both within MBDA and with our customers.

Our company: Peace is not a given, Freedom is not a given, Sovereignty is not a given

MBDA is a leading defence organisation. We are proud of the role we play in supporting the Armed Forces who protect our nations. We partner with governments to work together towards a common goal, defending our freedom.


We are proud of our employee-led networks, examples include: Gender Equality, Pride, Menopause Matters, Parents and Carers, Armed Forces, Ethnic Diversity, Neurodiversity, Disability and more...


We recognise that everyone is unique, and we encourage you to speak to us should you require any advice, support or adjustments throughout our recruitment process.
