Key responsibilities
Support the definition of a “product baseline”, creating standard requirements, system architecture, ICDs, design and analysis goals, test plans and operations concepts.
Lead and perform safety analyses including Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA/FMECA), and related methods.
Perform system level trade-offs, coordinating inputs from various disciplines within the team, to evaluate any proposed changes of the design baseline to satisfy the need of each individual mission.
Ensure internal interfaces between various spacecraft subsystems are maintained.
Contribute to requirements management ensuring all requirements are closed-out at the planned project landmarks.
Support AIT/Flight&Test Operations Groups and subsystem leads in defining test plans and specifications which will successfully verify the spacecraft design.
Coordinate efforts between relevant subsystems and Operations Team in defining a spacecraft operational concept.
Contribute to the maintenance of our Model-Based Systems Engineering tools and the integration.
