The selected candide is expected to have a significant impact on the development of reliability artifacts throughout the system’s life cycle. Examples of artifacts include, but are not limited to: reliability prediction, Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) analysis, reliability block diagrams (RBD), reliability reports, stistics, Failure Modes Effect (Criticality) Analysis (FMEA/FMECA), Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action System (FRACAS). The selected candide will be expected to collabore on multi-disciplinary teams to resolve complex and significant problems using their technical knowledge. The selected candide may present reliability engineering artifacts they have developed to the customer in formal design reviews and may serve as a customer liaison in many of their programs.

The RAM Engineer will work in a mrixed organizion Leidos, with the potential to support one or multiple programs once in a variety of engineering fields with different team environments, from the large-scale programs th Leidos is the prime contractor for, to smaller-scale programs for which Leidos provides support as a subcontractor to companies in the top 100 DoD contractors.
