Job Description As a RAM Engineer, you'll have a role that's out of the ordinary where you will have the opportunity to be involved in complex engineering projects to ensure that the UK's submarines are safe, available, and maintainable. We are looking for an RAM Engineer support the customers design team and ultimate support requirements. You will be delivering as part of an extended team, responsible for ensuring that the systems are not only high-performing but are also Operationally Available and Cost-Effective to maintain throughout their 30 year lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities:

Availability Modelling :
Develop and maintain Reliability Block Diagrams (RBDs) and math models to predict platform and system availability against MoD targets within a Submarine environment. Risk & Failure Analysis :
Support or Lead FMECA (Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis) workshops to identify single points of failure and recommend design mitigations. Reliability and Maintainability (R&M):
Generating claims and arguments for R&M performance predictions and substantiating these with evidence in accordance with strict MoD regulations/standards. Stakeholder Interface:
Serve as the strategic interface between design, supply chain, and the customer to negotiate data-driven trade-offs that balance technical reliability with operational availability and through-life cost Data Reporting:
Manage the FRACAS (Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action System) to ensure "closed-loop" learning from testing into production. Spares Optimization :
Able to perform complex spares optimization and Level of Repair Analysis (LORA) Work Experience Qualifications & Experience Degree or equivalent in Systems, Mechanical, Electrical Engineering , or related discipline. Understanding of the use of R&M domain metrics such as availability, failure rate, Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF), Mean Time to Failure (MTTF), Mean Active Repair Time (MART). Experience in reliability modelling techniques such as Fault Tree Analysis , Reliability Block Diagrams , and Markov Modelling.

Knowledge of R&M theories such as Boolean algebra;
Bayesian statistics;
Monte Carlo simulation processes. Have worked in highly regulated product orientated industry (e.g., aerospace, nuclear, maritime, oil and gas etc.) Software Proficiency :

Experience of industry-standard tools used in ARM environments (e.g.Systecon Suite,Reliasoft, Windchill Risk and Reliability). A familiarity with OPUS
10 modelling tool is also desirable. Desirable Attributes:
Good Communication skills - Makes clear and convincing oral presentations; listens effectively; clarifies information as needed.
