Job Description:

Shield AI is looking for a Reliability Modeling Engineer to own the reliability model and failure-prediction strategy for the V-BAT unmanned aircraft system. In this role you will build the quantitative backbone that predicts how the system fails, why it fails, and how to design those failures out — translating field data, industry sources, and test results into models that directly inform design, production, and sustainment decisions. You will be the reliability subject-matter expert who partners across Design, Manufacturing, Quality, and Fleet Support to drive measurable improvements in system reliability.

What you'll do:

  • Build and maintain the V-BAT system reliability model, predicting system-level failure rate using failure-rate data from the field and industry sources.
  • Create and maintain the V-BAT system fault tree, identifying single points of failure and quantifying their contribution to overall system reliability.
  • Inform design decisions that eliminate single points of failure and improve the reliability of the system, providing Design-for-Reliability (DfR) guidance in design reviews.
  • Partner with Design, Fleet Support, Quality, and Manufacturing Engineers on root cause investigations for field failures, and drive corrective and preventive actions to closure.
  • Drive reliability test campaigns in production and sustainment to verify the system is meeting its reliability requirements and predictions, feeding results back into the model.
  • Drive production reliability screening campaigns to reduce infant-mortality failures, such as HASS (Highly Accelerated Stress Screening) and ESS (Environmental Stress Screening).
  • Establish and track reliability metrics — MTBF, failure-rate trends, and reliability growth — and communicate reliability status and risk posture to program leadership.
  • Required qualifications:

  • B.S. in Engineering, Mathematics, or Statistics discipline.
  • 5+ years of experience in reliability or surety engineering in a high-consequence industry (defense, aerospace, automotive, or medical device).
  • Expertise in Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), and Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) calculations.
  • Demonstrated ability to build reliability models from field and test data and translate them into actionable design and production decisions.
  • Preferred qualifications:

  • Experience with Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (RAM) modeling and Weibull analysis.
  • Experience with reliability analysis software such as Relyence (or equivalent tools such as ReliaSoft/Weibull++, Windchill Risk & Reliability).
  • Familiarity with government standards for developing reliability and maintainability models, such as MIL-HDBK-217, 217Plus, and MIL-STD-756.
  • Experience implementing FRACAS (Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action System) and supporting Failure Review Boards.
  • CRE (ASQ Certified Reliability Engineer) certification.
  • Experience with unmanned aircraft, aerospace, or other mission-critical hardware systems.

  • Full-time regular employee offer package:
    Pay within range listed + Bonus + Benefits + Equity
     
    Temporary employee offer package:
    Pay within range listed above + temporary benefits package (applicable after 60 days of employment)
     
    Salary compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, licenses and certifications, and specific work location. All offers are contingent on a cleared background and possible reference check. Military fellows and part-time employees are not eligible for benefits. Please speak to your talent acquisition representative for more information.
