Our reputation is built on technological innovation, operational reliability, and uncompromising quality. Supported by a robust European supply chain, we deliver mission-ready aerospace solutions that reflect the highest standards of Swiss precision and manufacturing excellence.

Your mission
As ANAVIA continues its rapid growth, we are seeking a skilled SRaM Engineer who is eager to contribute to the future of unmanned aviation and take on the following key responsibilities:

Safety Engineering
Develop and maintain system and aircraft-level safety assessments in accordance with ARP4761 and ARP4754A (e.g., FHA, PSSA, SSA, CMA).

Perform Functional Hazard Assessments (FHA) and System Safety Assessments (SSA) to support certification and design reviews.

Support fault tree analysis (FTA), failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA/FMECA), and common cause analyses (CCA).

Contribute to the development and review of Certification Plans, Safety Plans, and System Safety Program Plans (SSPP).

Interface with airworthiness authorities (e.g. EASA, FAA, military) for certification-related safety work.

Reliability Engineering
Perform quantitative reliability predictions using tools such as Reliasoft, Windchill, or MIL-HDBK-217.

Develop system and LRU reliability models and conduct Failure Reporting, Analysis and Corrective Action Systems (FRACAS) processes.

Monitor and report Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), Mean Time Between Removals (MTBR), and other KPIs.

Analyze field data and in-service feedback to identify trends and areas for improvement.

Maintainability & Supportability
Conduct maintainability analysis, including Mean Time To Repair (MTTR), fault isolation, access analysis, and Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) architecture assessments.

Support the development of Maintenance Task Analyses (MTA) and Maintenance Manuals (e.g. AMM, CMM).

Contribute to the Logistics Support Analysis (LSA), Level of Repair Analysis (LORA), and Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) deliverables.

Work closely with production, customer support, and aftermarket teams to improve maintainability and reduce lifecycle costs.

Your profile
Education: Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field.

Experience: 3-5 years of experience in safety, reliability, or maintainability engineering within the aviation or aerospace sector. Experience applying safety and reliability engineering methods throughout the aircraft/system development lifecycle, from requirements definition through design, integration, verification, and certification.

Skills: Strong knowledge of applicable standards: ARP4761, ARP4754A, CS-29/-27 (or FAR equivalents), MIL-STD-882, MIL-HDBK-217.

Experience with analytical tools (e.g., Relex, Isograph, RAM Com-mander, FMEA software, MATLAB).

Familiarity with DO-178C / DO-254 / DO-160.

Experience working with multidisciplinary engineering teams, including Systems Engineering, Avionics, Flight Controls, Propulsion, Electrical, and Mechanical Engineering
Good understanding of aircraft systems, such as electrical, avionics, structures, or propulsion.

Languages: Proficiency in English. German desirable.

Join a dynamic and international team at ANAVIA and help shape the future of unmanned aviation.
We look forward to receiving your application.
