Location.
Madrid Tres Cantos, Spain A Joint Venture between Thales (67%) and Leonardo (33%), Thales Alenia Space is a global space manufacturer delivering, for more than 40 years, high-tech solutions for telecommunications, navigation, Earth Observation, environmental management, exploration, science and orbital infrastructures.
Thanks to our diversity of skills, talents and cultures, our customers (governments, institutions, space agencies, telecommunications operators), therefore have Space to Connect, Secure & Defend, Observe & Protect, Explore, Travel & Navigate.
Thales in Spain is a leader in technological solutions applied to Defence, Aeronautics, Security, Transportation and Space and, furthermore, is a global centre for excellence in Space, Security of Critical Infrastructures and Transportation.
With a turnover of €320 million and a staff of , it exports approximately 40% of its total production principally to the Middle East, North Africa and Latin America.
Within the RAMS service of the Quality Engineering, the activities are carried out under the primary responsibility of the head of service and consist to.
Provide Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, Safety (RAMS) engineering expertise and analysis in the development and implementation of Space products.
Develop, maintain and implement a Dependability (RAM) & Safety programme plan for all project phases addressing the RAMS requirements applicable to the project.
Perform RAMS design, analysis, modeling and simulation to specify and verify that the Space products developed at Thales Alenia Space to meet the customer requirements during the whole operational lifetime.
Represent RAMS in technical meetings involving RAMS-related issues.
Participate in, influence and approve design decisions impacting or potentially impacting RAMS.
Attend the Program Design reviews for their respective Product and/or Project areas and provide evaluations & recommendations (RIDs).
Review the RAMS Analyses performed by subcontractors.
Identify with adequate anticipation risks and opportunities and propose mitigation actions.
Prepare subsystem & equipment RAMS requirements for relative specifications, interface requirements and test requirements by analysing and decomposing customer requirements.
Perform trade off evaluations in conjunction with other attributes such as mass, size, cost and performance to identify the product RAMS engineering design choices with associated advantages and disadvantages.
Evaluate the compliance of designs with RAMS engineering requirements by review of technical specifications, designs & designs changes for both HW and SW, and suggests design alternatives where appropriate to enhance reliability based on a knowledge of design feasibility & the RAMS requirements.
Support the rationale for the selection of the design solution and the demonstration that the design meets the RAMS requirements by performing.
Failure Modes Effects Analysis (FMEA) with identification of Single Point Failure Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Hardware Software Interaction Analysis Failure Detection Isolation and Recovery (FDIR) analysis Availability/Outage Analysis Maintainability Activities Hazard Analysis Ensure that RAMS can be verified.
Review of test documentation.
Report directly to the RAMS Manager RAMS and work closely with other team members, both inside the RAMS team and from other functional teams, to meet the project objectives.
