Your responsibilities will include:
* Performing avionics safety assessments, including SFHA, SSA, FTA and CMA
* Supporting system safety analysis and verification and validation activities
* Developing derived safety requirements
* Working with design teams and suppliers during design reviews
* Supporting avionics system certification activities
* Identifying hazards and helping ensure risks are properly managed
* Maintaining compliance throughout the aircraft development lifecycle
What we’re looking for
You should have professional experience in avionics system safety and a good understanding of:
* ARP4761

* Emergency systems
* Other safety-critical aircraft systems
Experience with eVTOL, electric aircraft or next-generation aviation technology would be advantageous, but it is not essential.
### Why consider relocating to Japan?
This position offers the chance to:
* Work on an innovative next-generation aircraft programme
* Join an international and collaborative engineering environment
* Apply established aerospace safety expertise within the growing eVTOL sector
* Live and work in Nagoya, one of Japan’s principal aerospace and engineering centres
* Receive relocation support, subject to the company’s eligibility requirements
Package and working arrangements
* Salary of ¥6.85 million–¥10.28 million, depending on experience
