Graduate Reliability and Functional Safety Engineers

PDSVISION in the UK is a multi-disciplined systems engineering consultancy, software channel partner and training provider with offices in Cambridge, Manchester and Edinburgh, helping engineering companies transform how they both develop products and manufacturing processes and manage risks during operation.

We are a member of the PDSVISION, a fast-growing international provider of engineering services and software, with 500 staff and operations in the UK, EMEA, SEA and USA.

Within the PDSVISION, our UK team leads our Global Centre of Excellence for Systems Engineering, including Functional Safety and Reliability Analysis, Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and Application Lifecycle Management (ALM). We provide extensive implementation, consulting and training services to support client objectives and strengthen their inhouse capabilities.

What We Are Looking For

To support our continued growth at over 20% annually, we are seeking Graduate Engineers to further strengthen our Systems Engineering services capability.

If appointed, you will initially join a dedicated PDSVISION solution team providing dependability consultancy to a strategic client undertaking a long-term national infrastructure project within nuclear engineering. To deliver against the project’s requirements, it is essential that dependability is considered early in the development process, to ensure that operational availability and safety goals are met for the life of the facility. Consequently, with training and continual mentoring, you will assist the implementation of risk management-based dependability principles, focusing on either Availability, Reliability and Maintainability (AR&M) or Functional Safety.

Essential Skills/Experience

• Degree in an appropriate engineering or similar subject.
• Experience applying statistical principles to engineering problems.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to present solutions clearly and convincingly to large and small, technical and non-technical, audiences at a senior level.
• Self-motivation and the drive to achieve objectives.
• A systems thinking mindset.
• Good team-player.

Desirable Skills/Experience

• Developing system reliability models, such as RBD or Markov chains.
• Undertaking qualitative and quantitative safety analysis, including FTA and LOPA
• Calculating MTBF values from a range of data sources.
• Knowledge of systematic risk assessment techniques such as FMEA, HAZID and HAZOP.
• Using specialist reliability engineering software, such as ReliaSoft or Isograph.

Due to the nature of the project work, you will need to be a British National and be able to achieve the necessary security clearances.

If you are a recent graduate or completing your undergraduate studies by summer 2025, with a passion for systems engineering, interested in working within a dynamic, thriving, customer-focused consulting environment and believe you meet the above essential criteria…we would love to hear from you!
