Red Team / Failure Injection Analyst – Jet & Cryogenic Engines

Scope of Work

Join our elite Safety Engineering division and play a crucial role in system hardening, fault injection, and validation for next-generation combat jet engines and cryogenic propulsion systems. This position is part of our “Red Team,” tasked with simulating real-world failure scenarios and malicious conditions to validate system safety, integrity, and response protocols.

Nature of Work

• Design and execute controlled fault injection campaigns (thermal, electrical, software-based)
• Perform system-level penetration testing of embedded and FADEC systems
• Evaluate failure detection, containment, and recovery mechanisms
• Develop digital twin testbeds to simulate off-nominal operating conditions
• Collaborate with design and safety engineers to close safety gaps
• Prepare risk analysis reports (FMEA, FTA, Fault Tree Analysis)
• Support root cause analysis during engine test failures or in-flight anomalies
• Contribute to formal certification activities and validation documentation

Job Requirements

• B.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, or Control Systems Engineering
• Minimum 2–5 years in failure analysis, safety engineering, or embedded security
• Familiarity with MIL-STD-882, DO-178C, ARP4754A, or ISO 26262 (any)
• Hands-on with fault injection frameworks, real-time debugging, or hardware-in-loop (HIL) testing
• Working knowledge of safety-critical architectures, FADEC, and sensor systems
• Comfortable working with version-controlled testbeds (Git, Jenkins, etc.)
• Strong analytical mindset and ability to think like an attacker or failure agent

Eligibility

• Indian nationals or persons eligible to work in India
• Prior clearance or eligibility for access to restricted defense labs preferred
• Experience in defense, propulsion, or avionics domains strongly preferred
• High ethical standards and integrity required
