To work as part of a team executing the systems engineering on projects covering design, development, construction, integration, verification and commissioning of complicated systems, elements, subsystems and associated supporting
infrastructure and operational systems, both in the facilities in Cape Town and on site at Carnarvon in the Northern Cape.
JOB DESCRIPTION
- Ensuring delivered systems meet stakeholder needs through executing requirements engineering by defining, analysing and managing requirements, establishing and maintaining traceability and developing system and sub-system design-to specifications
- Converting stakeholder needs and requirements into physical engineered systems through executing functional and physical architecting, analysis and synthesis, identifying and creating ICDs, performance analysis, performing FMECAs to implement safety in design and generating performance, build-to and maintain to specifications
- Deliver systems with verified performance and quality through implementing ICDs, physically assembling items, preparing and executing Verification Plans, Test instructions, ATPs and QTPs, ATRs and QTRs and establishing and maintaining baselines (DBL, QBL,PBL, OsBL)
- Ensuring the delivered systems continue to operate and deliver the expected performance by maintaining the PBS in ALIM, managing baseline changes via ECPs, CNs, waivers, concessions, , performing Root Cause Analysis and designing modifications to eliminate failure modes.
