Works under general supervision.

• A) Check maturity test plans and test reports for technical accuracy
• B) Oversee Accelerated Stress Testing (AST)
• C) Assess completed test results for acceptability
• D) Anticipate reliability related risks for Risk Assessment
• E) Performs MTBF, MTBUR and FMEA calculations
• F) Define test methods on new and nouvel design based on expected failure modes
• G) Define lifecycle acceptance criteria for seat components and mechanisms
• H) Assessment of existing reliability test methodologies, procedures and specifications
• I) DoE to develop test plan methods and set ups to ensure product robustness and performance
• J) Replicate product malfunctions under control conditions for failure diagnosis
• K) Oversee Accelerated Stress Testing (AST)
