Job Description:

Salary Range: £53,259 - £71,400

Leonardo UK operates a grade-based salary framework with broad bands. The salary range shown reflects the approved grade band for this role, or a narrower hiring range published within that band, and is benchmarked against the external market. Exceptions above the standard range are managed through governance controls to protect internal equity.

Join us in helping to design and deliver safe, reliable systems that operate in some of the most complex engineering environments. As a Principal Safety Engineer, you’ll play a key role in ensuring our products meet the highest safety and environmental standards throughout their entire lifecycle.

Working within the Company Safety and Environmental Management System, you’ll collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams, customers, partners and suppliers to analyse risks, influence design decisions and ensure the safe delivery of innovative systems.

Your impact

In this role, you will apply your safety analysis expertise across the full system lifecycle — from early requirements definition through design, development, manufacture, integration, acceptance testing, delivery and, when required, disposal.

Your work will include:

Conducting safety assessments across the lifecycle, from Hazard Identification through to the delivery of project Safety Case Reports.
Performing detailed safety analyses using techniques such as Functional Failure Analysis, system requirements analysis and Fault Tree Analysis to identify risks and influence design decisions and architecture.
Carrying out Environmental Impact Assessments to ensure products comply with relevant legislation and environmental standards.
Developing Safety Requirements and identifying appropriate verification and validation methods.
Building robust safety arguments supported by evidence to demonstrate compliance and support safety claims.
Presenting the results of safety analysis to Integrated Project Teams and customers.
Supporting incident or observation investigations where required.
Working closely with engineers from multiple disciplines to solve complex technical challenges and deliver safe products.
Contributing to the continuous improvement of the Company Safety Management System.

What you’ll bring

We’re looking for someone who enjoys solving complex problems and influencing system design through safety expertise.

Experience analysing complex systems from a safety perspective, with an understanding of system functions.
Knowledge and experience in developing Safety Case Reports for complex systems, ideally within an electronics or avionics environment.
A self-motivated mindset with a passion for learning new technologies and continuously improving your skills.
The ability to collaborate across multiple subsystem teams, managing design complexity and uncertainty to help develop effective system solutions.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
Experience working with internal and external stakeholders at a variety of seniority levels.

It would be great if you also have experience with

CAMEO Systems Modeller
Azure
DOORS
Adelard ASCE
Isograph FaultTree+
Microsoft Office, particularly Word and Excel

This is not an exhaustive list, and we are keen to hear from you even if you might not have experience in all the above. The most important skill is a good attitude and willingness to learn.
