More about this role

What you need to know about this position:

  • Equipment Maintenance and Reliability : A fundamental aspect of the role is ensuring the reliability, availability, and performance of equipment and machinery within a facility. This involves developing and implementing maintenance strategies, conducting reliability analyses, and optimizing preventive and predictive maintenance programs to minimize downtime and maximize productivity.
  • Root Cause Analysis (RCA) : The reliability engineer should be adept at conducting root cause analyses to identify the underlying factors contributing to equipment failures or performance issues. By determining the root causes, they can implement effective corrective actions to prevent recurrence and improve overall reliability.
  • Predictive Maintenance Technologies : Familiarity with predictive maintenance technologies, such as vibration analysis, infrared thermography, oil analysis, and ultrasonic testing, is essential. These technologies enable proactive monitoring of equipment health, allowing for timely intervention and maintenance activities before failures occur.
  • Data Analysis and Decision-Making : Reliability engineers rely on data-driven decision-making to prioritize maintenance tasks, optimize resource allocation, and improve equipment reliability. Proficiency in data analysis tools and techniques is critical for interpreting maintenance data, identifying trends, and making informed decisions.
  • Continuous Improvement Culture : Successful maintenance reliability programs embrace a culture of continuous improvement, where employees are encouraged to identify opportunities for optimization and innovation. Reliability engineers play a key role in driving continuous improvement initiatives, fostering collaboration, and implementing best practices to enhance reliability and efficiency.
  • Regulatory Compliance and Safety : Reliability engineers must ensure that maintenance activities comply with regulatory requirements and industry standards, particularly in safety-critical environments. They should stay updated on relevant regulations and safety protocols to mitigate risks and ensure a safe working environment for personnel.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration : Collaboration with other departments, such as operations, engineering, quality assurance, and procurement, is essential for success in this role. Reliability engineers should effectively communicate and coordinate with cross-functional teams to address reliability issues, implement maintenance strategies, and support organizational goals.
  • Training and Development : Investing in ongoing training and development is crucial to keep abreast of emerging technologies, industry trends, and best practices in maintenance reliability engineering. Reliability engineers should actively seek opportunities for professional development, such as attending training programs, conferences, and obtaining relevant certifications.
  • Performance Metrics and KPIs : Reliability engineers are responsible for monitoring and reporting on key performance indicators (KPIs) related to equipment reliability, maintenance effectiveness, and overall asset performance. Establishing meaningful metrics and performance benchmarks helps track progress, identify areas for improvement, and demonstrate the impact of maintenance reliability initiatives.

What extra ingredients you will bring:

  • Candidates should have a strong understanding of reliability engineering principles, including reliability analysis, failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA), root cause analysis (RCA), and predictive maintenance techniques.
  • Proficiency with maintenance management software, computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS), and reliability software tools is a plus.

Education / Certifications: Bachelor’s degree in engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, or Industrial engineering). Require a minimum of 2 years of experience in maintenance engineering, reliability engineering, or a related field.
