Reliability Engineer

Reporting to the Maintenance Manager, Plant Manager or Enterprise Reliability Engineering Manager this position will enhance Asset Reliability through technical support to the Maintenance function, with the goal of optimizing the Time-based (PM) and Condition-based Maintenance (CbM) processes resulting in Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) improvements. This role will analyze Equipment History, and including Statistical Analysis, Predictive technologies, Non-destructive Test, and creative Problem Solving to rectify equipment issues causing significant or repetitive failures. This position will focus on data analytics of past failures and current equipment condition to make meaningful impacts to future Equipment Effectiveness.

Job Responsibilities• Own the Reliability-centered Maintenance (RCM) Program. This includes defining, designing, developing, facilitating, monitoring, and refining the program to determine effective asset maintenance strategies based on identified failure modes, effects, consequences, and the risk they pose both internally and externally. RCM program management may include:

o Facilitating RCM Analysis workshops on the top 5% of facility assets by critically raking.

o Utilizing statistical tools such as Weibull Analysis to determine failure rate curves

o Collaborating with Maintenance Planners to develop failure mode driven maintenance procedures based upon RCM Analysis results.

o Coordinating with asset owners and maintenance management to secure understanding, approval, and endorsement of maintenance strategies.• Own the Root Cause Analysis (RCA) Program. This includes defining, designing, developing, facilitating, monitoring, and refining the program. RCA program management may include:

o Conducting Bad Actor Analysis (BAA) to determine significance and facilitating Root Cause Analysis (RCA) to pinpoint the origins of Performance, Availability, and Quality issues.• Own the program for Asset Criticality Analysis• Own the programs Preventive Maintenance Evaluation (PME) and Preventative Maintenance Optimization (PMO).

o This includes utilization of Human-Factored Procedure writing.• Collaborate with Capital Delivery and Project Engineering to facilitate Design for Reliability (DfR) and Design for Maintainability (DfM) of new and modified installations.• Participate in the final inspection and commissioning validation of new equipment installations. This involves sign-off of Function Testing and performing Baseline inspections.• Calculate Asset Life-Cycle Costs (LCC) and durations on A critical equipment.• Ensure machinery is operating at peak performance, by calculating and assessing the Asset Life-Cycle Costs and duration of equipment.• Own the Condition-based Maintenance (CbM) Program. This includes defining, designing, developing, facilitating, monitoring, and refining the the CbM process and program. The CbM program includes:• Vibration Analysis (VA)• Infrared Thermography Mechanical• Motor Circuit Analysis / Electrical Signature Analysis• Oil Analysis (OA) / Tribology• Ultrasonic Emission (UE)• Non-destructive Testing (NDT). • Visual Testing (VT)

You Have:• Bachelor's degree in engineering or related field• 5+ of previous maintenance experience preferred• Knowledge and experience with Preventative Maintenance programs. • Familiarity with statistical tools and software.• Excellent teamwork and facilitation skills• Willingness to obtain CMRP and PdM certifications
