  • Provide input during the design and installation phases of new equipment to ensure reliability and maintainability are built-in from the start.
  • Systematically define and refine preventive and predictive maintenance programs, including Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM), to reduce costs and prevent failures.
  • Analyze operational data, such as Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), to track performance and identify areas for improvement.
  • Drive initiatives and engineering solutions to address repetitive failures and increase overall operational efficiency.
  • Offer technical expertise and guidance to production, maintenance, and project teams.
  • Confirm that all equipment and processes adhere to relevant industry regulations, standards, and safety procedures.

  • Strong ability to analyze complex data, solve problems, and identify trends using statistical methods like Weibull analysis.
  • A solid understanding of engineering principles, equipment design, and manufacturing processes.
  • Expertise in systematic problem-solving methodologies like Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and Six Sigma.
  • Experience with Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS), Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) software, and statistical analysis tools.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills to explain complex technical issues to diverse teams and stakeholders.
  • Professional certifications such as Certified Reliability Engineer (CRE) from the American Society for Quality (ASQ) or Certified Maintenance and Reliability Professional (CMRP) from the Society for Maintenance & Reliability Professionals (SMRP) are a plus.



Education and Experience:
  • A bachelor's degree in an engineering discipline, such as Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, or a related field. Some senior-level roles may prefer a master's degree.
  • Proven experience, minimum of 5+ years (10+ preferred), in a reliability engineering role, maintenance, manufacturing, or a related field.
  • Extensive experience validating and creating data sources for analysis and performance tracking.
  • Experience with design, fabrication, and testing of equipment upgrades and improvements is highly preferred.

Physical Requirements:
  • Ability to work 8 hours consecutively and maintain consistent focus throughout the workday.
  • Standard work hours M-F, 8a-5p, with the ability to occasionally adjust hours to support initiatives across a 24/7 manufacturing facility.
  • Regular presence on the manufacturing floor to collect data, observe processes, provide support, and collaborate with operations teams.
