About The Position

As Reliability Engineer, you will support a project for a client in the heavy industrial industry. In this role, you will provide technical and strategic expertise in terms of life cycle asset management implementation and the associated practices, to ensure maximum possible equipment performance at minimum cost. This will be accomplished by analysis, process mapping and improvements through equipment reliability, availability, and maintainability.

Requirements

Minimum of 5 years' experience in reliability engineering related processes.
Expertise in multiple areas of maintenance and reliability, material management, planning and scheduling, and CMMS / EAM / ERP optimization.
Must have an understanding of the RCM process, failure mode identification, defect analysis, cause and effect analysis, loss elimination, determination of probability, and consequence of failures; along with the use of sFMEA, RCFA decision logic, and writing tasks to mitigate identified failures.
Must have strong mechanical and electrical knowledge.
Have a solid knowledge of equipment assembly, installation, and repair.
Must have an understanding of Asset Management, its various components and organization.
Must have an understanding of condition monitoring principles, tools, and application.
Must have at least one certification in reliability: (CMRP, CRL, etc.), and be willing to continually pursue knowledge and certifications in reliability and predictive technologies.

Responsibilities

Guides efforts to ensure reliability and maintainability of equipment, processes, utilities, facilities, mechanical, electrical, control, and safety/security systems.
Defines, develops, administers, and refines the asset management plan, maintenance plan, and preventive/predictive maintenance programs.
Reduces and improves maintenance work wherever feasible; assuring efficient and productive operation of processes and equipment.
Protect and prolong the economic life of assets at the lowest practical cost.
Be proactive in addressing strategic long term problems/issues affecting the organization.
Be a team player that champions and leads the reliability process, and is able to communicate and build relationships with various functional, engineering, and business leaders in order to drive continuous improvement.
A self-starter capable of managing multiple priorities with minimal oversight; working as a single entity with the ability to influence others to gain alignment.
Supports the capital project process to ensure the reliability and maintainability of new and modified installations.
Participates in the qualification and validation of capital installations to ensure adherence to functional specifications.
Guides designs to ensure reliability and maintainability of equipment and processes.
Participates in the design review of capital additions and changes to ensure full life cycle maintainability of equipment, utilities, and facilities.
Participates in approval of all new installations, including those done by contractors, to ensure their maintainability and reliability follows life cycle costing methods.
Supports the Asset Operating Plan that provides standardized processes and procedures for proper operation and operator care of production, utility, and auxiliary assets.
Develops engineered solutions to mitigate repetitive failures and problems that adversely affect plant availability, performance, capacity, quality, cost, or regulatory compliance.
Be competent with data analysis techniques that can include: Statistical Process Control OEE Overall Equipment Effectiveness Reliability modeling and prediction RCFA fault analysis techniques Six Sigma (6σ) methodology
Be competent in the implementation of Predictive/Maintenance Methods/Technologies that include: Vibration Sampling and Analysis Lubrication Sampling and Analysis Thermography: Mechanical, Electrical Ultrasonic Thickness, Ultrasonic Sound: Electrical, Mechanical, Air Machine Alignment and Balancing
Facilitate root-cause and root-cause failure analysis (RCA, RCFA).
Support failure reporting; analysis and corrective actions systems.
Maintains the Asset Maintenance Plans that define the maintenance practices for production, utility, and auxiliary assets.
Including the development and optimization of the predictive and preventive maintenance programs for assets.
Works with all levels of maintenance and operations obtaining owner approval prior to implementation and changes.
Analyzes planned idleness of operating equipment to develop and improve PM/PdM schedules.
Periodically compares PM/PdM frequencies to downtime reports and equipment histories to identify where frequencies require adjustment.
Refining the frequencies on an "economic” basis to avoid "over maintenance”.
Regularly review equipment failures.
Determine what PM action might have been taken to prevent failure in order to protect against reoccurrence.
Participates in the optimization of maintenance to maximize production capacity based upon analysis of preventive maintenance time needs, repair histories, inspection reports, etc.
Develop standardization programs, which influences new equipment purchases including construction, materials, equipment, and spare parts.
