The Reliability Engineer champions the implementation of reliability best practices. This role will also evaluate new best-known methods and technologies to continuously improve equipment reliability.
Key aspects of this position include:
Working with various plant teams and areas to identify, evaluate, and implement reliability improvement opportunities through changes to operating and maintenance procedures, and equipment upgrades.
Analyzing equipment history to identify reliability improvement opportunities.
Deploying root cause analysis methods and tools on problems or failures that have resulted in consequential impacts related to machine downtime and / or maintenance expense.
Participating in new equipment selection and deployment processes to ensure reliability and maintainability principles are included in the design and implementation activities.
Supporting the Autonomous Maintenance process by contributing to the design and selection of operator inspections and tasks to sustain equipment condition and performance.
Major Responsibilities:
Serves as the facility RCA process champion and participates in failure analyses to identify corrective actions to eliminate failure modes or reduce the consequence of failure.
Interacts with reliability engineers at other plants to share findings from failure analyses along with solutions to problems identified.
Monitors equipment MTTR and MTBF performance to identify reliability improvement opportunities.
Examines defects and issues identified during PM and PdM activity and utilizes this information for PM optimization.
Participates in new and modified equipment design and installations.
Assists in spare part reviews to ensure adequate stocking levels as determined by consumption due to normal wear and failure frequency.
Identifies risks of obsolescence and proposes mitigation strategies.
Introduces tools and techniques in performing preventive and predictive maintenance activity and prescribes frequency of activity through CMMS maintenance plans.
Provides training and support of precision maintenance processes such as alignment and balancing.
Develops a world class lubrication program and monitors performance and execution.
Supports autonomous activities and provides skills training to operations team members.
Drives proactivity performance through supervision of planners and participation in scheduling activities with planners and coordinators.
Ensures CMMS users have been trained in system utilization, and audits activity to sustain system integrity.
Serves as a SAP PM subject matter expert for the plant.
EXPERIENCE:
Individual must be a degreed engineer with a minimum of 5 years of experience working in a manufacturing environment with focus on reliability and maintainability. The Reliability Engineer must possess a thorough knowledge of methodologies including Failure Modes and Effects Criticality Analysis (FMECA), Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM), and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM). Must be able to train others on reliability activities while also capable of facilitating analyses that utilize reliability methodologies. The Reliability Engineer must also be familiar with common condition based, predictive technologies such as vibration, thermal, ultrasonic, oil and circuit analyses.
