Collaborate with plant teams to pinpoint and implement reliability enhancements through operational and maintenance procedure modifications, as well as equipment improvements.
Conduct equipment history analyses to uncover reliability enhancement opportunities.
Apply root cause analysis techniques to address significant issues affecting machine downtime and maintenance costs.
Influence the selection and deployment of new equipment, ensuring reliability and maintainability are key considerations.
Enhance the Autonomous Maintenance process by developing operator inspections and tasks to maintain equipment condition and performance.
Advocate for maintenance strategies that prioritize planned and preventive maintenance over reactive approaches, and promote condition-based maintenance as superior to time-based methods.
Lead audits to assess and track reliability progress and performance.
Implement reliability centered maintenance (RCM) principles to refine equipment maintenance strategies.
Act as a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) expert, aiding in user training to maintain data integrity.

Additional Duties:

Champion the facility's Root Cause Analysis (RCA) process, identifying corrective actions to prevent failures.
Share insights and solutions with reliability engineers across different locations.
Monitor equipment Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) and Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) to identify reliability improvement areas.
Utilize preventive maintenance (PM) and predictive maintenance (PdM) findings for PM optimization.
Participate in the design and installation of new or modified equipment.
Conduct spare part reviews to ensure optimal stocking levels based on wear and failure rates.
Identify and strategize against obsolescence risks.
Introduce and prescribe preventive and predictive maintenance activities through CMMS.
Provide precision maintenance training, develop a world-class lubrication program, and support operational team training.
Drive proactivity in maintenance planning and scheduling, ensuring effective CMMS use and system integrity.

Qualifications:

Experience in reliability engineering within a manufacturing or similar environment.
Strong analytical skills and proficiency in root cause analysis methodologies.
Familiarity with CMMS, preferably SAP PM, and a background in implementing RCM principles.
Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written, with the ability to train and influence others.
A proactive approach to problem-solving and continuous improvement.

This role is pivotal in ensuring the reliability and efficiency of plant operations, contributing to the overall success and sustainability of the operations.
