Job Description

PURPOSE OF THE JOB

The primary role of the Reliability Engineer (RE) is to utilize engineering practices to drive out sources of repetitive failure in equipment and processes. The Reliability Engineer will identify and manage asset reliability risks that could adversely affect plant or business operations. In addition, the Reliability Engineer is involved in the Early Management (EM) for design and installation stages of Capital projects for new assets and modification of existing assets and conducts and develops various analytical methods for determining reliability of components, equipment and processes. The RE will also be involved in the implementation of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) Planned Maintenance (PM) Pillar.
