Job Description

The Role

Job Purpose 1. Reliability Culture: Act as a coordinator of reliability for the assets, influencing at all levels to increase focus on understanding and eliminating root causes of unreliability. Understand and build knowledge of the asset Reliability Management Framework. 2. Reliability Centered Maintenance: Work as an RCM facilitator/ practitioner. Extract maintenance data from CMMS, analyzing asset hierarchy, co-ordination with SMEs and other stakeholders, identify failure modes and consequences, cost vs risk analysis and identifying proper recommendations. Using online RCM tools and recommendation management portals. 3. Risk and Reliability Management: Learn the Manage Equipment Care (MEC) process. Maintain schedule for maintenance strategy reviews and conduct the review based on Risk & Reliability Management principles with tools such as PM Optimization (PMO), REM strategy reviews, RCM and PM Library where applicable. Coordinate in implement condition-based maintenance (CBM) approach and condition monitoring (CM) strategies where appropriate. 4.Reliability and Availability Improvement: Utilize reliability engineering tools (RAM, FMEA, reliability modeling, Weibull analysis, etc.) to identify and understand threats to reliability and availability. Apply RCA techniques to understanding and eliminating those threats with guidance from Senior reliability engineers. Prior knowledge and hands-on usage of some tools is desired. 5. Management of Change: Understand and help to track progress of any changes (PM routines, procedural/process changes, etc.) through the MOC process as required to improve reliability performance. Understanding of MOC process is desired. 6.Root Cause Analysis: Participate in Root Cause Analysis or Causal Learning Investigations as necessary to support reliability improvement or at the direction of asset leadership/senior reliability engineers. Develop strong skills for RCA methodologies, particularly 5-Why and Causal Learning. Data Analysis and automation: Act as the custodian of reliability and maintenance data, using existing systems to monitor and report KPIs, as well as identify bad actors and threats to reliability using reliability engineering tools. Basic use of data automation tools. 7.Spare/Material Management: Participate in periodic reviews on critical spares, min/max inventory levels, Material Master coding and support on list of materials creation and upload into CMMS. Also help to develop understanding of linking the material management with Maintenance to identify the source of requirements and bring down the overall maintenance cost by optimizing inventory/material cost.
