Description

Description SUMMARY The Reliability Specialist is passionate about Reliability Centered Maintenance, is self-motivated and works with minimum supervision. This role is responsible for supporting and enhancing equipment reliability and maintenance efforts by owning initiatives on condition monitoring, predictive maintenance (PdM), and failure analysis activities. This role works on continuously improving unplanned downtime and improving overall equipment efficiency through PM Optimization, Pro Active Maintenance and other data-driven maintenance strategies. The reliability specialist schedules planned work that is made ready to schedule by Planning. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Predictive Maintenance & Condition Monitoring Continuously improve PM effectiveness by continuously integrating previous failure modes. Schedule and evaluate results of vibration analysis, thermography, ultrasound, and oil analysis to monitor equipment health. Evaluate the results of tools like SKF Pulse, vibration meters, IR cameras, and other PdM tools to detect early failure signs. Evaluate the results of Electric Motor Control Analysis tools like All Test Pro Motor Genie. Interpret data trends, generate reports on equipment condition and passionately drive Reliability. Failure Analysis & Root Cause Investigation Conduct Root Cause Analysis (RCA) on equipment failures of over 2 hours and tie these into PMs with Maintenance Team Leads. Conduct FMEA (Failure Modes and Effects Analysis) for critical assets with Maintenance Team Leads. Work with maintenance and engineering teams to implement long-term reliability improvements. Lubrication & Asset Health Management Follow and optimize lubrication schedules to prevent premature bearing and gearbox failures. Schedule and evaluate grease and oil sampling analysis and condition-based maintenance. Ensure existing correct lubricant application, storage, and contamination control practices are always followed. Work Execution & Reliability Improvements Evaluate and report weekly team performance metrics like Schedule Compliance, PMs Optimized, and Pro-Active Maintenance work orders created. Track and report weekly the teams’ booked labor hours. Track, evaluate and report weekly scheduled work including PMs that were canceled and work with the Team Leads on continuously getting better. Close all completed work orders after they are audited by Team Leads, helping the team with missed opportunities Participate in equipment overhauls, precision alignment, and balancing to extend asset life.
