Drive Uptime. Eliminate Failure. Build Systems That Last.

We're actively building a pipeline of high-impact Reliability Engineers to support leading manufacturing organizations focused on asset performance, operational excellence, and plant modernization.

This role is critical to reducing downtime, extending asset life, and implementing data-driven maintenance strategies that directly impact production and profitability.

If you have experience with RCM, FMEA, predictive maintenance, and reliability strategy, this is a strong opportunity to step into high-visibility, high-impact roles.

What You'll Do:

• Develop and implement Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) programs
• Lead FMEA / criticality analysis to identify and mitigate risk
• Drive predictive and preventive maintenance strategies
• Analyze and improve key metrics:
  • MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures)
  • MTTR (Mean Time to Repair)
  • Equipment uptime and reliability trends
• Perform root cause analysis (RCA) on chronic equipment failures
• Partner with maintenance and operations to eliminate recurring issues
• Support CMMS optimization and maintenance planning
• Identify opportunities to improve asset lifecycle performance and cost efficiency

What You Bring:

• 4+ years of experience in:
  • Reliability Engineering
  • Maintenance Engineering
  • Industrial / Manufacturing environments
• Strong experience with:
  • RCM, FMEA, RCA methodologies
  • Predictive maintenance tools and strategies
• Familiarity with CMMS systems (SAP, Maximo, etc.)
• Data-driven mindset with ability to translate insights into action
• Strong collaboration with maintenance, engineering, and operations teams

Highly Desired:

• Experience in:
  • Heavy manufacturing (metals, chemicals, building materials, etc.)
  • Food & beverage or high-speed production environments
• Exposure to:
  • Vibration analysis, thermography, oil analysis
  • Reliability analytics and condition-based monitoring
• Lean / Six Sigma experience

Compensation:

• $95,000 – $135,000 base salary
• Higher for senior-level or plant-wide reliability ownership
• Many roles include:
  • Bonus opportunities
  • Relocation assistance
  • Strong benefits packages

Why These Opportunities:

• Direct impact on plant performance, uptime, and profitability
• High demand, low supply skillset strong career stability
• Opportunities to lead modernization and reliability transformation
• Visibility with plant and executive leadership
