    Description

    Roles & Responsibilities:
    RCM Analysis Leadership:
    • Independently lead end-to-end Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) studies on rotating, static, electrical and instrumentation assets - from system boundary definition through Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA), criticality ranking, and maintenance task selection.
    • Facilitate and/or perform RCM analysis workshops with client SMEs, Operations and Maintenance stakeholders.
    • Conduct Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) and bad-actor identification to support defect elimination and reliability improvement initiatives.
    ReliaSoft Application & Reliability Modeling:
    • Hands-on use of ReliaSoft suite (Weibull++, BlockSim, XFMEA/RCM++) for failure data analysis, life-data (Weibull) modeling, reliability block diagrams, and RCM/FMEA documentation.
    • Build and maintain failure mode libraries and reliability statistics (MTBF, MTTR, hazard rates) to support proactive maintenance strategy development.
    • Run reliability simulations to validate proposed maintenance task frequency and effectiveness, and to quantify risk/cost trade-offs.
    RCM-to-EAM/SAP Integration:
    • Translate RCM/FMEA outputs into revised maintenance strategies, PM task lists, maintenance items and plans, and load/update them into SAP PM (or equivalent EAM/CMMS such as Maximo).
    • Ensure alignment between ReliaSoft-derived strategies and SAP equipment hierarchy, Functional Location/Technical Object structures, and master data standards.
    • Partner with Master Data/CMMS teams to verify that recommended task intervals, spares linkages, and job plans are correctly reflected and actioned in the client's enterprise system.
    Detailed Technical Execution (Individual Contributor):
    • Own the detailed, hands-on analytical work-product under the direction of the client's program managers - this is an execution-focused role, not a people-management role.
    • Prepare high-quality, audit-ready deliverables: RCM registers, FMEA worksheets, criticality assessments, maintenance strategy documents, and gap-analysis reports.
    • Manage own workload and timelines across multiple equipment groups/assets in parallel, escalating risks or resourcing gaps promptly.
    Stakeholder Collaboration & Reporting:
    • Work closely with client reliability/maintenance managers, operations, and engineering disciplines to validate assumptions, findings and recommendations.
    • Present analysis outcomes and improvement recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
    • Support knowledge transfer and coaching of client/LTTS junior engineers on RCM methodology and ReliaSoft tool usage, where required.
    External Skills and Expertise:
    • Reliability Engineer - RCM & Asset Data Integration (Refinery Reliability Program).
