Reliability Engineer

We're seeking an experienced and proactive Mechanical Reliability Engineer to join our high-performing maintenance and engineering team. In this role, you'll play a key part in improving equipment reliability, optimizing maintenance strategies, and ensuring the long-term mechanical integrity of plant assets.

A strong focus will be placed on condition monitoring and data-driven reliability improvements, using predictive technologies, applying precision maintenance techniques and conducting root cause analysis to minimise downtime and maximise equipment performance.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and implement reliability-centred maintenance (RCM) strategies for mechanical assets, working closely with our major resource sector clients.
• Lead and support condition monitoring programs, including vibration analysis, thermography, oil analysis, ultrasonic testing, and other predictive maintenance techniques.
• Analyse condition monitoring data to identify emerging equipment issues and recommend corrective actions.
• Perform root cause failure analysis (RCFA) and implement sustainable reliability solutions.
• Collaborate with maintenance and operations teams to optimise asset maintenance plans and maintenance strategies.
• Support planning and execution of shutdowns, overhauls, and equipment upgrades.
• Identify and implement continuous improvement initiatives to enhance equipment availability and reduce maintenance costs.
• Provide reliability insights and technical support for capital and improvement projects.
• Complete defect elimination studies by applying advanced field measurement tools such as Motion Amplification and multi-channel data acquisition (vibration, strain, displacement, temperature, pressure and other inputs).

Qualifications & Experience

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering.
• 3-8 years of experience in reliability, maintenance, or mechanical engineering roles.
• Demonstrated experience with condition monitoring techniques and technologies (e.g., vibration analysis, oil analysis, thermography).
• Strong understanding of rotating and static equipment performance and failure modes.
• Proficiency with reliability tools such as RCM, FMECA, RCA, and predictive maintenance analytics.
• Experience with CMMS systems and maintenance data analysis.
• Excellent problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills.
• Certification in vibration analysis, lubrication, thermography, or CMRP or ARP-P is an asset.
• Ability and willingness to travel frequently to remote, heavy industrial sites for projects.
• Experience conducting multi-channel data acquisition, experimental field measurement, strain- and fatigue analysis will be highly prized.
