The Role

• The Reliability/Integrity Engineer will be responsible for diagnosing failure modes, improving equipment reliability and converting inspection, condition-monitoring and integrity data into practical maintenance and client recommendations.
• The role will assess asset condition, degradation mechanisms and associated risks, lead or support root-cause analysis, expand appropriate predictive-maintenance practices and produce technically sound reliability and integrity reports.
• The role will also ensure that changes to design, maintenance, inspection or operating requirements are appropriately assessed, verified and documented

What You’ll Do

• Reliability & Integrity Analysis

• Assess asset condition, failure modes, degradation mechanisms and integrity risks using available technical data.

• Analyse inspection, condition-monitoring and equipment data to identify reliability and integrity concerns.

• Diagnose recurring or significant equipment failures and determine appropriate technical actions.

• Prioritise reliability and integrity concerns based on evidence, risk and potential consequence.

• Develop practical maintenance and client recommendations from reliability and integrity findings.

• Root-Cause Analysis & Corrective Action

• Lead or support disciplined Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for priority equipment failures and reliability issues.

• Identify underlying causes and contributing factors associated with repeat failures.

• Translate RCA findings into clear corrective and preventive actions with defined owners and timelines.

• Monitor agreed actions through to closure.

• Verify the effectiveness of completed corrective and preventive actions.

• Predictive Maintenance & Condition Monitoring

• Identify appropriate applications for condition monitoring and predictive-maintenance techniques.
