Programme Context

AVEVA delivers Predictive Analytics, Asset Performance Management, and Process Optimisation solutions across Oil & Gas, Energy, and Industrial operators throughout the Middle East region. These digital solutions monitor critical equipment and operational processes in real time, generating predictive alerts and operational advisories designed to prevent unplanned downtime, extend asset life, improve reliability, and optimise operational performance.

This SME role exists to ensure predictive model outputs are technically interpreted, validated, ope rationalised, and sustained — converting AI-generated insights into measurable operational, reliability, and financial benefits across customer facilities.

The Reliability Engineering SME will serve as the technical lead supporting deployment, operational monitoring, sustainment, governance, and continuous value realisation of AVEVA Predictive Analytics and Asset Performance solutions deployed across customer operations in the Middle East region.

The role combines deep reliability engineering expertise with predictive maintenance, asset performance management, and operational governance capabilities to ensure deployed predictive solutions deliver sustained reliability improvements, maintenance optimisation, operational efficiency, and measurable business value.

The SME will act as the integrator across multiple engineering disciplines — including rotating, static, electrical, process, and integrity domains — ensuring predictive insights translate into effective operational actions, reliability improvements, and quantified programme outcomes.

The role is responsible for establishing and governing the reliability and value realisation framework for deployed predictive solutions, ensuring operational adoption, KPI tracking, continuous improvement, and long‑term sustainment across customer facilities.

• Support end-to-end deployment and operationalisation of AVEVA predictive analytics and asset performance solutions across customer facilities in the Middle East region.
• Provide reliability engineering subject matter expertise during asset onboarding, solution configuration, and model development phases.
• Work closely with analytics, data science, product, and delivery teams to ensure predictive models accurately reflect:
  • Asset criticality
  • Failure modes
  • Reliability risk profiles
  • Maintenance strategies
  • Operational and maintenance workflows
• Support asset criticality assessments, use case definition, and prioritisation of high-value reliability monitoring opportunities across:
  • Rotating equipment
  • Static equipment
  • Electrical systems
  • Process systems
  • Integrity‑critical assets
• Participate in model validation, alert tuning, calibration, and user acceptance testing (UAT) activities prior to go‑live.
• Validate predictive model outputs against historical reliability trends, maintenance history, failure records, and operational performance data.
• Support development of reliability governance frameworks, KPI structures, and value realisation methodologies for deployed solutions.
• Provide engineering input to support expansion of predictive monitoring and reliability optimisation coverage across additional assets, systems, and facilities.

• Lead the reliability governance and value realisation framework for deployed predictive analytics and asset performance solutions.
• Own and maintain programme benefits realisation tracking across all engineering disciplines and customer facilities.
• Consolidate and report realised operational value including:
  • Downtime avoided
  • Maintenance cost savings
  • Production uplift
  • Energy efficiency improvements
  • Reduced equipment failures
  • Improved equipment availability
• Lead bad actor analysis informed by predictive model outputs and coordinate cross‑functional investigations to address recurring failure patterns.
• Apply reliability engineering methodologies including:
  • Reliability Availability Maintainability (RAM) analysis
  • Failure Modes and Effects…
