Reliability Engineer

The Reliability Engineer supports the execution and continuous improvement of reliability programs for mission‑critical data center infrastructure across a portfolio of sites. This role applies reliability principles, data analysis, and engineering fundamentals to help reduce risk, improve asset performance, and prevent recurring failures across power, cooling, and control systems.

The Reliability Engineer works under the guidance of senior engineers and established standards, contributing to reliability assessments, maintenance strategy development, and incident investigations. This role is well‑suited for an engineer continuing to build depth in reliability engineering while gaining exposure to complex, live operational environments.

• Support the development and execution of risk‑based maintenance and inspection strategies for mission‑critical power and cooling systems.
• Apply RCM concepts to evaluate maintenance effectiveness and identify improvement opportunities.
• Assist in assessing tradeoffs between maintenance activities, operational risk, redundancy, and lifecycle cost.
• Participate in PM quality reviews, task validations, and efforts to remove low‑value maintenance.

• Review SOPs, MOPs, and EOPs to support operational readiness and risk mitigation.
• Assist with system‑level risk assessments for planned work and abnormal operating conditions.
• Partner with site teams to improve CMMS data quality and work management discipline.
• Support reliability investigations and follow‑up actions under the direction of senior engineers.

• Contribute to condition‑monitoring programs such as oil analysis, thermography, vibration, battery monitoring, and controls analytics.
• Analyze equipment performance data to identify early signs of degradation or reliability risk.
• Develop basic reliability metrics and trending to support proactive decision‑making.
• Translate analytical findings into recommended actions for maintenance or risk reduction.

• Assist in maintaining site and portfolio critical spares recommendations.
• Identify spares gaps and support corrective actions with Supply Chain and Operations.
• Participate in asset condition assessments to inform lifecycle planning and capital discussions.
• Support preparation of data and analysis for capital project justifications.

• Participate in RCAs and FMEAs for operational incidents and near misses.
• Help identify contributing factors related to design, maintenance, or procedures.
• Track corrective actions to ensure lessons learned are implemented and sustained.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives aimed at reducing repeat failures and risk.

• Work closely with Senior Reliability Engineers, site engineers, and operations teams.
• Build proficiency in reliability methods, root cause analysis, and data interpretation.
• Contribute to the improvement of reliability standards, templates, and playbooks.
• Continue developing technical and analytical capability within mission‑critical systems.

• B.S. in Engineering (Electrical, Mechanical, Industrial, or other related technical field of study) or equivalent industry experience.
• 3–7 years of experience in reliability engineering, maintenance engineering, or facilities engineering.
• Working knowledge of RCM, RCA, and FMEA concepts.
• Foundational understanding of mission‑critical infrastructure such as UPS, generators, switch gear, chillers, cooling towers, CRAH/CRAC units, and BMS/EPMS.
• Experience supporting maintenance programs or operational risk assessments in live environments.
• Ability to analyze CMMS, condition‑monitoring, and operational data to identify trends.
• Proficiency with Excel and basic data visualization tools.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills; able to present findings to technical and operations teams.

• Exposure to predictive maintenance or condition‑based monitoring programs.
• Familiarity with basic data analysis or scripting tools (Excel advanced functions, Power BI, or similar).
