Reliability Engineering Department
The Reliability Engineering Team is responsible for the overall health of critical systems across Vantage global facilities. For each of the major systems Electrical, Mechanical, and Controls, the Reliability Engineering team is responsible for ensuring success in the commissioning stages of new construction, evaluating and improving the reliability and performance of existing critical infrastructure, sustaining equipment operational availability through maintenance program design, providing ongoing technical support to the Site Operations Teams, as well as providing systems reliability and maintainability feedback to the Design Engineering teams for future design considerations.
Position Description
The Reliability Engineer for electrical systems is responsible for the overall functional health of critical power systems. This responsibility includes oversight of facility acceptance testing, electrical system maintenance planning, and Site Operations technical support. Requirements for this position include full familiarity with electrical systems arrangements, equipment types, electrical system protection components, electrical switchgear automation and control components, onsite power generation, and critical power distribution. The electrical Reliability Engineer understands potential system failures and extended effects of those failures, appropriate failure response actions, as well as maintenance and electrical testing techniques.
Also required is an understanding of electrical system theory, an ability to read drawings and schematics, and an ability to identify likely failure points in design. The electrical reliability engineer acts as an advisor for Site Operations to reference as needed and has enough experience to train technicians to the level of effective troubleshooting. The mechanical systems Reliability Engineer regularly interfaces the Vantage Design Engineering team, the Automation Systems Group, and Facility Operations teams.
Essential Job Functions
Ensure newly built systems meet design intent and perform without issue during the facility acceptance testing phases of new construction.
Design maintenance programs to maximize equipment operability and efficiency while minimizing life cycle costs.
Understand potential equipment failures and provide full technical support Facility Operations teams in the event of a critical system failure.
Conduct root cause analysis reviews with site teams and key OEM vendors and develop a corrective action program.
Provide systems reliability and maintainability feedback to the Design Engineering teams for future design considerations.
