• Experience with PM optimization, equipment strategies, predictive maintenance, and condition monitoring preferred.
• Experience with API, ASME, Hydraulic Institute, ISO, and other rotating equipment standards preferred.
• Experience with PI System, PI Vision, Mobile Operator, or reliability dashboards preferred.

Responsibilities

• Oversee the site predictive maintenance program for rotating equipment, including vibration monitoring, lubrication analysis, operator rounds, wireless monitoring, and other condition-based monitoring activities.
• Review predictive maintenance findings and coordinate follow-up actions with Maintenance, Operations, Planning, and Reliability.
• Maintain rotating equipment KPIs and reliability dashboards, including MTBR, repeat failures, major repairs, bad actors, PM compliance, PdM compliance, vibration exceptions, and corrective action closure.
• Monitor MTBR and other reliability performance indicators to identify declining equipment performance and recurring failure patterns.
• Review rotating equipment failures and support failure classification, RCFA, corrective action development, and action tracking.
• Oversee preventive maintenance requirements for rotating equipment, including PM task content, frequency, job plan quality, and alignment with equipment criticality and failure modes.
• Recommend PM changes based on failure history, predictive maintenance results, asset criticality, repair history, and operating experience.
• Support the pump reliability program by tracking major repairs, repeat failures, spare utilization, repair quality, and post-repair performance.
• Identify rotating equipment bad actors and develop reliability improvement recommendations to reduce failures, downtime, and maintenance cost.
• Provide technical support to Operations and Maintenance for troubleshooting, repair decisions, startup concerns, lubrication issues, seal failures, vibration issues, and abnormal equipment performance.
• Support Maximo data quality improvements, including asset hierarchy, failure codes, PMs, job plans, repair history, BOMs, and equipment attributes.
• Support PI Vision, Mobile Operator, Maximo, and other reliability tools used to track equipment condition, runtime, PM effectiveness, and spare equipment utilization.
• Develop equipment strategies for critical rotating equipment based on asset criticality, known failure modes, operating context, and reliability risk.
• Coordinate reliability improvement activities with Operations, Maintenance, Engineering, Planning, Safety, Environmental, Purchasing, vendors, repair shops, and contract engineering services.
• Provide technical guidance to engineers, technicians, planners, and field personnel on rotating equipment reliability practices.
• Ability to adjust schedules to support critical equipment issues, turnarounds, startups, and business needs.
• Exposure to work near potentially volatile and combustible materials and chemicals.
