All of our dedicated associates possess a strong continuing focus on safety, reliability and environmental compliance.Open the door to your future at AmSty!Overview:Responsibilities include developing the facilities fixed asset strategies that could adversely affect thefacility or business operations. The Reliability Engineer will provide technical support and oversee thefixed equipment mechanical integrity programs governed by API 510, 570 and 653. The ReliabilityEngineer will also facilitate development of the facility maintenance strategy focused on fixed equipment. This includes solving production losses through application of most effective technology and tools toenable the plant to meet its business objectives. This result is achieved by focusing on those opportunitiesthat over a long-term period or historically have impacted the plant's measured asset capability and theopportunities identified as "high-risk" in risk assessments, reliability models and audits.Primary ResponsibilitiesEnsures proper completion of inspections and implementation of all environmental, safety, compliance and security requirements. Plans and achieves Asset Capability and Asset Mechanical Reliability based on business objectives. Participates in the facilitation and implementation of the Apollo RCI process to include application of the cause and effect methodology in all areas where reliability opportunities are identified and where the RCI triggers are met. Develops and maintains data that identifies the unit operations, equipment, process systems that identifies the value of opportunities for improvement. This long-term cost of ownership evaluation includes Excel spreadsheets and JMP tools that are data driven. Evaluates and quantifies the impact projects such as equipment reconfigurations, design changes, equipment quality will have on the plant's objectives. Evaluates effectiveness of individual aspects of the PPM program by showing quantitatively the impact of failures and PPM. Lead the Risk Based Inspection (RBI 581) program in APM, run risk analisis, update damage mechanisms.Analyzes asset utilization and cost data to develop and prioritize a list of reliability opportunities. Evaluates/validates the impact of corrective actions that impact availability/reliability and leverages solutions across the site. Provides reliability input to TICA/Project activities. Participates in Process Simplification, Value Engineering, Maintenance Strategy, Reliability Modeling efforts. Manage the compliance inspection plan and registration process for PRDs in the MICE programUses reliability engineering principles and tools (Weibull, RCI, FMEA) to increase AC and AMR. Participates in plant health study and efforts to implement corrective action to maintain or improve plant health. Makes recommendations for operation, repairs and replacement of plant equipment based upon history, observations, engineering, operations and maintenance best practices. Applies long term cost of ownership and reliability engineering principles in conjunction with the discipline teams and technical resource networks to design reliability into our purchasing requirements. Provide equipment reliability and performance data to the business and leadership teams.
