Reliability Engineer – RCM Specialist

About the role

The Reliability Engineer will provide robust engineering support by applying Reliability‑Centered Maintenance (RCM) to determine maintenance requirements for physical assets within OQ8’s operating context. The role involves systematic analysis, corrective action development, and cross‑functional collaboration to ensure assets perform reliably.

Key responsibilities

• Conduct RCM assessments of engineering incidents and determine appropriate maintenance strategies.
• Develop, implement, and monitor corrective actions based on root‑cause investigations.
• Prepare comprehensive reports including case root‑cause analysis, recommendations, and failure‑trend monitoring.
• Collaborate with engineering, maintenance, operations, and safety teams to drive reliability improvements.
• Guide and coach junior engineers on RCM methodology and best practices.
• Maintain compliance with OQ8 policies, international standards, and HSE requirements.

Required profile

• Engineering degree or equivalent technical background.
• Proven experience in reliability engineering, RCM, and maintenance strategy development.
• Strong analytical mindset with ability to translate findings into actionable plans.
• Effective communication skills for cross‑functional teamwork.

Required skills

• Reliability‑Centered Maintenance (RCM) methodology
• Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
• Root Cause Analysis techniques (5 Whys, Fishbone/Ishikawa diagram)
• Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)
• Pareto Analysis
