Reliability Engineer

Job Summary:

We are seeking a proactive and collaborative Reliability Engineer to support reliability modeling, testing, and analysis activities for large, complex equipment systems. This role requires strong cross-functional engagement with design, systems, manufacturing, and quality teams to drive reliability improvements throughout the product lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities:

• Create, edit, and validate Reliability Block Models (RBM) for complex equipment and critical subsystems.
• Perform reliability analysis using tools such as ReliaSoft applications including Weibull++, BlockSim, and XfRACAS.
• Develop and execute reliability test plans including accelerated life testing methodologies.
• Conduct failure analysis and support root cause investigations for system and subsystem failures.
• Collaborate closely with engineering teams to improve product reliability through design recommendations and corrective actions.
• Evaluate materials, components, and manufacturing techniques from a reliability perspective.
• Support FMEA activities including DFMEA and PFMEA.
• Recommend reliability growth strategies, statistical methods, and process improvements.
• Present reliability findings and recommendations to technical leadership and stakeholders.

Required Qualifications:

• 5 10 years of experience in Reliability Engineering, Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, or related disciplines.
• Experience working with large complex electromechanical equipment or critical subsystems.
• Strong understanding of:
• Reliability engineering principles and best practices
• Reliability Block Modeling
• Failure physics
• Accelerated testing methodologies
• FMEA and reliability test planning
• Experience with reliability tools such as ReliaSoft or equivalent platforms is preferred.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
• Ability to influence cross-functional teams without direct authority.
• Comfortable working in collaborative and fast-paced engineering environments.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with semiconductor or capital equipment industries.
• Familiarity with electron beam (e-beam) tools.
• Exposure to manufacturing reliability and applied failure physics.
• Advanced technical education is a plus, though practical experience is highly valued.
