Sodexo is currently seeking a Reliability Engineer to provide support for our Life Science Client located in Rahway, New Jersey. The Reliability Engineer will play a crucial role in managing and maintaining a substantial backlog of initiatives and strategic changes to assets within a dynamic campus environment. We are looking for an organized engineer with a strong grasp of technology and tools to direct and manage work streams for change control, risk management, and resource constraints. This role requires adherence to existing standards while identifying and enforcing industry best practices, all within the scope of EHS, Quality, Reliability, Engineering, and Service Level Agreements.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage the maintenance strategy for the site campus, encompassing preventive maintenance plans, asset life cycle and conditions, failure history, and internal references to ensure data integrity and accountability.
  • Provide a prioritized backlog of solutions and outstanding issues related to asset condition and maintenance.
  • Ensure the accuracy and completeness of SAP master data information through physical and digital verification of asset master data and standards implementation.
  • Maintain an up-to-date reference of data sources for various work streams and digital and analog tools, including SAP, D365, SMS, PdM (Azima, ThermoStudios), SharePoints, and other relevant sources.
  • Timely and accurate reporting of ad hoc or recurring reports for compliance or internal review of metrics and key performance indicators.
  • Ensure the safe, compliant, and efficient operation of reliability processes and work execution.

The ideal candidate for this role will:

  • Be self-driven and able to work autonomously. While extensive onboarding training on systems and methods will be provided, the majority of the work is carried out without specific instructions.
  • Possess technical acumen with functional knowledge of mechanical, electrical, and automation systems. Comfortable working in industrial machine rooms as well as utilizing extensive spreadsheets and databases.
  • Be process-oriented and accustomed to documenting findings and conversations when engaging with experts on complex topics.
  • Have a strong foundation in effective communication skills. This role will involve interactions with experts who may not have an engineering background but understand the impact and history of assets and systems.
  • Be inclined to learn. The successful candidate will receive training in various proprietary software and custom tools such as SAP, D365, PowerBI, Excel, and other job aides. While experience with similar systems like Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) is beneficial, it is more important to possess a strong general background in Excel or professional software to facilitate skill transfer.

The salary range for this position is $100-110k annually
