Job Description

What impact you will make:
As a Reliability Engineer Co-op within the METEM team, you will ensure the long-term health and performance of the specialized assets that build the world's most advanced gas turbines.

You will focus on minimizing equipment downtime and optimizing maintenance strategies for non-traditional machining technologies, directly impacting the plant's ability to meet global energy demands.

Depending on your background, you will support the reliability of the following technology areas:

* Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) & Fast Hole Drilling (FHD): Supporting the uptime of high-precision drilling equipment used for turbine nozzles and buckets. * Electrochemical Machining (ECM): Managing the reliability of specialized industrial electrochemistry equipment, gaining experience in chemical handling systems and electrical power supplies.

What you will do:
• Asset Performance Management: Monitor and analyze equipment performance data to identify trends in unplanned downtime and equipment degradation.

• Root Cause Analysis (RCA): Lead or participate in "Deep Dive" investigations into equipment failures to identify root causes and implement permanent corrective actions.

• Maintenance Strategy: Help develop and refine Preventative Maintenance (PM) and Predictive Maintenance (PdM) schedules for compleex EDM and ECM assets to improve Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF).

• Criticality Analysis: Evaluate equipment criticality to prioritize maintenance activities and optimize spare parts inventory for high-impact production machines.

• Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner with Maintenance Technicians and Process Engineers to troubleshoot recurring mechanical, electrical, or chemical system issues.

• Standards & Safety: Enhance and maintain technical knowledge of current standards, codes, and procedures regarding safe and effective use of production equipment. You will focus on minimizing equipment downtime and optimizing maintenance strategies for non-traditional machining technologies, directly impacting the plant's ability to meet global energy demands.
