## Description

nThe Reliability Engineer serves as a facilitator for Classic Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) Workshops supporting U.S. Navy and other Department of War programs. The position prepares, facilitates, documents, and supports closeout of RCM analyses in accordance with MIL-STD-3034 and applicable customer-approved RCM processes.\n
\n
\nThe Reliability Engineer applies reliability, maintenance, systems-engineering, and technical-analysis principles to evaluate equipment functions, identify failure-related maintenance needs, and develop recommendations to improve readiness, reliability, maintainability, safety, and life-cycle cost. The individual works with government customers, maintainers, operators, technical subject-matter experts, engineers, and analysts to produce complete and traceable RCM analysis products.\n
\n
Essential Duties and Responsibilities\n
\n
\n

 * Workshop Execution: Prepare for, facilitate, document, and support closeout of Classic RCM Workshops for assigned systems and equipment.
\n

 * Process Adherence: Apply MIL-STD-3034 and applicable customer-approved RCM procedures, templates, and analysis methods.
\n

 * Planning Support: Support workshop planning by identifying system scope, technical-data requirements, workshop participants, schedules, pre-work, and analysis deliverables.
\n

 * Discussion Facilitation: Facilitate or co-facilitate multidisciplinary technical discussions involving system functions, functional failures, failure modes, failure effects, maintenance requirements, and maintenance-task selection.
\n

 * Technical Documentation: Develop and maintain RCM analysis products, including system descriptions, functional block diagrams, functional analyses, failure-mode analyses, logic analyses, task recommendations, workshop notes, action-item logs, and technical reports.
\n

 * Gap Analysis: Evaluate existing preventive, corrective, and other maintenance requirements to identify ineffective, unnecessary, missing, or duplicative maintenance.
\n

 * Actionable Advice: Develop recommendations for appropriate maintenance actions, intervals, procedures, inspections, testing, troubleshooting, technical-documentation updates, training, supply support, or other improvements.
\n

 * Data Review: Analyze technical manuals, maintenance records, reliability data, failure reports, operating experience, engineering drawings, and other system documentation.
\n

 * Collaboration: Coordinate with operators, maintainers, engineers, logisticians, program personnel, and technical authorities to obtain required technical input and validate analysis conclusions.
\n

 * Traceability Preservation: Document assumptions, evidence sources, technical issues, stakeholder input, and unresolved action items to ensure traceability of workshop results.
\n

 * Presentations: Prepare technical briefings, reports, findings, and recommendations for customer and internal review.
\n

 * Quality Assurance: Participate in quality reviews of RCM analyses and revise products based on technical feedback.
\n

 * Implementation Support: Support implementation and follow-up of approved RCM maintenance recommendations.
\n

 * Continuous Improvement: Support development and improvement of RCM templates, technical guidance, engineering tools, process documentation, and training materials.
\n

 * Risk & Project Management: Coordinate assigned tasks and deliverables; identify schedule, data, technical, or stakeholder risks to the Senior Engineer or project lead.
