TL;DR · Senior Equipment Reliability Engineer

As a Sr. Equipment Reliability Engineer within the Amazon Leo Maintenance Group, you will drive equipment reliability and availability across production lines for satellite manufacturing. You will lead root cause failure analysis investigations for downtime events, develop reliability-centered maintenance strategies including FMEA and criticality assessments, and provide engineering support for capital projects and equipment modifications. Your daily work involves analyzing performance data like MTBF and MTTR to identify chronic losses while managing CMMS data integrity and spare parts strategies. The role requires expertise in structured methodologies such as 5-Why and Fishbone analysis, along with proficiency in major CMMS platforms like Hexagon EAM or SAP PM. You will also manage technical documentation and mentor others on reliability best practices to ensure the continuous operation of critical systems including thermal vacuum chambers and space simulation systems.

What you'll do

  • Lead and facilitate root cause failure analysis (RCFA) investigations for significant equipment downtime events.
  • Develop and maintain reliability programs including FMEA, criticality assessments, and RCM strategies.
  • Provide engineering support for capital projects, equipment installations, and modifications to production systems.
  • Analyze performance data such as MTBF, MTTR, and OEE to identify and prioritize improvement opportunities.
  • Partner with manufacturing engineering on design reviews to ensure maintainability of new or modified equipment.
  • Manage CMMS data integrity, asset hierarchy, work order quality, and failure coding accuracy.
  • Develop and refine preventive and predictive maintenance strategies for production assets.
  • Manage critical spare parts strategy and budgets for reliability-critical equipment.

What we're looking for

  • Must be a U.S. citizen, national, permanent resident, or lawfully admitted as a refugee or granted asylum.
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical field, or 4+ years of reliability engineering experience in manufacturing/infrastructure.
  • 5+ years of combined experience in maintenance management, maintenance engineering, reliability engineering, or equipment engineering in an automated manufacturing environment.
  • Demonstrated experience leading RCFA/RCA investigations using structured methodologies like 5-Why, Fishbone, or Fault Tree Analysis.
  • 3+ years of hands-on experience with a major CMMS platform including asset hierarchy management and work order configuration.
  • Experience leading or supporting CMMS implementation and rollout including system configuration, data migration, and user training.
  • Working knowledge of reliability principles including FMEA, RCM, and Weibull analysis.
  • Export control laws and regulations, candidates.
