Develops moderately complex specifications, conceptual and final designs, cost estimates and provides maintenance support for the procurement or modification of equipment systems (e.g., ovens, autoclaves, furnaces, tank lines, etc.). Reviews specifications and/or designs to assess compliance with customer requirements, codes and applicable regulations by applying knowledge of process engineering, practices, and materials. Communicates problems and issues to others for resolution. Integrates the activities of multiple engineering disciplines, outside consultants and government agencies. Performs moderately complex conceptual analysis to determine the cause of asset failures and reduction in asset capacity by using reliability tools and methods (e.g., life cycle analysis, condition based maintenance, root cause failure methodology, mean time between failures, fault tree analysis, etc.). Facilitates the implementation of moderately complex improvements in asset effectiveness, availability, and maintainability to specify configuration of new assets in order to support reliability programs. Performs and documents condition code analysis of equipment as part of a team. Reviews records, inspects, measures, and tests to document assets operating and maintainability condition for the purpose of determining whether to continue to operate, repair, surplus, or replace.
