Job Summary
Define what production-ready means for the next generation of fulfilment technology. As a Reliability Engineer within the New Technology Introduction (NTI) team you will be the primary reliability subject matter expert for emerging automation and robotics from autonomous mobile robots and robotic picking systems to next-generation sortation and material handling equipment. Youll identify where new systems fall short of maintainability serviceability and reliability standards work with development teams to find solutions and update requirements to prevent issues from recurring across the network. You will engage with engineering teams vendors and operations partners to represent RME reliability requirements provide input into revised designs and evolve standards to keep pace with new technology types. You will balance operational needs with technical constraints striving to optimise system design for long-term performance while maintaining a strong focus on standards scalability and supportability. As the team scales youll have the opportunity to shape reliability standards that become the baseline for our global network and mentor future team members. You will be based in North America and travel to development sites across NA with international travel as needed.
Key job responsibilities
What youll do: Lead reliability assessments and design reviews for new automation and robotics technologies identifying gaps in maintainability serviceability and reliability and working with development teams to resolve them before deployment.
Define and maintain reliability standards maintenance strategies and serviceability requirements updating them as new technology types reveal gaps.
Conduct FMEA reliability modelling and life cycle cost analysis working with development teams on design improvements and tracking MTBF MTTR availability and maintainability KPIs.
Partner with engineering teams vendors and stakeholders to represent RME reliability requirements during design pilot and full-scale rollout phases.
Develop preventive maintenance programs spare parts strategies and maintenance documentation for new technologies.
Investigate equipment failures and performance degradation to identify root causes drive solutions with development teams and update standards to prevent re-occurrence across the network.
Monitor reliability performance metrics identify recurring issues and drive improvements back into standards and readiness criteria.
Identify where maintenance processes are overly complex or inconsistent and drive simplification through updated standards and common requirements.

About the team
NTI (New Technology Integration) sits within Central RME responsible for embedding maintainability reliability and total cost of ownership into new technologies before they reach the field. We ensure next-generation systems meet RME requirements from concept through deployment.
Our vision is to transform RME into a proactive engineering partner influencing design decisions early so that when technology lands at a site it comes with a clear maintenance playbook trained technicians spare parts and a known cost profile.
Were a growing globally distributed team supporting 113 technology programs across robotics sortation and material handling interfacing with Amazon Robotics Applied Sciences FTR OneMHS and GES.
- Bachelors degree in mechanical engineering electrical engineering or an equivalent engineering science or 5 years of professional experience
- 3 years of reliability engineering or maintenance engineering experience in manufacturing logistics automation or industrial environments
- 3 years of experience applying reliability engineering principles including FMEA reliability modeling and life cycle analysis
- Experience developing and implementing maintenance programs for complex technical systems
- 5 years of working directly with engineering teams on technology development or integration projects
- Experience building and evaluating system-level reliability designs for automated systems.
- Certified Reliability Engineer (CRE) or Certified Maintenance and Reliability Professional (CMRP) certification
- Experience in some or all of the following areas: Automated conveyor systems or controls robotics systems electrical and electronic principles blueprint and electrical schematic reading CMMS programs preventive maintenance procedures predictive maintenance technologies industrial electrical industrial controls industrial electronics industrial PC literacy N.E.C
- Experience with reliability analysis tools and methodologies (Weibull analysis reliability block diagrams fault tree analysis). Experience with condition monitoring technologies and predictive maintenance strategies. Knowledge of design for reliability (DFR) design for maintainability (DFM) and design for serviceability (DFS) principles.
