As a Reliability Engineer, you will be a key driver in the RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, and Safety) excellence program. This role requires a blend of rigorous statistical analysis, hands-on testing development, and proactive risk management.
Activities
- Execute the RAMS strategy across all supported product lines.
- Partner with Patient Safety and Quality teams to refine reliability programs and ensure long-term product success.
- Integrate Design for Reliability (DfR) and Design for Six Sigma (DfSS) ideologies into the product lifecycle.
- Design and oversee various testing protocols, including Life Testing, ALT, HALT, HASS, and Durability testing.
- Evaluate and qualify new manufacturing technologies and processes to ensure they meet reliability standards.
- Lead resolution verification efforts to ensure corrective actions are effective.
- Perform advanced data modeling using Weibull Analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, Regression Modeling, and Reliability Growth Assessments.
- Lead Design FMEAs (DFMEA) for new products and recommend specific design changes to mitigate identified risks.
- Analyze warranty trends and hazard rates to provide accurate spending forecasts and target setting for new releases.
- Lead efforts in problem identification and corrective action development to reduce warranty claims.
- Actively participate in product design reviews to advocate for robustness and serviceability.
- Prepare schedules and work estimates for reliability activities across multiple Business Units (BUs).
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Biomedical, Industrial Engineering, or Computer Science (Master’s degree preferred).
- Minimum of 2 years of experience in reliability testing, DfR, or software quality with a Bachelor’s degree; or a Master’s degree with no prior experience.
- Certified Reliability Engineer (CRE), Six Sigma Green Belt, or Black Belt preferred.
- Proficiency in Weibull Analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, Regression modeling, and Hazard analysis.
- Expertise in leading Design FMEAs (DFMEA) and conducting comprehensive Product Risk Assessments.
- Hands-on experience with ALT, HALT, HASS, and Software Reliability testing within a Verification & Validation (V&V) framework.
- Strict adherence to Good Documentation Practices (GDP) and Quality Management Systems (QMS).
- Proven ability to lead Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and implement corrective actions to reduce warranty claims.
You will be contracted by the Randstad and work on assignment with Philips.
