Day in the Life

Based at our New Johnsonville Plant in New Johnsonville, TN, you’ll report to the Asset & Reliability Manager and own an operating area. Your morning might start with a walkdown alongside mechanical crews and operators, followed by troubleshooting a rotating asset, reviewing inspection data for a pressure vessel, or refining a preventive maintenance strategy to balance Mechanical Integrity, reliability, and cost. Afternoons often bring root-cause deep dives, vendor calls to evaluate proposals, and drafting scopes, estimates, and schedules for reliability-focused improvements. Along the way, you’ll prepare RFPs, initiate MOCs, and connect with site reliability engineers and technicians to share learnings and accelerate improvements.

What You’ll Do

  • Serve as the mechanical engineering resource for maintenance and operations—diagnosing failures, recommending repairs/upgrades, and elevating equipment performance.
  • Scrutinize and refine preventive maintenance plans for frequency, scope, and effectiveness to meet reliability, cost, and Mechanical Integrity needs.
  • Develop area equipment expertise; author and review maintenance procedures; support skills development and training.
  • Initiate and drive Management of Change (MOC) for safety, quality, environmental, and cost improvements.
  • Write RFPs and develop basic data for reliability-driven upgrades and equipment end-of-life replacements.
  • Review inspection reports and analyze fitness-for-service, inspection quality, and proper intervals.
  • Build and implement MI/QA, reliability, and PPM programs for the unit.
  • Participate in PHAs and define scopes for capital projects.
  • Lead RCFA teams, kaizen events, and problem-solving workshops.
  • Prepare and audit scopes of work, cost estimates, schedules, and equipment specs.
  • Assess vendor proposals for functionality, cost, and timing; exercise sound engineering judgment.
  • Collaborate with site reliability engineers and technicians to deliver cross-area improvements.

Required Qualifications

  • BS in Mechanical, Materials, or Industrial Engineering.
  • At least 1 year of engineering experience.

  • Ability to lead long-range programs/projects while resolving near-term operational issues.
  • Clear communicator across diverse teams; adept at influencing leaders, peers, and crafts.
  • Comfort taking a hands-on approach with operators and mechanics to drive change.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities concurrently.
  • Capable of wearing a full-face respirator and working in permitted confined spaces.
  • Ability to climb, crawl, and bend as needed.
