Reliability Engineer, Battery Module
About the role
We are seeking a Reliability Engineer with strong software and data engineering skills to design, build, and deploy intelligent tools and platforms that optimize production reliability in Battery Manufacturing.
Responsibilities
Develop Reliability Software & Platforms: Design and build internal tools, applications, and automation workflows that support predictive maintenance programs, while creating integrations with CMMS, SCADA, IoT, and other data sources to deliver unified dashboards and KPI reporting for OEE, MTBF, and MTTREngineer Data Pipelines & Analytics: Architect scalable data pipelines that ingest and transform high-volume equipment and production data, then apply statistical analyses such as Weibull and fault tree methods to identify failure patterns and build interactive visualizations that highlight downtime drivers and bottlenecks
Implement AI/ML for Predictive Reliability: Develop and deploy machine learning models for predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, and remaining useful life estimation, while building real-time monitoring systems and iteratively improving failure classification models to accelerate root cause analysis and data-driven corrective actions
Drive Cross-Functional Collaboration & Automation: Partner with Reliability, Maintenance, Production, and Controls Engineering teams to translate operational challenges into software solutions, champion AI-assisted workflows, support Management of Change processes, and automate manual reliability tasks including spare parts analysis, work order triage, and maintenance planning
Requirements
Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, or a related Engineering field, or equivalent experience
3+ years of experience building software tools, data pipelines, or ML models in a manufacturing, industrial, or operations environment
Strong programming skills in Python (primary); familiarity with SQL and at least one additional language (e.g., JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Java)
Experience with data engineering tools and frameworks (e.g., Apache Airflow, Spark, dbt, or equivalent)
Proficiency with data visualization and BI platforms (Power BI, Tableau, Grafana, or custom-built dashboards)
Solid understanding of reliability engineering concepts: OEE, MTBF, MTTR, RCM, preventive/predictive maintenance strategies, and failure analysis methodologies
Experience with ML/AI frameworks (scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch) and deploying models to production
Familiarity with time-series analysis, anomaly detection, and predictive maintenance modeling
Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes)
