Reliability Engineer

Overview

JLL's Work Dynamics team is seeking a Reliability Engineer to support operations and maintenance of buildings, infrastructure, and equipment assets. Working in collaboration with the Engineering Services Reliability & Asset Management COE, this role implements strategic asset management plans integrating building automation, energy management, maintenance programs, and life-cycle asset management approaches. The position offers growth opportunities, potential to manage junior staff, and support toward globally recognized RAM qualifications.

Essential Functions

Asset Management

Integrates data from BAS, fault detection diagnostics, maintenance programs, and capital planning to develop life-cycle analyses and repair-vs-replace recommendations. Executes site-level Asset Management & Reliability programs, conducts periodic equipment and system audits (safety, compliance, cost savings, energy conservation), and coordinates engineers, technicians, and third-party resources to deliver cost-effective improvements.

Reliability Engineering

Creates and manages PM task plans for continuous improvement and optimization. Ranks asset criticality using RCM approaches and defines cost-beneficial proactive maintenance strategies. Conducts reliability studies, interprets drawings/schematics, develops risk mitigation strategies for critical assets, investigates new technologies, and performs root cause failure analysis (RCFA) to prevent recurrence.

Condition-Based Maintenance

Applies mechanical and electrical knowledge of rotating equipment (pumps, motors, gearboxes, conveyors). Utilizes predictive maintenance technologies including vibration analysis, oil analysis, infrared thermography, ultrasound, and motor current analysis. Implements RCM/CbM/PT&I programs, conducts equipment condition assessments, and drives resolution of chronic "bad actor" equipment through FMEA and defect elimination practices.

Workflow Management

Maintains accurate equipment records, specifications, BOMs, and failure history in CMMS. Develops and tracks reliability KPIs (planned/unplanned work ratios, MTBF, cost metrics, replacement asset value) and collaborates closely with Maintenance and Planning teams.

Capital Asset Renewal/Capital Planning

Executes multi-discipline facility condition assessments across labs, manufacturing, office, and distribution sites in the Americas. Documents findings, prioritizes portfolio-wide capital planning inputs, and supports commissioning for upgrade/renovation/construction projects (PM job plans, maintainability reviews, critical spares).

• 5–10 years' experience implementing RCM and CbM/PdM methods, operating BAS/EMS, and applying asset management, data analytics, and capital planning principles
