4 Days Old

Job Description

TRG Manufacturing Search Division has been engaged by a successful heavy industrial manufacturer to recruit a Mechanical Reliability Engineer for one of its busiest U.S. plants. This is a great opportunity for someone who loves getting into the details of how equipment works-and how to keep it working. You'll be the go-to problem solver for mechanical issues, leading RCAs, improving PM strategies, and helping the team move from reactive to proactive maintenance.

You won't be stuck behind a desk-this role is hands-on and highly visible. You'll be in the field with the techs, coaching operators, digging into data in SAP, and working directly with vendors to keep the plant running at peak performance. The right person brings strong technical chops, solid communication skills, and a natural ability to earn trust and drive change.

This is a great fit for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments like chemical plants or papermills and enjoys tackling complex challenges head-on. If you're passionate about equipment reliability, continuous improvement, and making a real impact where it matters, we'd love to talk.

Background:

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field is required.
3+ years of experience in reliability, maintenance, or mechanical engineering-ideally in a chemical plant, papermill, or similar heavy industrial setting.
Comfortable working hands-on with equipment, leading RCAs, and partnering with teams on the floor to solve recurring issues.
Familiar with SAP or other CMMS tools and experienced with predictive maintenance methods like vibration analysis and lubrication programs.
