Reporting to the Director, Global Reliability, this role is a field-level executor of the Newell Brands Strategic Equipment Management Policy (SEMP) - the company's governing framework for how assets are planned, acquired, operated, maintained, and retired across the global supply chain network. The Sr. Manager translates SEMP requirements into site-level programs, assessments, and improvement plans, ensuring policy intent is operationalized consistently across assigned sites. This role owns hands-on reliability engineering deliverables: asset criticality assessments, fleet management analysis, condition monitoring program builds, PM optimization, failure mode investigations, and reliability KPI reporting. The Sr. Manager acts as a working technical lead, supporting the fleet management strategy by executing site-level programs that feed network-wide asset intelligence - guiding site-level reliability engineers and maintenance teams through structured improvement initiatives while managing multiple concurrent workstreams and site engagements. This role is a key execution engine for the Global Reliability Program within the ERA Strategic Master Plan.\nKEY RESPONSIBILITIES\nReliability Program Execution\nExecute site-level reliability assessments using the ERA reliability framework: asset registry validation, criticality ranking (FMECA-based), PM plan audit, and condition monitoring gap analysis across manufacturing sites and DC facilities.\nDevelop and implement PM optimization plans using RCM principles, condition-based triggers, and failure mode data; establish PM intervals grounded in equipment OEM data and operational history.\nLead condition monitoring program deployment at assigned sites, including vibration analysis routes, oil sampling schedules, thermographic inspection programs, and ultrasound surveys.\nExecute the Tribo Program at assigned sites: conduct Tribo Scorecard assessments, develop site-level lubrication improvement plans, support development of on-site tribology SMEs, and track progress against network Tribo standards defined by the Director, Global Reliability.\nConduct and lead root cause failure analysis (RCFA) investigations for chronic failures and high-impact asset events; own corrective action tracking through closure.\nBuild and maintain failure mode libraries and asset-specific maintenance task lists within MicroMain CMMS.\nFleet Management Execution\nExecute fleet management assessments within assigned site portfolios: document asset populations by class (motors, drives, compressors, conveyors, automation equipment, etc.), validate fleet criticality ratings, and identify fleet-level PM standardization gaps.\nContribute fleet performance data to network-level benchmarking; identify poor-performing assets within a fleet class and recommend lifecycle interventions (condition-based replacement, refurbishment, or standardization).\nSupport the Director in developing capital replacement schedules for critical fleet segments; provide site-level asset condition inputs to long-range capital planning.\nImplement fleet-based spare parts strategies at assigned sites, including kitting standards and critical spare identification aligned to fleet criticality tiers.\nCMMS & Data Management\nDrive asset data quality within MicroMain: asset hierarchy integrity, PM plan completeness, labor hour capture, and work order classification accuracy.\nGenerate reliability KPI reports including PMR, MTBF, MTTR, planned vs. unplanned maintenance ratio, and backlog analysis at site and regional levels.\nSupport development of reliability analytics dashboards in coordination with the ERA AI & Digital Enablement team.\nIdentify data gaps in CMMS cost fields and labor actuals; develop site-specific data governance improvement plans.\nSite Engagement & Coaching\nPartner with site Engineering Managers and Maintenance Supervisors to build local reliability ownership and PM discipline at the front line.\nExecute PEAK EFO pillar assessments at assigned sites, evaluating AM and PM pillar maturity against global standards; document gaps, develop site-level improvement plans, and track progression through defined maturity stages in alignment with the Director's network-wide EFO program.\nFacilitate reliability-focused kaizen events, PM standardization workshops, and condition monitoring training at assigned sites.\nSupport development of site Reliability Engineers through on-site coaching, structured work plans, and technical mentorship.\nTravel to assigned manufacturing sites (domestic and international) on a regular cadence to assess program execution and drive improvement.\nProgram Management & Reporting\nManage concurrent reliability improvement projects across a portfolio of 4-8 manufacturing sites; maintain project plans, milestone tracking, and risk logs.\nReport site-level PMR, OEE, and condition monitoring adoption metrics to the Director, Global Reliability on a regular cadence.\nParticipate in PEAK operating reviews, contributing reliability KPIs and site action plans to the monthly/quarterly cadence.\nSupport development of reliability investment business cases, cost avoidance analyses, and capital justification documentation.\nCross-Functional Collaboration\nCoordinate with ERA Automation and OT teams to integrate condition monitoring sensors and edge devices into the site OT network architecture.\nPartner with Operations to align reliability program priorities with production scheduling, planned outage windows, and capital projects.\nQUALIFICATIONS\nRequired\nBachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical discipline.\n7+ years of experience in reliability engineering, maintenance engineering, or asset management in a manufacturing environment.\nHands-on experience with condition monitoring technologies: vibration analysis, oil analysis, thermography, or equivalent.\nExperience with CMMS platforms for asset management, PM planning, and work order execution.\nWorking knowledge of RCM, FMECA, PM optimization, and root cause failure analysis methodologies.\nDemonstrated ability to manage multiple workstreams and site engagements simultaneously.\nPreferred\nCMRP, CRL, or Category I/II vibration analyst certification (ISO 18436 or equivalent).\nExperience with MicroMain or similar CMMS platforms.\nFamiliarity with PEAK, Lean, or Six Sigma methodologies.\nInternational manufacturing site experience; LATAM or EMEA exposure preferred.\nExperience integrating condition monitoring data with industrial analytics or AI platforms.\nCOMPETENCIES\nStrong hands-on technical capability in reliability engineering disciplines\nStructured problem solver with a data-driven approach to failure analysis\nEffective communicator with site-level teams and program leadership\nThe Remote base pay range for this position is from {MIN AMOUNT} to {MAX AMOUNT}.
