Responsibilities

• Comply with all Barrick health, safety, and environmental policies, procedures, and the Mines Health & Safety Act; visibly lead by example on Zero Harm.
• Build and own the North Mara HME reliability programme from the ground up: establish FMEA libraries, defect elimination frameworks, failure mode prioritisation, and condition-based maintenance strategies for the full HME fleet.
• Lead, coordinate, and develop the Condition Monitoring Officers (×2): establish structured data collection schedules, reporting standards, and individual development pathways.
• Own the site condition monitoring programme: oil analysis and interpretation, filter cut analysis, magnetic plug/screen inspection, VIMS data analysis, hydraulic cylinder rating, and undercarriage monitoring.
• Develop and maintain a comprehensive defect register; capture all outstanding deferred defects and drive systematic resolution targeting ≥75% eliminated within 12 months.
• Lead root cause failure analysis (RCFA) for all significant equipment failures; ensure findings are documented in SAP and corrective actions are tracked to closure.
• Conduct Pareto analysis on failure modes across the fleet; produce monthly failure trend reports and prioritise the highest-impact defect elimination initiatives.
• Drive the transition from reactive, time-based maintenance to a condition-based, predictive model: develop CBM trigger criteria, intervention thresholds, and condition-response work packages for all critical components.
• Support PCR quality assurance: conduct pre-PCR component condition assessments, establish post-overhaul QC inspection protocols, and track first-time quality pass rates (≥90% target).
• Drive SAP PM asset health discipline: failure coding coverage, component life counter accuracy, maintenance history completeness, and Phase Model functionality.
• Collaborate with the Senior Planner to ensure reliability insights — deterioration trends, failure predictions, and defect elimination findings — feed directly into long-term component replacement plans and the PCR programme schedule.
• Implement Barrick AME asset health and condition-based maintenance standards at site level, aligned to the direction of the HME Asset Health Specialist (AME Regional).
• Manage OEM warranty claims for condition-related failures across the fleet; ensure technical documentation is complete and warranty recovery is maximised.
• Produce weekly, monthly, and annual reliability KPI and asset health reports for the Superintendent – Planning & Reliability.
• Perform any other duties as assigned by the Superintendent – Planning & Reliability.

Qualification requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Maintenance Engineering, or a related discipline — required.
• Professional certification in reliability engineering or asset management (CMRP, CRE, or equivalent) — strongly preferred.
• Computer literacy: SAP PM, Microsoft Office Suite — required.
• Valid driver’s licence.

Experience and competencies needed.

• Minimum 5–8 years’ experience in reliability engineering or asset health management in open cut mining or heavy industrial operations, with a strong HME fleet focus.
• Proven hands-on experience implementing and operating condition monitoring programmes: oil analysis, filter cut analysis, magnetic plug/screen inspection, VIMS, and hydraulic cylinder rating.
• Demonstrated experience conducting FMEA, RCA/RCFA, and structured defect elimination programmes in a production mining environment — required.
• Experience building a site reliability programme in an operation characterized by chronic reactive maintenance and a high temporary repair rate.
• Strong SAP PM asset health experience: failure coding discipline, component life counters, Phase Model, and maintenance history management.
• Solid understanding of HME fleet systems (CAT 777E, 6020B, D9, 992, Sandvik drill rigs) and their known failure modes is advantageous.
• Exposure to complementary asset health and predictive maintenance platforms (OEM-agnostic condition data consolidation and rules-based failure prediction tools) is advantageous.
• Ability to coach and develop maintenance teams on reliability principles and condition monitoring practices.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and report-writing skills.
• Medical fitness for the mining environment.
