The Design for Reliability (DfR) Engineer is responsible for applying engineering and statistical knowledge to prevent or reduce the likelihood of failure of internally developed products. The DfR Engineer uses various methodologies and tools to work closely with those who design, develop, test, manufacture, deliver and support our products and services to achieve operational reliability.
Responsibilities
- Guide the project teams in the implementation of reliability engineering methodologies, techniques, standards, procedures and the application of appropriate statistical tools.
- With the project team, set reliability targets for products under development.
- Gather field reliability data, populate the reliability model and identify areas of concern.
- Calculate cumulative effect on final system reliability of individual part reliabilities, identify gaps and determine appropriate actions to achieve customer specified operational reliability.
- Conduct technical risk analysis such as a FMEA to determine specific risk areas. Develop tests to be conducted based as identified by FMEA results.
- Rationalize tests to be conducted to determine sample size, test methods and other details that will produce efficient, statistically valid results.
- Monitor the test program and recommend adjustments as needed to meet reliability targets.
- Participate in technical design reviews and contribute solutions to reliability related issues.
- Coordinate root cause analysis of failed items.
- Compile and communicate lessons learned and ensure prevention of failures by archiving captured knowledge for re-use.
- Monitor and analyze key reliability indicators during product development and after commercialization, and keep management informed.
