Shape reliability every day in Lexington, KY

Picture your morning: you pull on your PPE, open your route on a handheld, and step onto the plant floor. Motors hum, fans whir, and gearboxes turn—each with a signature you can read. By mid‑day, you’ve captured vibration data across pumps, compressors, and gearboxes, then stepped into the control room to troubleshoot a VFD and soft‑starter. Before you leave, you’ve translated findings into clear, actionable recommendations that prevent unplanned downtime and improve asset health. That’s a typical day for our Rotating Machinery Condition Monitoring Specialist.

What you’ll do

Execute route-based vibration data collection, analysis, and reporting across rotating assets (motors, pumps, gearboxes, fans, compressors, etc.).

Diagnose faults and provide condition monitoring insights to reduce failures and extend equipment life.

Troubleshoot motor control systems, including VFDs and soft‑starters, in partnership with maintenance and engineering.

Develop concise reliability reports with corrective actions and prioritization.

Collaborate closely with maintenance, engineering, and operations to optimize performance across mixed industrial applications.

What you bring

ISO or ASNT Vibration Analysis Certification – CAT II (required); CAT III is a strong plus.

2+ years in vibration analysis, reliability, or rotating equipment maintenance.

Working knowledge of motor controls, VFDs, and industrial electrical systems.

Hands‑on experience with vibration platforms/software (CSI/Emerson).
