Your Work Shapes the World at Caterpillar Inc.

When you join Caterpillar, you're joining a global team who cares not just about the work we do – but also about each other. We are the makers, problem solvers, and future world builders who are creating stronger, more sustainable communities.

We are seeking an expert and results-driven Condition Monitoring leader to supervise and manage a team of Condition Monitoring Advisors (CMAs) responsible for improving the health, reliability, and performance of Caterpillar equipment fleets.

• Collaborate with global condition monitoring teams to develop, share, and implement best practices.
• Establish standard work and lead continuous process improvement across all CMA activities.
• Provide oversight of analytical practices to ensure accuracy, consistency, and early detection of emerging machine issues.
• Ensure the CMA team effectively leverages Caterpillar purpose-built condition monitoring tools to maximize uptime and customer value.
• Maintain expertise across all five elements of Condition Monitoring, while building depth and capability within the team.
• Identify opportunities to enhance processes, introduce new analytics, and advance proactive and predictive maintenance strategies through the CMAs daily work.
• Manage recruitment, retention, onboarding, and skills development for Condition Monitoring Advisors.
