Maintenance Disrupted

On this week's episode, I welcome Steve Dobie back to the show.  Steve recently got a new job as a reliability engineer at Teck Resources so we discuss finding a job in reliability.  I give you some statistics that I pulled together from 41 reliability job postings on Indeed.ca  If you'd like a copy of those statistics, send me an email to [email protected].

A few of you have asked me which conferences I'll be attending in 2020.  Right now, I have nothing on the books but I am looking for a few to attend.  That being said, I'm hoping to attend the SMRP conference, Ultrasound World conference and the MainTrain conference.  If there are any others, you'd like me to check out or if you'd like me to speak at your event, please let me know by sending me an email to [email protected] or send me a message on LinkedIn.
