Reliability is More than Testing

Speaker: Fred Schenkelberg

During the interview, I turned down a job when I learned the hiring manager expected me, a potential new reliability engineer on the team, to only conduct tests. Creating and assembling a reliable product or service takes more than testing.

Reliability engineering is about influencing the team to make better decisions focused on achieving the reliability goals in balance with all the other constraints and expectations. Testing is one method to create information, yet it is not the most useful or effective.

Let’s talk about what is and isn’t reliability engineering and the importance of focusing on influencing key decisions and creating value.
