When you've done your testing have you been executing the four jobs simultaneously? (i.e. not start one, then the other, then the other, etc.)
Reason I ask is, is it possible that the application in question has some kind of race condition when starting which is getting tripped every now and then as two or more jobs just happen to collide at a certain point?
