Senior Plant Maintenance Engineer

Core Engineering & Supervisory Responsibilities

A. Preventive & Predictive Maintenance (PPM) Architecture

Formulate schedule and execute comprehensive daily weekly monthly and quarterly preventive maintenance protocols across all active plant assets and machinery.
Establish predictive conditioning monitoring practices leveraging specialized field techniquessuch as vibration analysis oil spectrometry structural thermal imaging and acoustic emission trackingto detect early component degradation.
Author and update centralized digital asset history ledgers meticulously tracking breakdown histories component running hours and mean-time-between-failures (MTBF) to forecast overhauls accurately.

B. Emergency Breakdown & Troubleshooting Command
Lead the sites rapid-response maintenance team executing swift electrical mechanical or hydraulic fault isolation during unexpected equipment failures.
Diagnose and resolve complex automation glitches including Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) loop errors industrial network sensor faults and pneumatic circuit blocks.
Drive formal Root-Cause Analysis (RCA) investigations following any major or repetitive machine failure modifying standard operational procedures and executing permanent mechanical/electrical upgrades to guarantee zero recurrence.

C. Mechanical Electrical & Hydraulic System Overhauls
Plan and execute major internal overhauls on heavy concrete mixing equipment (twin-shaft paddles mixing arms wear-resistant liner plates and hydraulic discharge doors).
Supervise the meticulous calibration and structural certification of high-pressure hydraulic prestressing jacks power packs pressure relief valves and gantry crane hoist electromagnetic braking assemblies.
Govern all plant electrical installations including the programming and diagnostics of Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) computerized control desks star-delta starter relays and high-accuracy weighing load cells.

D. Critical Spares Store & Inventory Engineering
Structure and manage the engineering spare parts inventory defining mathematically sound minimum maximum and safety reorder thresholds for critical long-lead items.
Draft precise technical specifications for engineering procurements and coordinate directly with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and local vendors to secure high-quality spares.
Standardize inventory part numbers across matching machinery components to limit locked-up capital while guaranteeing a 100% availability rating on critical breakdown parts.

E. Safety Leadership LOTO Compliance & Statutory Regulations
Enforce an absolute zero-compromise Lock-Out Tag-Out (LOTO) safety protocol across all industrial control panels batching bins and gantry rail tracks during internal maintenance tasks.
Actively lead brief daily maintenance safety tool-box talks ensuring all technicians are fully briefed on electrical arc-flash mitigation confined-space entries and working-at-height safety rules.
Manage statutory calibration schedules and legal safety inspections for all pressure vessels curing steam boilers weight-bridges and overhead hoisting hooks ensuring total regulatory compliance under local laws.

Education: Bachelors Degree or Higher Graduate Diploma in Mechanical Engineering Electrical Engineering or Mechatronics/Automation Engineering from a recognized university.
Experience: 510 years of progressive career longevity focused on plant engineering asset reliability or industrial field maintenance.
Candidates must possess substantial direct experience inside high-output precast yards automated concrete product factories or heavy mining/infrastructure mechanical plants.

Technical & Engineering Mastery:
