• Drive risk mitigation through hazard identification, near-miss reporting, and timely closure of corrective actions.

SOP Development & Documentation

• Develop, review, and maintain SOPs, work instructions, and maintenance checklists for mechanical and utility systems.
• Ensure all SOPs reflect best practices, regulatory compliance, and lessons learned from RCAs and incidents.
• Provide technical training and guidance to technicians to ensure effective SOP execution.

Team Supervision & Task Management

• Supervise and coordinate the daily activities of mechanical technicians and in-house contractors to ensure timely and safe execution of maintenance tasks.
• Assign and monitor jobs using CMMS and job sheets, ensuring proper resource allocation and schedule adherence.
• Mentor technicians on troubleshooting, safety, and best maintenance practices.
• Monitor contractor performance and enforce compliance with safety standards.
• Lead toolbox meetings and manage manpower planning, particularly during shutdowns and emergency works.

General Responsibilities

• Participate in shutdown planning and execution, ensuring timely and quality completion of all mechanical works.
• Lead or support small- to medium-scale capital projects, including scope development, budgeting, vendor management, installation, and commissioning.
• Collaborate with operations, E&I engineers, and vendors to align maintenance strategies with production requirements.
• Contribute to HSE initiatives, including audits, incident investigations, and LOTOTO programs.

Job Requirements

• Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• Minimum 5 years' maintenance experience in chemical, pharmaceutical, or process manufacturing environments.
• Proven expertise in handling rotating/static equipment, piping systems, and mechanical utilities.
• Hands-on experience with CMMS (e.g., SAP, MVP) and maintenance planning.
• Strong background in equipment and instrument reliability studies, preventive maintenance programs, and long-term improvement initiatives.
• Knowledge of statutory regulations, including SS651, WSH Act, and MOM inspection protocols.
• Familiarity with predictive maintenance techniques and reliability engineering principles.
• Demonstrated ability in SOP development, technical documentation, and process compliance.
• Strong working knowledge of ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, SS651, cGMP, clean design, and microbial control practices.
• HSE and Quality-minded attitude with proven commitment to compliance and safety.
