  • Diagnose mechanical faults, analyze equipment failures, and support root cause analysis to recommend effective corrective and preventive actions.
  • Provide technical support during pre-commissioning, start-up, commissioning, and post-maintenance trials of new or overhauled equipment.
  • Maintain accurate and timely documentation of maintenance activities, repair findings, spare parts consumption, and equipment performance as per SOPs.
  • Ensure strict adherence to safety procedures, including permit-to-work systems and Lockout/Tagout/Tryout (LOTOTO), and applicable plant and industry standards.

  • Proficiency in using precision measuring instruments including micrometers, calipers, bore gauges, and specialized mechanical tools.
  • Sound understanding of machinery tolerances, fits, clearances, alignment, and field balancing principles.
  • Proven ability to diagnose mechanical faults, analyze equipment failures, and support root cause analysis with practical corrective actions.
  • Strong mechanical aptitude with high attention to detail and problem-solving capability.
  • Ability to work effectively in industrial environments, including confined spaces, elevated areas, varying temperatures, noise, and rotating machinery zones.
  • Clear communication skills and ability to guide junior technicians through on-the-job support and knowledge sharing.
  • Strong safety orientation with adherence to permit-to-work systems, LOTOTO procedures, and plant safety standards.
  • Certifications in alignment, rigging, or industrial safety will be an added advantage.
