About the Role

Own machine reliability and uptime on the shopfloor. Plan and execute PM/CBM/TBM, drive breakdown reduction, manage spares (minmax), ensure EHS compliance, and lead continuous improvement (Kaizen/TPM) to improve availability, quality, and cost.

Key Responsibilities

• Plan and schedule

  PM, CBM, TBM

  ; ensure 100% PM compliance.
• Achieve

  uptime/availability targets

  ; track and improve

  MTTR/MTBF

  and support OEE improvement.
• Lead

  breakdown analysis

  (RCA/5-Why/Fishbone/8D); implement CAPA and verify effectiveness.
• Execute

  setup time reduction (SMED)

  and Kaizen for throughput/quality.
• Maintain machines in

  basic condition

  (cleaning, lubrication, tightening, alignment, calibration).

• Spares/MRO management:

  minmax planning, PR creation, SAP PM/MM transactions,

  RGP

  handling; vendor follow-ups.
• Ensure

  safe work practices

  (LOTO, work permits, JSA, ISO 45001/14001 requirements) for technicians and operators.
