What You'll Do

Key Responsibilities: 2.1 Project Planning & Execution (Utilities): • Lead utility-related capital projects (greenfield, brownfield, capacity expansions). • Develop project charters, timelines, budgets, and resource plans. • Prepare and review BOQs, technical specifications, tender documents, and contractor scopes. • Coordinate with consultants, architects, process teams, and site execution teams. • Ensure timely completion of projects with adherence to quality, safety, and cost benchmarks. • Review and approve GFC (Good for Construction) drawings and monitor execution progress using tools like MS Project or Primavera. 2.2 Utility System Design & Engineering: • Prepare Basis of Design and P&IDs for: ◦ Clean Utilities: PW, WFI, PSG, Nitrogen, Clean Compressed Air. ◦ Black Utilities: Boilers, chillers, hot/chilled water, compressed air, RO/Soft water systems. ◦ DG Systems: Capacity planning, synchronization, AMF/ATS panels, fuel tank sizing. • Ensure integration of utility systems with process, HVAC, cleanroom, and automation systems. 2.3 Commissioning, Qualification & Validation: • Oversee equipment installation, loop testing, hydro testing, and performance qualification. • Approve and ensure execution of validation protocols (DQ, IQ, OQ, PQ). • Manage third-party vendors for FAT/SAT and coordinate documentation readiness for audits. 2.4 Operational Reliability & Maintenance: • Ensure uninterrupted utility supply across plants. • Monitor performance of clean utility loops (conductivity, TOC, endotoxins, dew point, etc.). • Manage preventive/predictive maintenance of DG sets, boilers, chillers, air compressors. • Track KPIs like steam-fuel ratio, specific energy consumption, DG fuel usage, and air leakage losses. 2.5 Compliance, EHS & Regulatory: • Ensure clean utility systems meet pharma regulatory norms – WHO, USFDA, EU GMP, Schedule M. • Maintain boiler licenses, DG certifications, pressure vessel compliance, and pollution control norms. • Conduct utility risk assessments (HAZOP, FMEA) and implement safety protocols. 2.6 Energy Management & Optimization: • Identify and implement energy-saving initiatives such as: ◦ Heat recovery from boilers and compressors. ◦ DG load optimization and synchronization strategies. ◦ VFD retrofits on utility pumps and blowers. ◦ Leak detection and loss control in compressed air and N₂ systems. • Support energy audits and monitor utility-specific energy KPIs (e.g., kWh/TR, kg steam/kg product). 2.7 Team Leadership & Vendor Coordination: • Lead a team of utility engineers, supervisors, and operators. • Guide contractors and OEMs for smooth project execution and AMC compliance. • Conduct training on clean utility SOPs, DG handling, safety, and energy efficiency. 2.8 Reporting & Documentation: • Maintain utility master records: ◦ Equipment history sheets, qualification records, calibration logs. ◦ Clean utility quality logs (TOC, conductivity, micro testing). ◦ DG load logs, diesel consumption records, and maintenance schedules. • Submit periodic reports on project status, utility performance, deviation handling, and energy trends.

Soft Skills Required

Skills & Competencies: • Expert in utility design, commissioning, validation, and GMP documentation. • Proficient in AutoCAD, MS Project/Primavera, SCADA, BMS, and utility monitoring systems. • Strong project management, leadership, budgeting, and analytical skills. • Excellent coordination and communication with cross-functional teams and external vendors. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): • Timely and successful delivery of utility projects • Clean & black utility uptime > 99% • No critical audit observation in utility domain • Reduction in energy and diesel consumption • Timely qualification and calibration adherence • Safety and statutory compliance closure on time
