Description

The purpose of this role is to ensure unit and station availability in line with the Annual Operating Plan, maintain 100% statutory compliance, adopt safe and trouble‑free technology, and transform the maintenance function from a cost center into a profit center.

Key responsibilities cover maintenance planning and scheduling for turbines, auxiliaries, air compressors and dryers, execution of emergency shutdowns, day‑to‑day fault handling, overseeing major overhauls, testing activities, and contributing to the departmental budget and 5S initiatives.

Spare parts management involves identifying critical spares, developing reverse‑engineered solutions, establishing Indian and alternative vendors, and maintaining inventory and procurement within budget constraints to prevent stock‑outs.

Safety duties include implementing safety practices in daily work, training agency personnel for work at height and confined spaces, identifying and eliminating hazards, complying with EHS audits, and conducting regular toolbox talks to improve behavioral safety.

Team development focuses on providing expert training, refresher courses, fostering a proactive and motivated culture, and enhancing technical skills through daily discussions and case studies, while maintaining strong internal and vendor relationships and mentoring graduate engineers.
