You will be responsible for handling day-to-day electrical troubleshooting, executing preventive maintenance plans, performing permanent root cause fixes, and maintaining strict safety standards. Key Responsibilities
- Breakdown & Incident Management: Respond to daily breakdown calls promptly. Execute systematic Root Cause Analysis (RCA) to implement permanent countermeasures that eliminate repeat failures.

- Equipment Reliability Metrics: Monitor and optimize key operational KPIs including Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), Mean Time To Repair (MTTR), and Overall Equipment Availability.
- Safety & Compliance: Enforce strict Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedures, maintain proper Earthing systems, and ensure high-standard Safety Integrity Levels (SIL) using safety interlocks and sensors.
- Priority Management: Assess and prioritize simultaneous equipment breakdowns based on safety risks, production impact, and operational criticality.
- PPE & EHS Standards: Ensure total adherence to electrical PPE requirements (arc flash gear, insulated gloves/boots) and standard industrial safety guidelines.
