<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Key Responsibilities:</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Implementation of Maintenance System and Strategies: </span></strong><span data-contrast="auto">Implementation of a Computerized Maintenance Management System (Maximo). This includes creating a detailed, digitized inventory of all facility equipment (conveyors, paint booths, HVAC, robotics) with unique IDs and critical ratings. Develop and implement a comprehensive Preventive Maintenance schedule (daily, weekly, monthly, annually) based on OEM recommendations, environmental conditions, and production demands. Integrate sensors (vibration, temperature, etc.) in monitoring facilities equipment conditions to identify early signs of failure to ensure continuous and efficient plant operations through Predictive Maintenance Strategy. Establish a critical spare parts warehouse strategy, setting min/max levels to minimize downtime during unexpected failures. Document maintenance routines, checklists, and troubleshooting guides to standardize operations.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335559739":120}"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Daily Operations and Reliability: </span></strong><span data-contrast="auto">Diagnose root causes of equipment failures, leading corrective maintenance to restore production. Oversee the lifecycle of maintenance work—request, assignment, execution, and closure—ensuring all activities are logged in the CMMS. Oversee external vendors for specialized maintenance (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, fire systems) ensuring compliance with safety and quality standards. Analyze performance data to maximize equipment uptime, reliability, and speed. Manage departmental budgets, tracking maintenance costs and spare parts spenditures to optimize ROI.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335559739":120}"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Continuous Improvement and Safety: </span></strong><span data-contrast="auto">Perform post-mortem analysis on failures to prevent recurrence. Track Key Performance Indicators (MTBF—Mean Time Between Failures, MTTR—Mean Time To Repair, PM Compliance) to evaluate and adjust the maintenance program. Ensure full compliance with safety standards (e.g., Lockout/Tagout, OSHA/local regulations) and environmental regulations (waste disposal, emissions). Identify and implement improvements to assembly line equipment using Lean tools to increase efficiency. Train maintenance technicians on new equipment and best practices.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335559739":120}"> </span></p>
