Executive

WHAT YOU WILL DO

This role focuses on maximizing plant uptime, building reliability and driving operational efficiency of high complexity continuous manufacturing plant. The person will lead the preventive, predictive, and breakdown maintenance of automation systems, including PLCs, Servo drives, SCADA, HMIs and VFDs, Electro-pneumatics, and the implementation of Low-Cost Automation (LCA) solutions to optimize productivity.

Uptime & reliability of Plant automation System**:**

• Maintain, troubleshoot, and optimize PLC, HMI, SCADA, and other industrial automation systems installed across production and utility equipment.
• Build reliability through diagnosis, RCA & execute adequate corrective & preventive actions on repeated breakdowns.
• Maintain and update PLC programs, HMI screens, control logic, and system configurations as per approved procedures.
• Supporting shift maintenance team during critical breakdowns.

Preventive & Predictive Maintenance:

• Develop and execute preventive maintenance plans for automation systems and control panels.
• Ensure availability of critical automation spares and maintain proper inventory of PLC modules, sensors, drives, and other components.
• Maintain automation maintenance records, breakdown reports, and equipment history.

Plant Automation:

• Programming & troubleshooting: Perform advanced fault-finding, modification, and optimization of PLC programs (e.g., Siemens TIA Portal, Rockwell Allen-Bradley, or Mitsubishi) and HMI/SCADA configurations.
• Motion Control Systems: Manage, parameterize, and troubleshoot high-performance Servo drives, motors, and Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs).
• Electrical & Instrumentation Troubleshooting: Read complex electrical drawings and schematics to safely trace, calibrate, and repair field instrumentation, sensors, control panels, actuators, switchgear, and safety circuits.
• Low-Cost Automation (LCA): Identify bottleneck areas across production lines and conceptualize, design, and deploy Low-Cost Automation strategies to reduce manual intervention, boost cycle times, and optimize energy efficiency.
• Projects: Support the installation, commissioning, testing, and validation of new machines.
• Technical Coordination: with OEMs, system integrators, and vendors for technical support, upgrades, and project execution.
• Support machine upgrades, line modifications, and integration of new equipment with existing control systems.
