Senior Mechanical Engineer

• Lead the planning, scheduling and field execution of major plant turnarounds, planned shutdowns, and emergency outages for critical machinery to ensure safely completed works within tight schedules and budgets.

• Oversee, troubleshoot, and manage the advanced maintenance of critical compressor technologies, including Centrifugal, Screw, and Reciprocating compressors.

• Ensure the integrity and proper operation of advanced sealing technologies, specifically managing dry gas seals for compressors, specialized API mechanical seals, and high-capacity production extruders.

• Supervise the reliability, inspection, and maintenance of plant utility systems, specifically water tube boilers, cooling towers, and heat exchangers.

• Optimize materials control by establishing critical spare parts lists, auditing warehouse stock levels, evaluating technical bids for replacement components, and ensuring zero downtime due to part unavailability.

• Track, analyze, and report maintenance KPIs to drive continuous improvement.

• Guarantee that all maintenance activities, alignments, and modifications strictly adhere to international engineering codes, specifically API and ASME standards

Requirements
