Provide technical assistance for complex electrical and instrumentation issues, ensuring safe, efficient, and sustainable solutions.
Ensure all safety requirements are met and that I&E technicians have the materials, tools, and equipment needed to work effectively and safely.
Apply sound engineering judgment to intrinsic safety and explosion-proof classifications, electrical specifications, and equipment selection.
Troubleshoot motor systems, direct drive systems, and VFD applications, including specification and selection of replacement components.
Support troubleshooting, installation, and repair of valves, actuators, field instruments, and related process control devices.
Collaborate with reliability and maintenance partners to ensure calibration compliance and reliable performance of field instrumentation.
Maintain current and accurate P&IDs, wiring diagrams, electrical drawings, and instrument loop documentation.
Ensure compliance with NFPA 70E, NEC, local regulations, and site procedures to prevent accidents and maintain safe electrical work practices.
Collaborate on audits, safety observations, 5S initiatives, needs assessments, and routine management activities to identify improvement opportunities and solve problems.
Supervise, train, mentor, and direct I&E technicians while promoting quality, accountability, and safe work execution.
Partner with operations, maintenance, engineering, management, and external vendors to resolve issues, support system improvements, and coordinate equipment or service needs.
Track direct report hours, absences, vacations, and support performance review activities as needed.
