What You'll Do...
Agratas is looking for a high calibre automation maintenance engineer who comes from a Chemical background to support the installation & commissioning of equipment within our E-zone (electrode). Working alongside internal resources, equipment vendors and turnkey partners to ensure the equipment is safe, operable & maintainable and is installed to the correct local standards.
During the initial phase of the project, you will be focussing on
- Reviewing and evaluating solutions from the project teams.
- Providing technical and serviceability input during the RFQ process to ensure the right solutions are chosen based upon safety, cost and capability.
- Attend design reviews, FAT or supplier meetings, travel to visit third-party suppliers and OEMs.
The role will later transition to hands-on, where you will be ensuring the installation meets our standards and requirements. You will drive and participate in the development of maintenance processes, determining tools and spare parts needed along with necessary service agreements ensuring that the equipment meets availability targets in the 90+% range.
This is a hybrid role while the site is being built but from commissioning phase, you will be required to be on-site.
