SMT Equipment Maintenance

- Ensure high uptime and efficiency of SMT lines (Printer, SPI, Pick &
- Place, Reflow Oven, AOI, Wave Soldering)

- Develop and implement preventive & predictive maintenance plans.

- Drive breakdown analysis (RCA) and implement corrective actions.

- Maintain critical spares inventory and reduce MTTR (Mean Time to Repair).

- Coordinate with OEMs/vendors for upgrades, troubleshooting, and AMCs.

Testing Equipment Maintenance &

- Reliability

- Lead maintenance of: EV testing machines (functional, endurance, validation testing setups)

- ICT (In-Circuit Testing) machines (Selective soldering machines, Wave soldering machines, Robotic automation systems, Press-fit machines).

- Flushing equipment (leak testing, cleaning, fluid circulation systems)

- Drive root cause analysis (RCA) and implement corrective & preventive actions (CAPA).

Budgeting &

- Cost Control

- Prepare and manage maintenance & utility budgets.

- Optimize maintenance costs without impacting performance.

- Control energy and consumable costs.

Clean Room &

- Environmental Control

- Maintain clean room standards (for PCB and electronics assembly areas).

- Ensure control of ESD, temperature, humidity, and particulate levels.

- Ensure compliance with industry standards for electronics manufacturing.

Energy Management &

- Cost Optimization

- Drive energy-saving initiatives and cost reduction projects.

- Monitor KPIs like specific energy consumption.





- Implement automation and digital monitoring systems for utilities.

Project Management

- Lead Maintenance & utility-related capex projects (installation, expansion, upgrades).

- Commission current equipment and ensure smooth integration with production.

- Vendor selection, technical evaluation, and contract management

Compliance &

- Safety

- Ensure compliance with statutory regulations (electrical safety, pollution control, boiler regulations, etc.).

- Drive safety initiatives across utility operations.

- Ensure adherence to ISO standards (ISO 14001, ISO 45001, etc.).

TPM &

- Equipment Reliability

- Implement TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) practices

- Drive OEE improvement initiatives for SMT lines

- Improve MTBF and MTTR.

- Ensure robust planned and autonomous maintenance culture.

Team Leadership &

- Capability Building

- Lead and develop maintenance & utility team.

- Build a problem-solving, data-driven, and ownership-based culture.

- Drive training on automotive quality mindset, discipline, and standardization.

Digitalization

- Implement Industry 4.0 practices for utility monitoring

- Use data analytics for predictive maintenance and efficiency improvement.
