Role & responsibilities

* Ensure health and stability of diamond wire plating baths and associated PSM operations during the shift.

* Monitor bath parameters such as Ni, additives, pH, temperature, and conductivity within defined control limits.

* Plan and execute chemical make-up, additions, transfers, and media rotations as per operating procedures.

* Operate filtration and carbon treatment skids and ensure timely filter changes and press cycles.

* Coordinate with Lab teams for bath sampling, analysis, and implementation of approved corrections.

* Maintain accurate documentation of bath corrections and chemical usage in LIMS.

* Maintain Ni and additive mass balance across plating, PSM, and NR operations and identify unexplained losses.

* Track consumption of Ni, chemicals, and media against plan and support cost and consumption optimization.

* Coordinate with Bay Operations, QA, NR, and WWT/ETP teams for smooth and safe operations.

* Ensure proper segregation and treatment of effluents in coordination with WWT/ETP teams.

* Enforce safe work practices, PPE, ventilation, chemical handling SOPs, and PTW/LOTO requirements.

* Maintain proper chemical storage, labelling, and segregation as per safety and statutory requirements.

* Support investigations related to quality or yield issues and implement corrective and preventive actions.

* Support trials for current chemistries, additives, and operating windows in coordination with relevant teams.





* Coach team members and contractor staff on safe chemical handling, sampling, and checklist discipline.

Preferred candidate profile

* B.Tech / B.E. in Chemical or Electrochemical Engineering preferred; allied disciplines such as Metallurgical or Materials Engineering may also be considered.

* 3-6 years of experience in chemical operations, electroplating baths, PSM/WWT, or chemical plants with continuous make-up and dosing systems.

* Experience in chemical preparation, filtration, carbon treatment, and dosing skids, preferably in electroplating or metal finishing.

* Exposure to bath analysis, titration methods, lab coordination, and mass-balance calculations.

* Strong understanding of electrochemistry, solution chemistry, stoichiometry, and safe chemical handling.

* Experience in Ni, Cu, Sn, or Zn electroplating / metal finishing lines will be preferred.

* Experience in chemical operations within PV/cell/module manufacturing plants will be an added advantage.

* Working knowledge of LIMS, P&IDs;, interlocks, and SCADA/PLC systems for chemical dosing and transfer operations.

* Ability to interpret P&IDs; and understand pump, valve, and filtration systems.

* Basic understanding of PLC/SCADA indications and process monitoring.

* Robust documentation, data analysis, mass-balance, and compliance skills.

* Good communication and coordination skills to work with Operations, QA, NR, WWT, and HSEF teams.

* Proficiency in MS Office, particularly Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.
