Maintenance Engineer

1. 1. Operational Necessity in Tinting DepartmentThe Tinting process is a critical part of our production line, involving specialized equipment that requires consistent monitoring, preventive maintenance, and rapid troubleshooting to avoid downtime. Currently, our maintenance team is stretched thin across multiple departments, and the Tinting area has become increasingly vulnerable to delays due to limited engineering support.Adding a dedicated Maintenance Engineer will:
2. 2. Strategic TPM ImplementationAs part of our organizational goal to implement TPM, we require focused engineering support to drive this transformation. TPM is not just a maintenance strategy—it is a company-wide initiative that demands cross-functional collaboration, data-driven analysis, and structured execution.A new engineer will play a key role in:

• Ensure faster response times to equipment issues.
• Reduce unplanned downtime and improve overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
• Support continuous improvement initiatives specific to Tinting operations.
• Facilitating TPM pillars such as Autonomous Maintenance, Planned Maintenance, and Early Equipment Management.
• Coordinating with production teams to train operators and standardize maintenance routines.
• Collecting and analyzing machine data to identify chronic losses and improvement opportunities.Without sufficient manpower, the TPM rollout risks being delayed or inconsistently applied, which could compromise its long-term benefits.
• 3. Cost Efficiency and Risk Mitigation
• While adding a headcount may seem like an immediate cost increase, it is a strategic investment that will yield measurable returns:
• Reduced maintenance costs through proactive interventions.
• Lower spare parts consumption due to better equipment care.
• Minimized production losses from breakdowns and quality defects.
• Improved safety and compliance, reducing risk of incidents and regulatory issues. 

Moreover, the cost of unplanned downtime and reactive maintenance often exceeds the salary of a skilled engineer. By investing in preventive capabilities now, we can avoid larger financial impacts in the future.

4. Support for Organizational Growth
As our production volume and complexity increase, so does the demand for technical support. This additional headcount will not only stabilize current operations but also prepare us for future expansion and innovation.

Maintenance Engineer Responsibilities
