Preventive and scheduled maintenance Develop, implement, and track preventive maintenance (PM) programs for all heavy equipment (forklifts, telehandlers, generators, scissor lifts, light towers, electrical and mechanical tools/equipment, scaƯold, oƯices/containers, etc. etc.). Schedule routine inspections and service intervals based on manufacturer recommendations and usage data. Maintain spare parts inventories and reorder levels to minimize downtime. Diagnostics and troubleshootingPerform fault finding on mechanical, hydraulic, electrical, and electronic systems. Use diagnostic tools (multimeters, pressure/flow testing, EDM analyzers, onboard diagnostics) to identify root causes. Determine whether repairs can be done in-house or require OEM specialists. Repairs and overhaulsCarry out or supervise mechanical repairs, component replacements, hydraulic system work, brake and steering maintenance, and electrical system servicing. Plan and execute major overhauls, including engine, transmission, hydraulic pumps, undercarriage, and boom/counterweight components.Test and verify repairs, road-test equipment, and ensure proper function before return to service.Lubrication and wear managementImplement lubrication schedules for all moving parts and hydraulic fittings. Monitor wear parts (filters, seals, pins, bushings) and manage replacement plans to prevent unexpected failures.Documentation and data managementMaintain accurate maintenance logs, service records, and work orders.Track equipment hours, downtime, parts usage, and service history for lifecycle analysis. Generate reports on maintenance performance, MTBF/MTTR metrics, downtime maintenance cost per hour and cost of ownership (provide insights to management). Update maintenance logs, service histories, downtime records, and parts usage in the maintenance management system.Reliability and optimizationAnalyze failure trends to identify chronic issues and implement corrective actionsRecommend design or process changes to improve reliability and uptime. Optimize maintenance intervals based on usage patterns, operating conditions, and manufacturer guidance.Safety and quality regulatory complianceEnsure all maintenance work complies with safety standards, manufacturer requirements, and local regulations. Enforce lockout/tagout procedures, safe lifting practices, and proper use of PPE. Verify that equipment is safe to operate after service, including functional checks and test runs. Maintain accurate, legible service records, warranty documentation, and audit[1]ready reports.Procurement and vendor coordinationSource parts, lubricants, and consumables; negotiate with suppliers for price and lead timesCoordinate with OEM service providers or third-party repair shops for complex diagnostics or warranty work. Manage warranty claims and documentation when applicable.Planning and coordination with operationsSchedule maintenance to minimize impact on production and project timelines. Communicate status of repairs and expected downtime to site managers and operators. Provide guidance on equipment utilization, de-rating, or temporary replacements during maintenance.Training and knowledge transferTrain operators and junior technicians on basic maintenance routines, proper operation, and safety practices. Keep the team updated on new techniques, tools, or OEM service bulletins.Field and shop maintenance experience with heavy equipment (cranes, excavators, loaders, bulldozers, concrete pumps, etc.). Familiarity with hydraulics, engines, transmissions, electrical systems, and diagnostics. Technical Skills: Proficient in using diagnostic tools, multimeters, pressure/flow tests, EDM analyzers. Strong understanding of hydraulic systems, diesel engines, transmissions, brakes, and steering. Basic PLC/electrical control knowledge is advantageous. Software:Experience with maintenance management systems (CMMS), ERP modules, and productivity apps; basic data analysis skills.Physical DemandsAbility to lift heavy components, work in varying weather conditions, and perform inspections and repairs in field and shop environments. Certification and Training: Safety training including Lockout/Tagout, Sling/Lift planning, Fall protection, and forklift awareness as applicable.CompetencyProblem-solving and analytical thinking. Strong attention to detail and thorough documentation. Effective communication with operators, supervisors, and vendors. Time management and prioritization under tight deadlines. Safety-first mindset and adherence to procedures.Teamwork and capability to train others. Performance Metrics:Equipment uptime % and MTTR.PM compliance rate and on-time completion.Mean time between failures (MTBF) for critical assets. Maintenance cost per hour and warranty recovery. Downtime due to maintenance and repeat failures. Safety incident rate related to maintenance activities. Work Environment:On-site at construction project locations and in the shop/maintenance yard.Potential for overtime, after-hours calls, night shifts, or weekend work during critical project phases. Exposure to loud environments, heavy machinery, and varying weather conditions. Education: Bachelor’s degree in mechanical, Electrical, or Mechatronics Engineering, or equivalent hands-on experience (e.g., 6 to 10 years in heavy equipment maintenance)Certifications: Relevant certifications (e.g., hydraulics, diesel engines, electrical, NDT) are a plus. OEM certifications favored.
