Job Title: Mechanical Plant Technician

Advert Code: MPT-004 | Maintenance – Mechanical
Location: V.I, Lagos

Position Purpose / Job Brief

• The Mechanical Plant Technician is accountable for delivering high-quality preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance on all reciprocating gas engines and associated mechanical balance-of-plant (BoP) systems.
• The role focuses on maximizing engine reliability, extending component service life, and ensuring all mechanical systems operate within OEM-specified parameters throughout their service intervals.

Key Responsibilities & Accountabilities

• Plan and execute preventive maintenance (PM) activities on reciprocating engines, turbochargers, fuel injection systems, cooling circuits, lube oil systems, and compressed air systems per OEM-approved schedules and CMMS work orders.
• Diagnose and repair mechanical failures across engines and rotating equipment (pumps, fans, compressors, heat exchangers) using structured fault-finding methodologies.
• Perform precision mechanical work including engine timing verification and adjustment, cylinder head removal/overhaul, piston and liner inspection/replacement, turbocharger overhaul, and bearing replacement.
• Conduct and document condition monitoring activities: vibration analysis checks, borescope inspections, lube oil sample collection for laboratory analysis, and performance trend evaluation.
• Maintain and service all lubrication, cooling, and fuel supply systems, ensuring correct fluid specifications, pressures, flows, and temperatures are consistently achieved.
• Complete accurate and timely CMMS work orders, maintenance reports, equipment history records, and inspection reports following all maintenance activities.
• Support major planned outage and overhaul events (12k / 24k / 48k hour intervals), coordinating precision work sequences, tool management, and adherence to outage schedules.
• Participate in root cause analysis (RCA) investigations for mechanical failures, and implement corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) to eliminate repeat failures.
• Enforce full compliance with PTW, LOTO, manual handling, and all plant HSE requirements during mechanical work.
• Provide technical guidance and on-the-job training to junior technicians and helpers.

Academic & Professional Qualifications

• Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related discipline.
• Minimum of five (5) years of hands-on maintenance experience on heavy-duty reciprocating engines in HFO, diesel, or gas power generation.
• Demonstrable competency in engine timing, turbocharger overhauls, precision measurement (bore gauges, dial indicators, feeler gauges, torque wrenches), and borescope inspection.
• Working knowledge of tribology, lubrication system management, and oil analysis interpretation.
• Proficiency in CMMS platforms (SAP PM, Maximo, or equivalent) for work order management and equipment history maintenance.
• OEM-accredited training certificates for relevant engine platforms (e.g., MAN, Wärtsilä, Caterpillar, Jenbacher) are a significant advantage.
• Certified in HSE requirements: PTW, LOTO, manual handling, and working at height.

Core Competency Profile:

• Mechanical Aptitude & Dexterity: Precise manual skills for high-tolerance mechanical work on complex engine assemblies.
• Structured Fault Diagnosis: Systematic, evidence-based approach to identifying root cause of mechanical failures.
• Documentation & Technical Writing: Clear, accurate, and complete maintenance records; ability to write quality RCA reports.
• HSE Discipline:Non-negotiable adherence to PTW, LOTO, and manual handling standards during all tasks.
• Time Management:Effective self-Organisation to execute multiple work orders on schedule without compromising quality.
• Continuous Learning: Commitment to staying current with OEM technical bulletins, service letters, and new techniques.
