- Coordinate and support preventive/corrective maintenance, outages, and overhauls with internal engineering teams and OEM vendors.
- Maintain accurate logs, shift reports, and compliance documentation aligned to EPA, OSHA, NERC, and internal EHS requirements.
- Participate in incident response and contribute technical input to corrective actions and continuous improvement.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Experience in industrial turbine operations (utility, IPP, microgrid, industrial plant, or mission-critical environments).
- Degree in Mechanical/Electrical/Power Engineering or equivalent technical training/certifications with demonstrated field competence.
- Strong working knowledge of turbine controls, plant automation, and condition-based maintenance practices.
- Demonstrated ownership of EHS standards and compliance execution.
Skills and Competencies
- Strong situational awareness and structured troubleshooting in high-risk operating environments.
- Clear communication for shift turnover, incident reporting, and vendor coordination.
- Discipline in procedure adherence and documentation accuracy.

- Global impact at scale: Contribute directly to how mission-critical OCI data centers operate across regions and continents, influencing infrastructure reliability, security, sustainability, and long-term capacity growth.
- Technically rigorous environment: Work alongside experienced engineers, automation specialists, and compliance teams in a rapidly scaling hyperscale cloud infrastructure, where disciplined execution and technical depth matter.
- Culture built on operational excellence: Join an organization that values safety, process rigor, clear accountability, and continuous improvement as foundational to protecting uptime and customer trust.
