The Role 

The Power Mechanical Technician plays a key role in ensuring reliable, safe, and cost efficient power supply within the terminal. This person supports the Power Unit Supervisor by carrying out maintenance, troubleshooting, and improvement activities on generators, mechanical systems, and related power equipment. The role helps keep terminal operations running smoothly by ensuring 24/7 availability of essential power infrastructure. 

This position involves hands-on technical work, problem-solving, teamwork, and the ability to respond quickly and safely to operational needs. The technician works closely with electricians, fellow mechanics, maintenance planners, and other internal stakeholders to keep power systems in optimal condition. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Carry out mechanical maintenance, servicing, and repairs on generators and other power system components 


• Support electricians during equipment breakdowns to shorten downtime and maintain operational continuity 


• Monitor equipment reliability and escalate concerns to the Power Unit Supervisor when needed 


• Execute daily tasks, work instructions, and decisions provided by the Supervisor 


• Participate in shift, standby, and emergency response duties to ensure round the clock power availability 


• Identify required spare parts, tools, and materials for both preventive and corrective maintenance 


• Ensure all work complies with safety procedures, equipment manuals, and environmental standards
