Design & Specification: Oversee the design and installation of process piping, including chilled water systems, compressed air, hydraulic oil lines, and cooling water circuits essential.
Material Inspection: Select appropriate materials (e.g., carbon steel, stainless steel, PVC/UPVC) based on pressure, temperature, and chemical compatibility. Inspect incoming materials (cross-check delivery notes with orders), verify certification labels. Perform or verify flow rate, pressure drop, and pump head calculations to ensure system efficiency.
Electrical Integration (Secondary Focus): Manage the electrical hook-ups for molding machines, ensuring power distribution units (PDU) and busway systems meet the specific load requirements of the machinery.
Collaboration: Work closely with the Electrical team to synchronize piping layouts with cable trays and electrical trunking to avoid spatial conflicts.
Project Management & Execution: Evaluate technical bids from subcontractors and suppliers for piping and electrical components.
Quality & Safety: Ensure all installations comply with Malaysian standards and international safety codes. Complete daily Site Diaries, recording weather, personnel, equipment, issues, and resolutions. Organize on-site photos/videos as evidence for quality and safety compliance.
Lead site inspections and pressure testing for piping systems and assist in electrical testing/commissioning (T&C).
Participate in internal and external meetings to propose efficiency improvements. Accompany government agencies (e.g., CIDB, JKR) during site visits and provide required documents.
Safety & Compliance Control: Verify workers hold valid CIDB Green Cards. Report high-risk activities (e.g., deep excavation) to the Safety Officer for documentation. Manage construction waste sorting (per Environmental Quality Act 1974), control dust and noise pollution.
Qualifications
Minimum Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
Experience: 3+ years of hands-on local site experience, familiar with main contractor-subcontractor workflows.
Strong knowledge of piping and electric systems, as well as relevant local regulations and industry standards.
Proven ability to manage multiple stakeholders and lead teams in a fast-paced environment.
