NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a trained Field Technician (Mechanical, Electrical and instrumentation) with high level experience and knowledge in planning, testing, installation and maintenance of mechanical components, equipment and machinery, plants, instruments, controls—and I also support training of lower-level technicians.
At Kimeric Nigeria Limited (Seconded by Seplat Energy), I operate and surveil process power plant equipment, maintain daily/hours record of parameters data, and follow company protocols and safety regulations. I also maintain accurate documentation of surveillance checks, repairs and parts used, analyze equipment performance, and provide recommendations to my Team Lead and supervisor. Previously at PHED (Power Holding Company of Nigeria), I produced, installed, maintained and repaired electrical equipment (high and low tension transmission lines, switch gear box, transformers and gang switches), troubleshooting electrical malfunctions to minimize downtime; earlier, as an Assembly Supervisor at Cubani Technical Equipment Nigeria Limited, I implemented safety standards, developed preventive maintenance for factory equipment, and responded to process/safety emergencies while assembling, disassembling, testing and reporting on equipment.
