- Maintain accurate and thorough records of maintenance history, repairs, inspections, and modifications.
- Support procurement and inventory management of instrumentation-related materials.
- Provide mentorship, guidance, and training to maintenance personnel on best practices.
- Manage contracts and budgets associated with the measurement program, including evaluating contractor performance.
- Participate in continuous improvement activities and long-term strategic planning.
- Contribute to the development and enhancement of a relatively new measurement program; experience establishing programs from the ground up is highly preferred.
- Bachelor’s degree, associate degree, relevant technical discipline, or equivalent experience preferred.
- Minimum 12–15 years of relevant experience in instrumentation, controls, or measurement.
- Strong background as both a technician and planner in instrumentation.
- Extensive measurement experience (e.g., analyzers, flow meters).
- Proven experience managing contracts, budgets, and contractor performance metrics.
- Advanced knowledge of control systems architecture and field instrumentation.
- Strong interpersonal skills to effectively collaborate with manufacturing, engineering, and other departments.
- Oil & gas industry background required; LNG/cryogenic experience is a plus.
- Working knowledge of PLC and DCS systems is beneficial, though the primary focus is on measurement systems.
