ROTATING EQUIP INSPECTOR

JOB DESCRIPTION

The Rotating Equipment Inspector works in conjunction with the Rotating Equipment Area Engineer to provide Rotating Equipment assurance to the Area Production Team.

The Inspector is responsible for first point of contact for troubleshooting of rotating equipment issues from maintenance and operations, including non-business hours.

The Rotating Equipment Inspector primarily reports to the Rotating Equipment Team Lead and dotted-line reports to the Area Production Unit Manager.

Generally, the Rotating Equipment Inspector manages short-to-medium term rotating equipment topics in the production team such as Intelatrac responses, operator instructions, maintenance instructions, Maintenance Execution (ME) Notification responses, MTBR metrics, 5-Why Failure Cause Analysis, MOC PSSR field assurance, execution of proactive technical monitoring, development of repair scopes, and general day-to-day operating business.

The Inspector escalates concerns to the corresponding Area Engineer. It is of utmost importance that the Engineer and Inspector maintain fluid communication.

The Inspector may participate in design review for the discipline MOCs but is generally not a Technical Authority.

The Inspector builds ITP (Inspection Test Plan) for equipment repairs.

The Rotating Equipment Inspector may work with the Engineer for day-to-day activities which pertain to vital or essential equipment.

The Rotating Equipment Inspector should achieve general knowledge of production processes and how the machinery interfaces with the processes.
