Summary

Responsibilities

Mechanical Engineering Scope 

• Supervise the installation of mechanical systems such as e-house re-assembly HVAC units, cable trays, enclosures, fire-rated penetrations, and earthing infrastructure. 

• Ensure alignment between mechanical and electrical interface points to avoid installation clashes or rework. 

• Validate drawings, redlines, and as-built documentation related to mechanical layouts. 

• Oversee subcontractor performance in mechanical scope areas and ensure compliance with scope and schedule. 

• Coordinate with electrical and civil disciplines to ensure integrated system functionality at substations. 

Quality Control Scope 

• Develop and implement the Project Quality Plan and Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs) for electrical and mechanical installations. 

• Conduct site inspections, material verification, and test witnessing in line with contractual and Schneider Electric quality requirements. 

• Maintain NCR (Non-Conformance Report) and CAPA (Corrective & Preventive Action) logs and drive resolution. 

• Coordinate third-party and client inspections and handover documentation. 

• Ensure all work complies with relevant standards (ISO 9001, IEC, IEEE, project- specific codes). 

• Review and verify all quality dossiers for commissioning and handover stages. 

• Provide daily and weekly QC reports to site management and client representatives. 

Education and Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or a related engineering discipline. 

Preferred Additional Qualifications 

• International experience or projects in Africa/remote regions. 

• Certification in QA/QC (e.g., ISO 9001 Lead Auditor, API Inspector) is a plus.
