Plan, implement, control, and maintain the technical and engineering aspects of the ventilation system in underground mine areas by in-depth analysis and concepts, to support the operations of the underground mine, and mentor counterparts to enhance and boost the transfer of technology, skills and knowledge in these tasks and duties.
Additional Responsibilities: 1. Observe the implementation of safety and environmental standards and procedures within work area to minimize accident and damages to equipment.
2. Develop, coach, and motivate counterparts through on-the-job training (such as Pressure Quality Surveys) and other forms of training to enhance skill, knowledge, and capability of the counterparts.
3. Provide engineering initiatives and applications for underground fans, ventilation controls (doors and regulators). This includes costs calculation, spare parts management, design, installation, maintenance, as well as QC/QA, in collaboration with leadership, other departments, vendors, electricians and mechanics, to support the operations of ventilation system in the Underground Department.
4. Provide engineering initiatives and applications as chair and co-chair of dust quality committee, including Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM) and dust reduction strategies. The efforts consist of design, planning, procurement, collaboration with other departments and field execution. This also includes QC/QA.
