Key responsibilities

A) BMS Operations, Exploitation & Reliability (primary)

• Operate & “exploit” BMS for performance
  • Continuously optimize HVAC plant and building controls through setpoint tuning, schedules, PID/logic adjustments, demand control strategies, and alarm rationalization.
  • Drive energy and comfort performance using trend analytics, baselining, and seasonal strategy changes.
• Advanced troubleshooting & root-cause analysis
  • Lead diagnosis of recurring alarms, equipment trips, communication failures, and control loop instability.
  • Perform end-to-end fault isolation across field devices (sensors/actuators/VFDs), controllers/DDCs/PLCs, gateways, and supervisory servers.
  • Use trends, histories, packet/network checks, and point-to-point validation to determine true root cause (not symptom closure).
• System health, availability & lifecycle management
  • Ensure uptime and resilience of BMS servers, workstations, databases, historian/trending, backups/restore validation, and user access controls.
  • Manage preventive maintenance for BMS infrastructure (panels, power supplies, UPS, network switches where applicable, controller firmware, etc.).
  • Maintain cybersecurity hygiene in coordination with IT (segmentation, access rights, patch/firmware planning as permitted, password management, audit trails).
• Alarm management & operational governance
  • Build/maintain alarm philosophy: prioritization, thresholds, delays, suppression rules, escalation matrices, and on-call/response routines.
  • Improve operator effectiveness through dashboards, SOPs, runbooks, and shift handover quality.
• Vendor/OEM and SLA management
  • Lead BMS AMC/vendor performance (response time, fix quality, spares readiness, documentation completeness).
  • Validate OEM recommendations, ensure technical correctness, and prevent unnecessary replacements.
• Documentation & compliance readiness
  • Maintain accurate as-built drawings, point lists, network architecture, controller programs/versions, cause-effect matrices, and change logs.
  • Support audits and internal reviews through evidence-based records (backups, trend logs, incident RCA, maintenance logs).

B) Projects / Enhancements (secondary but essential)

• Deliver BMS upgrades and minor projects
  • Manage enhancements such as new floor/area integrations, sensor additions, control logic modifications, dashboard/reporting buildouts, alarm rationalization projects, and server/workstation refresh support.
  • Own scope, requirements, vendor coordination, site execution planning, and handover.
• Commissioning, testing & handover
  • Create and execute commissioning plans: point-to-point checks, functional testing, trend verification, and UAT with stakeholders.
  • Ensure clean handover package: updated as-builts, programs, backups, O&M, training, and SOPs.
• Support larger MEP/fit-out initiatives
  • Partner with project teams to ensure BMS design compliance, integration feasibility, and maintainability.
  • Review control drawings, IO schedules, network designs, and sequences of operation.

Key deliverables / KPIs (examples)

• Reduction in repeat alarms and nuisance alarms (alarm rationalization effectiveness)
• MTTR improvement for BMS-related incidents; quality of RCA closure
• BMS uptime/availability; backup/restore success rate
• Energy performance improvements attributable to controls optimization (where metering supports)
• On-time delivery of BMS enhancements/projects with compliant documentation handover
• Vendor SLA adherence and first-time-fix rate

Required qualifications & experience

• Experience: Typically 8–12+ years in BMS/IBMS operations, with multi-site exposure preferred; at least 3–5 years in a lead/manager role.
• Education:  BE/BTech in Electrical, Mechanical, Instrumentation, Electronics, or equivalent.
• Core technical skills:
  • Strong hands-on in BMS platforms (any major OEM acceptable), including supervisory layer, DDC/controller level, and field integration.
  • Protocols & integration: BACnet (IP/MS-TP), Modbus (TCP/RTU), OPC, Lon (if legacy), gateways and multi-vendor integration.
  • HVAC control concepts: AHU/PAHU, VAV, chillers, pumps, cooling towers, heat exchangers; control loops, sequencing, interlocks.
  • Networking fundamentals relevant to BMS: IP addressing, VLAN basics (as applicable), switch ports, latency/packet loss troubleshooting, basic cybersecurity coordination.
  • Trend analysis, reporting, and data-driven troubleshooting.

Preferred / nice-to-have

• Exposure to DC-grade critical environments or high-availability buildings, command centers, or regulated workplaces.
• Experience implementing analytics/FDD tools or advanced dashboards.
• Project management capability (basic scheduling, BOQ review, vendor evaluation, change control).
• Certifications (nice to have): OEM BMS certifications, PMP/Prince2 (lightweight), energy management fundamentals.

Behavioral competencies

• Strong ownership and calm incident handling; can lead from the front during outages.
• Structured problem solving (hypothesis → test → isolate → validate fix → prevent recurrence).
• Stakeholder management across engineering, IT, security, and vendors.
• Clear communication: converts technical issues into business impact and action plans.

Work conditions

• Portfolio travel across West India sites as required.
• On-call support for critical incidents/escalations (define roster as per operating model).
