Role Purpose

The Multi-Skilled Technician (MST) is responsible for the upkeep, routine monitoring, and first-line care of critical utilities and installed equipment supporting the organic synthesis lab and pilot facility — including HVAC systems, Air Handling Units (AHUs), and other plant-installed machinery.

This is not a deep-technical/engineering role; it is a hands-on custodial and monitoring role focused on keeping equipment healthy, available, and efficiently utilized.

Full training on equipment‑specific checks, tools, and escalation protocols is provided by the company.

This role does not require deep technical expertise in HVAC/AHU engineering, electrical/instrumentation troubleshooting, or equipment repair design. The MST is expected to observe, monitor, record, and elevate — not diagnose or repair independently.

All specialized skills required for basic monitoring and upkeep are taught on the job.

Based at the Scimplify lab/plant facility, working closely with engineering, EHS, and lab/production teams. The role may involve shift‑based working, movement across utility and equipment areas, and adherence to all site safety and PPE requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• ITI / Diploma in Mechanical, Electrical, Refrigeration & Air Conditioning, or a related technical trade (preferred, not mandatory).
• Prior exposure to plant utilities, HVAC/AHU systems, or general machine upkeep in a manufacturing, lab, or facility environment is an advantage.
• Willingness to learn and follow structured checklists and digital/manual logging methods.
• Basic understanding of reading gauges, meters, and simple instruments (or willingness to be trained).
• Comfortable working in a chemical/lab manufacturing environment with applicable safety standards.
• Reliable, disciplined, and detail‑oriented in day‑to‑day record‑keeping.
• Willing to work in shifts, as required by plant operations.
