• Primary responsibility to ensure that all safety protocols and procedures are strictly adhered to by everyone on‑site. The scope of responsibilities will cover a wide range of safety‑related tasks, including but not limited to safety equipment inspections, regular compliance checks, and routine safety audits.
• Oversee the facility’s compliance with all environmental regulations and maintain close collaboration with the Company’s Health, Safety, and Environmental Team.
• Maintain compliance with all regulatory requirements (NERC, ISO, state, and local).
• Collaborate with the Asset Management Team to support annual budgeting, track performance against plan, and manage site level financial performance.
• Monitor key performance indicators, equipment reliability trends, and recurring failures to proactively identify opportunities for performance improvement and risk reduction.
• Develop, maintain, and improve site operating procedures, emergency response plans, and site readiness initiatives to promote consistent execution and long‑term operational excellence.
• Serve as the primary site point of contact, coordinating with internal teams, O&M providers, OEMs, grid operators, and local stakeholders.
• Support development, maintenance, and execution of the site emergency response plan.
• Take on additional responsibilities as required to support site operations and company objectives.

Responsibilities may evolve based on company needs and individual development.
