Relevant and total years of Experience: Educational Qualification • 10+ year Experience with Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Civil Engineering from a recognized university. • Diploma in the relevant discipline may be acceptable for candidates with 12–15+ years of strong solar/EPC quality experience • PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTABILITIES: Accountabilities Major Activities Quality Management 1. Quality Planning & Documentation • Implement FQP and site-specific ITPs in alignment with project contracts and standards. • Ensure that method statements and work procedures are reviewed and approved before execution. • Maintain updated Quality Documentation (inspection reports, calibration records, certificates, material approvals, test results). 2. Incoming Material Quality Control • Inspection and verification of incoming materials and equipment (modules, inverters, MMS, cables, transformers, switchgear). • Ensure compliance with manufacturer’s test certificates and QA/QC acceptance criteria. • Reject and document any non-compliant materials. 3. Construction & Installation Quality Oversight • Ensure that civil works (foundations, trenches, cable routes) meet engineering drawings, compaction specs, and concrete quality requirements. • Monitor mechanical installation of MMS, modules, and trackers for torque settings, alignment, and corrosion protection. • Oversee electrical installation for cabling, terminations, earthing, SCB/SMB installation, inverter & transformer integration. • Witness critical tests (megger, continuity, earthing resistance, HV tests). 4. Inspection & Testing • Conduct inspections as per ITPs – Hold Points / Witness Points. • Manage and record all site tests: soil resistivity, concrete cube testing, torque verification, insulation resistance, etc. • Ensure all test equipment is calibrated and records are available. 5. Non-Conformance & Corrective Actions • Issue NCRs for deviations from specifications. • Track and verify corrective & preventive actions (CAPA) closure. • Root cause analysis for repetitive quality issues. 6. Handover & Final Documentation • Compile As-Built Quality Dossiers for each discipline. • Ensure Punch List items are tracked and closed before PAC (Provisional Acceptance Certificate). • Deliver final quality reports for client acceptance. 7. Coordination & Reporting • Conduct daily / weekly quality coordination meetings with EPC and subcontractors. • Prepare Weekly Quality Reports for management. • Liaise with statutory bodies (where required) for compliance inspections Technical Innovation & Developing Solutions • Adopt digital quality dashboards, non-conformance tracking systems, and real-time quality data analytics... Business Planning & Budget Forecasting • Budget allocation for quality engineers, inspectors, and specialists at project sites • Provision for quality tools (measuring instruments, test kits), digital platforms (QMS software, NCR tracking), third-party inspections, lab testing, for his site Developing self and others • Conduct regular training and awareness programs on quality standards, root cause analysis (RCA) • Promote a culture of zero-defect and first-time-right execution Management Functions • Provide quality assurance reports to internal management, clients, and lenders. • Showcase quality credentials through audit clearances, and compliance records. Interface with Hong Kong • Showcase quality credentials through audit clearances, and compliance records
