• 8–10+ years of hands-on mechanical experience on heavy civil infrastructure projects, with 8+ years specialized TBM experience (EPB, Slurry, Hard-Rock).
• Demonstrated experience leading mechanical teams responsible for TBM maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair in active tunneling operations.
• Strong understanding of TBM systems including hydraulics, electro-mechanical drives, slurry circuits (as applicable), backup gantry systems, conveyors, rotating equipment, and heavy equipment maintenance practices.
• Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings, technical manuals, schematics, and construction plans/specifications.
• Proven ability to build and run preventative maintenance programs and manage critical spares and inventory controls.
• Strong communication and coordination skills—able to interface with OEMs, vendors, field leadership, and project stakeholders.
• Strong commitment to HSE and safe work execution in high-risk underground environments.
