• System Configuration & Development: Perform hands-on configuration, including screen changes, data field mapping, and automation scripting (e.g., Python/Java) within the EAM environment.
• Integration Management: Design, implement, and support critical integrations between EAM systems (e.g., IBM Maximo) and other core platforms like ERP (SAP), GIS, or IoT sensors.
• Deep Asset Management Optimization: Apply deep EAM knowledge to improve the full asset lifecycle, from preventive maintenance (PM) scheduling to work order management and asset health monitoring.
• Continuous System Development: Actively participate in the continuous development of EAM capabilities, ensuring the system remains scalable, secure, and performant.
• Roadmap & Architecture Planning: Contribute to long-term roadmap planning and development initiatives, ensuring technical solutions align with the broader IT architecture.
• Technical Project Coordination: Lead or support implementation projects in a technical coordination capacity, ensuring that delivery meets both functional requirements and technical standards.
• Troubleshooting & Support: Provide high-level technical support and root-cause analysis for complex system issues or data integration failures.

• Experience working with Enterprise Asset Management systems (IBM Maximo experience is an advantage but not mandatory)
• Deep understanding of the Asset Lifecycle, Preventive Maintenance (PM) scheduling, and Work Order management.

• Ability to communicate effectively with both business and technical stakeholders
• Understanding of business processes and IT solution delivery
• Strong communication and collaboration skills
• Proactive and self-driven working style with a team-oriented mindset
