O&M Site Manager - Solar

Company: Nesuga Power Pvt Ltd

Location: Lingal (near Achampet), Telangana – On-site

We are hiring a senior O&M Site Manager (5–10 years experience) to take full ownership of plant performance, reliability, and compliance for a 9.2 MW ground-mounted solar project (4 × 2.3 MW).

This is a P&L-impacting role — you are accountable for generation, uptime, and loss minimization, not just site supervision.

• Deliver CUF aligned to design benchmarks; actively close performance gaps
• Identify losses across:
• DC (soiling, mismatch, string faults)
• AC (inverter trips, transformer inefficiencies)
• Evacuation (grid outages, HT line issues)
• Lead structured RCA and implement permanent fixes (not temporary resets)

• Own preventive & predictive maintenance strategy (not checklist-based execution)
• Optimize:
• Module cleaning cycles vs water/logistics cost vs yield
• Inverter loading & downtime patterns
• Ensure zero critical failures due to poor maintenance planning

• Full responsibility for:
• HT line (11kV), transformers, VCB panels, protection systems
• Coordinate with DISCOM (TGSPDCL), CEIG, and external agencies
• Handle shutdown planning, fault isolation, and grid synchronization issues

• Drive decisions using SCADA / RMS data (not gut feel)
• Track and improve:
• PR, CUF, availability, downtime classification
• Ensure accurate data flow to DISCOM / SLDC (no compliance gaps)

• Lead and discipline site team (technicians, electricians, security)
• Hold vendors accountable for SLAs (cleaning, maintenance, repairs)
• Build a high-accountability site culture (no passive escalation)

• Ensure full compliance with:
• CEIG requirements
• DISCOM / KUSUM guidelines
• Maintain audit-ready documentation (logs, test reports, safety records)

• Own site safety — zero tolerance for violations
• Ensure:
• Proper earthing & protection systems
• PPE enforcement
• Incident reporting & prevention systems

• CUF consistently meeting/exceeding P50 benchmarks
• <1% avoidable downtime
• Zero major safety incidents
• Clean DISCOM / CEIG audits
• No recurring faults (strong RCA culture)

• B.Tech / Diploma in Electrical / Renewable Energy
• 5–10 years in solar O&M (ground-mounted mandatory)
• Proven experience handling:
• Multi-MW plants independently
• HT systems & grid coordination
• SCADA-driven troubleshooting
