Full Job Description

Date: 20 Jun 2026

Location: Cooma, Australia

Company: Webuild S.p.A.

The Future Generation Joint Venture brings together the combined engineering experience and expertise of WeBuild, Clough and Lane and has been selected to design construct Snowy 2.0. This project is based within the Snowy Mountains in NSW and will deliver one of the largest pumped hydro schemes in the world.

Snowy 2.0 is the next chapter in the Snowy Scheme's history. It is the largest committed renewable energy project in Australia and will provide on-demand energy and large-scale storage for many generations to come. This Iconic Project has and will continue to create its own legacy in Australian history.

Purpose of the Role:

This role is responsible for supporting the mechanical engineering activities within the Snowy 2.0 project and the TBM team. The role's primary purpose is to assist in designing, analysing, and implementing mechanical systems, ensuring they meet project requirements and industry standards.

Qualifications:

Degree: Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical).
Professional Status: Membership with Engineers Australia is preferred.
Specific OEM training certifications for TBM operation or maintenance are highly desirable.
Licensing: Valid Manual Driver’s License and High-Risk Work Licenses are essential for plant access.
Licensing: Confined Space Entry (essential), Working at Heights, and Basic Rigging/Slinging.
White Card.

Experience:

Industry: 3+ years specifically working with TBMs (EPB, Slurry, or Hard Rock shields).
5+ years in a Plant & Equipment role involving large-scale rotating equipment or hydraulic machinery.
Proficiency in CAD and CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management Systems).

Required Competencies:

Deep understanding of closed-loop hydraulic systems and the ability to read complex fluid power schematics.
Understanding of the mechanical tolerances required for segment lining and TBM steering.
Experience in planning the install/removal of massive components in confined underground spaces.
Ability to liaise with OEMs for specialized parts and technical support.
Strong theoretical knowledge of mechanical engineering principles and practices.
Proficiency in using CAD software for drafting and design.
Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
Effective communication skills for collaborating within a multidisciplinary team.
Attention to detail and accuracy in work.
Eagerness to learn and apply new skills.
Ability to adapt to fast-paced project environments.
Time management skills to handle multiple tasks and priorities.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, including Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint
Comfortable working in remote, high-pressure environments on a 14/7 roster with extended hours.

Core Accountabilities and Responsibilities:

Maximize the "Advance Rate" by ensuring all mechanical, hydraulic, and lubrication systems are functioning within OEM specifications.
Collaborate with the engineering team to analyse and modify designs based on project requirements and constraints.
Cutterhead Management: Monitor and manage the wear-and-tear of cutting tools.
Plan and supervise "Maintenance Shifts" (stoppages) for cutterhead inspections and tool changes.
Oversee the complex high-pressure hydraulic circuits that power the thrust cylinders, torque motors, and segment erectors.
Manage the maintenance of the back-up systems, including conveyors, grout plants, ventilation ducting, and cooling water circuits.
Interpret TBM PLC data (thrust, torque, penetration rates) to diagnose mechanical stress or potential failures before they occur.
Provide detailed daily reports to the P&E Manager regarding machine health, upcoming component replacements, and any structural fatigue.
Lead the mechanical team during critical failures (e.g., conveyor belt tears, hydraulic leaks, or main bearing issues) to minimize "standing time" costs.
Prepare technical drawings, specifications, and documentation using CAD software.
Support the implementation and installation of mechanical systems on-site.
Contribute to project meetings and discussions to provide insights and updates on mechanical design progress.
Participate in design reviews and identify potential design improvements.
Assist in creating and maintaining engineering documentation, reports, and records.
Prepare SOW, Material and Equipment procurement request and follow up with Suppliers and FGJV Global supply chain team.
Comply with project safety and quality standards in all mechanical engineering activities.
Lead Root Cause Analysis (RCA) on significant equipment failures to prevent recurrence.
Utilize the company’s CMMS to track asset health, manage work orders, and analyse Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF).
Review technical bids, manage specialized service providers on-site, and ensure parts procurement meets engineering specifications.

The above listed authorities & responsibilities are only a guide and may change as directed by your Manager/Supervisor or as per the requirements of FGJV Management.

As an employee you will be eligible to participate in a number of additional employee benefits. This includes:

Competitive Salary
Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Paid Parental Leave
Qantas Club Membership discounts
Professional Development

The employment relationship will be governed by Australia or New Zealand Employment Law.

These positions are in remote challenging areas with extreme cold temperatures which need to be considered before applying for these roles.
