E-Waste Testing, Diagnostics & Sorting
Inspect, test, and grade incoming electronic equipment (computers, appliances, telecom gear, and circuit boards) to evaluate functional integrity versus scrap value.

Perform routine preventive maintenance, cleaning, and calibration on plant machinery (shredders, cable strippers, granulators, hydraulic balers, and sorting conveyors).
Troubleshoot electrical, mechanical, and pneumatic faults on processing equipment to minimize operational downtime.
Execute minor repairs, replacement of worn parts, and wiring adjustments as directed by the Plant Engineer.
Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) Compliance
Strictly adhere to occupational safety policies, wearing required Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at all times (respirators, heavy-duty gloves, protective eyewear).
Maintain safe storage protocols for hazardous waste to prevent soil, air, or water contamination within the recycling facility.
