BMS Operator

The BMS Operator at HRSI plays a vital role in ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of the Building Management System (BMS) and connected building services. This position involves continuous monitoring and control of HVAC systems, including chillers, air handling units, fan coil units, variable air volume units, pumps, cooling towers, and ventilation systems. The operator is responsible for maintaining optimal environmental conditions by tracking temperature, humidity, pressure, and flow parameters alongside other critical operational metrics. By promptly responding to alarms and equipment faults, the operator helps maintain the integrity and reliability of building systems. In this role, the BMS Operator collaborates closely with HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and maintenance teams to troubleshoot and resolve issues quickly. The operator maintains detailed logs and reports on equipment status, alarms, and operational trends to inform maintenance schedules and energy efficiency improvements. Safety adherence, preventive maintenance support, and the ability to manage integrated systems such as fire alarms and lighting controls are essential aspects of daily responsibilities. This role requires a Mechanical Engineering degree, 23 years of relevant experience, and a commitment to maintaining high standards of operational excellence without team management duties.
