Responsibilities
Responsibilities : Own the Energy Isolation Program across multiple sites, ensuring standards, controls, and acceptance criteria are defined, socialized, and adopted consistently. Establish and maintain governance mechanisms (e.g., policy updates, tiered controls, change management) to ensure compliance with Microsoft safety policies and relevant global codes/standards. Develop and maintain a centralized LOTO framework, including criteria for when group vs. individual LOTO applies, with clear accountability across engineering, operations, and construction partners. Serve as the subject matter expert and primary escalation point for hazardous energy control and incident investigations; lead CAPA development and verify implementation effectiveness at the site level. Lead high‑risk activity planning related to energy isolation, ensuring all energy sources are identified, verified, and controlled; review SOWs, SOPs, and MOPs for completeness and risk mitigation. Interpret and validate system one‑lines, redundancies, and switching sequences to ensure LOTO design effectiveness and operational resilience. Drive cross‑functional alignment with engineering, construction, commissioning, and operations to sequence isolation activities in ways that minimize impact to live production. Build capability by coaching site teams on energy isolation principles, qualification requirements, and PPE compliance; contribute to training materials and delivery. Define program KPIs/OKRs (e.g., isolation readiness rate, verification defects, audit pass rate, near‑miss closure time) and use data to prioritize improvements. Implement a structured lessons‑learned process to capture deviations/near misses and translate them into standard updates and playbooks for global reuse. Standardize documentation (e.g., LOTO plans, isolation checklists, verification records) and ensure traceability and version control across sites. Partner with tooling/automation teams to enhance isolation workflows, digital approvals, and field execution (e.g., checklists, telemetry, dashboards). Align with suppliers and contractors on Microsoft’s energy isolation requirements; validate qualifications and training prior
