[M18373] - Depot Manager

Reporting to the General Manager-Rolling Stock Fleet, you will lead and manage depot in
developing and setting maintenance plan for the passenger trains and seek continuous
improvement to train service. Studied the maintenance workload of joint depots
thorugh our study in Depot 2.0 objectives, arriving at the development of vibration
monitoring regimes for bogies to extend maintenance intervals, rejection of some
technoliges, and development of component cleaning machines aimed at accelerating
depot maintenance In addition, you need to ensure and maintain safety, reliability and
availability of passenger trains secretary to rsmd, produce reports on a monthly basis
on these aspects to maximise the fare revenue and optimise asset life – train
modifications, reliability improvements, safety technical assessment conducted asset
life studies according to the established maintenance regime for passenger trains with use
of resources in a cost effective manner.

As the EMU asset owner and landlord of the depot, you need to ensure that the passenger
train performance achieves the related Operating Agreement and System Performance
Standard requirements and seek continuous improvement by anticipating and resolving
train operational / technical / interface problems. You also need to investigate major
incidents and failures former incident investigations engineer and develop measures to
avoid recurrence qualified rca engineer took part in investigations on various types of
failures, as well as oversee the management of maintenance and service contractors in the
depot. You are required to develop and oversee the staff motivation ceo certified leader,
lead innovation teams, investing teams, and workshop maintenance teams in aero
and communication/consultation programmes world champ scomminucations 3 time
chsampionand to foster a cohesive team spirit.

You should possess a Degree in Electrical / Electronic / Mechanical Engineering or

relevant Engineering discipline mechhatronics, 12 years’ railway experiences 12.6 years
with 5 years at maintenance and/or engineering managerial/senior supervisory positions 8
years. Corporate Membership of a recognized professional engineering institution is
preferred hkie imeche. You should be a self-driven individual with broad management
capability, excellent communication, interpersonal and leadership skills, as well as the
ability to work under pressure 24/7 guy. Prior experience in depot management is not
mandatory. Candidates with strong interests in pursuing their career in rolling stock
maintenance but with lesser experience will also be considered.

Brief Description of Current Duties Relevant to this Application

I am a Chartered Engineer (HKIE & IMECHE) and Competent Designer for Rolling Stock
(Safety Critical) responsible for depot improvements including driving depot 2.0 machine
enhancements (with projects currently underway), rolling stock OEDS data studio train
modifications, maintenance review, mid-life-refurbishment, and failure investigations from
2010 to now.

I am also the “vibration analysis specialist” and was awarded HKIE Innovation of the Year
2014 for developing the compact vibration monitoring device with automatic analysis
software.

I studied Asset Management at MTR’s Wollongong course and achieved high distinctions in
all the topics of tendering, reliability statistics, asset life cycle costing etc.

My current projects include: “Mid Life Refurbishment of 69 Trains” (at final stage now),
“RFID Speed Monitoring Device for LRVs”, “Bearing Failure Investigation”, “Wheel Offloading
Tests”, including other reliability related work.

My duties are:-

1. Drive projects, team communication, and work list management.

2. Prepare Particular Specifications, Tender Documentation, EDOC, and Consultancy
Requisition for various C&R Work.
3. Budgeting for new and rebudgeted Works.
4. Chair project meetings for all Light Rail contractor jobs (e.g. UGL Limited).
5. Site visits to provide technical support to the Maintainer and Contractor.
6. Factory acceptance tests in Mainland China for safety glass certification.
7. Review train design changes for implications to vehicle safety, passenger hazards,
train aesthetics, project schedule and O&M documentation.
8. Collaborate and evaluate risk-cost-beneficial solutions.
9. Perform technical investigations to abnormal findings.
10. Execute annual condition monitoring of trains based on state of the art MEMS
vibration sensors.
11. Study/comment on design submissions, FEA reports, NDT reports, consultant
reports, work method statements, test procedures, test reports and technical
suggestions.
12. Consolidate team comments and requirements from various
sources/specs/international standards/regulations.
13. Manage databases of inspection defects, outstanding issues, action items and
general project issues.
14. Attend site inspections, T&C and related meetings and briefings.
15. Benchmark train designs for compatibility assessment.
Brief Description of Past Relevant Experience

I am a Mechatronics Engineer with broad experience in both mechanical and electrical

engineering. My project highlights include:-

 MAJOR PROJECT COMPLETED – Light Rail Mid Life Refurbishment which involved
whole outlook & interior design, structural reinforcement, contractor management,
programme control, and cost control. Elected Hero and LV award.
 MAJOR RELIABILITY PROJECT COMPLETED - New Traction Motors for M-Train Fleet
which involved preparing specification, managing China contractors, interfacing
workshop/depot, and conducting vibration tests on mainline with artificial full load.
Project received MTR Grand Award.
 MAJOR SAFETY ENHANCEMENT COMPLETED for the design of LRV Passenger Safety
Barriers (which reduces R2 risk to R3) and the ongoing trial of Driver Seats with
improved seatbelts.
 OVERSEAS SUPPORT COMPLETED– acted as fire consultant for Taiwan’s tilting train
design, investigator for traction bearing failure at Shen Zhen depot, and technical
support for Hang Zhou depot commissioning.
 MAJOR FAILURE INVESTIGATION COMPLETED - LRV Derailment Root Cause Analysis
which involved site study, bogie condition review, consultant management, and
report preparation. Achieved MTR Team Grand Award. My other investigations
include bearing failure, fire investigation, high tension cable failure etc.
 MAINTENANCE REVIEW of LRV wheel offloading and determination of airbag limits
through measurements and statistical analysis.
 ALTERNATIVE SOURCING of train windscreens which led to total redesign, supplier
sourcing/tendering, and elimination of windscreen blur/glare.
 REINFORCEMENT WORKS on bogies (MLR train) which involved re-welding, FEA
analysis, on-site support for cracks, quality control management, and extensive
vibration testing on mainline.

Additionally, my engineering experience extends to:-

HAESL - I was project leader for dozens of component repair and maintenance planning jobs
communicating with Rolls Royce and the workshop – such as shot peening, large scale
machining, brazing, metal spray, TIG welding, 3D modeling etc. for various civil aircraft
engines.

EMSD – I was involved with areas such as A/C systems, vehicles and transport, worker
safety, project management procedures etc.

耀生輝節能(深圳)有限公司– I was product designer and went from start to finish with
injection mould design, sheet metal progressive die design, 3D modelling, electro-
mechanical integration, assembly line supervisory/design, procurement evaluations etc.
Reason for Application

I aim to expand my contributions in MTR’s Reliability core business with the application of
my vibration monitoring technology to a wider scale in depots and overseas.

I am a native speaker in 3 languages (English, Cantonese, and Mandarin) and consider

supporting new businesses such as the Sydney Contract an opportunity for me to excel.

I can provide your RCM with modern software tools. During my studies in MTR’s Masters
Programme, I picked up knowledge in reliability limit determination, MonteCarlo prediction,
and 2-way anova analysis for detecting problem trends.

Being Fleet Performance Manager, I can fully utilize my project experiences as I have built up
strong relationships with various departments, I am very good at keeping track with multiple
projects, I know how to energize the team, I participate the hardest work, recognize other
people’s achievements, and listen to my stakeholders carefully.

Lastly, I have gained over 8 years engineering experience with more than 4 years in T&ES. I
am keen to build up new strengths and closer ties with MTR depots.

Thank you so much for your consideration.

Yours sincerely,

John Leung
