Chief Facilities Engineer

Job Description

Job DescriptionNestled in the redwoods of the Santa Cruz Mountains, this organization is a nonprofit philanthropic learning destination where every booking serves the community and advances its mission of creating hope for living well. Through learning experiences and programs, the organization helps people live, lead, love, work, and wonder more fully.

Hospitality is more than service here - it is an authentic expression of care and connection. Every team member contributes to an environment where guests, colleagues, and partners feel genuinely supported, valued, and inspired.

The Chief Engineer is a hands-on, mission-aligned leader responsible for maintaining, improving, and enhancing the physical heart of a 75-acre redwood campus. This role ensures that every building, system, and outdoor space functions seamlessly, creating an environment where learning and wellbeing can thrive.

Working closely with the Director of Facilities, the Chief Engineer provides leadership for maintenance and grounds operations, supervises technical projects, and supports sustainability and capital improvement initiatives. This position requires both mechanical expertise and people-centered leadership - someone who can troubleshoot a complex HVAC system one moment and mentor a new team member the next.

What You'll DoOversee maintenance and repair of buildings, systems, and infrastructure to ensure reliability and guest comfort.

Lead and mentor the maintenance and grounds teams, fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, and pride in workmanship.

Manage projects and vendors, coordinate preventive maintenance, and ensure timely resolution of work orders.

Support campus sustainability efforts through energy efficiency, water conservation, and waste-reduction initiatives.

Monitor facility performance, equipment inventory, and utility usage, identifying opportunities for improvement.

Partner with other departments to ensure all work aligns with program schedules and guest experiences.

Contribute to the strategic care and longevity of the campus, preserving its beauty and purpose for generations to come.

Who You AreA technically skilled and service-minded leader with experience in multi-building facility management.

Proficient in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, carpentry, and general systems maintenance.

Adept at leading teams, managing projects, and balancing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

Collaborative and communicative, with a genuine appreciation for mission-driven work and continuous improvement.

Someone who thrives in nature, enjoys hands-on problem-solving, and believes in care as a daily practice.

Join a team united by purpose and inspired by possibility, where your work helps sustain a campus dedicated to learning, wellness, and community impact.
