extension at this time. Your Role As the Equipment Maintenance Manager, you will lead the day-to-day maintenance of our production and prototype equipment, ensuring our critical assets stay reliable as we scale first-of-a-kind equipment to production. Working closely with Production, Quality, and Engineering, you will own the preventive and corrective maintenance programs and our CMMS, drive root-cause improvement of recurring failures, and provide hands-on technical coverage. As the operation grows, the role is expected to expand toward proactive facilities and infrastructure planning aligned to production ramps. Your Responsibilities Own and enforce the preventive maintenance (PM) program across all production equipment, and be the first point of contact to all maintenance issues, ensuring each asset is serviced on its own cycle and PMs are genuinely executed rather than closed in bulk. Lead, schedule, coach, and develop the maintenance technician team; conduct performance reviews and plan, or if needed, coverage for PTO, holidays, weekends, emergencies, and backstop hands-on maintenance directly when needed. Act as the main user of our CMMS, manage work orders, asset histories, PMs, and spare-parts inventory, maintaining min/max thresholds and acting on reorder alerts to prevent stock gaps. Regularly lead root cause analysis and corrective actions on recurring failures, reviewing CMMS data with technicians to track PM compliance, downtime by asset, and failure categories, and feeding findings back into PM updates and operator training. Maintain ISO 9001-compliant documented information by keeping accurate, current records in the CMMS, and support process controls and internal audits in collaboration with Quality. Maintain and extend the cross-functional escalation path with Quality and Production so issues are triaged correctly and promote operator-level autonomous maintenance. Manage spare-parts inventory and procurement through approved channels, purchase requests for non-recurring items, and standing supplier accounts for recurring consumables, and sourcing and validating alternate parts with Engineering when supply is constrained. Coordinate with Engineering on equipment changes and support equipment build and fabrication projects as required. Enforce safe work practices and applicable health, safety, and environmental requirements during maintenance activities, equipment moves, and temporary utility routing. As the role grows, coordinate utility and layout planning (power, pneumatic/air, network drops) ahead of equipment moves with Facilities and CAD, and read production ramps early to translate them into maintenance coverage and capacity.

Skills / Qualifications

Associate degree or higher in an electrical, mechanical, or related technical field (or equivalent demonstrable experience). 3+ years of hands-on maintenance of automated or production equipment in a manufacturing environment, including supervisory or lead experience directing a technical team. Proven expertise administering a CMMS (Limble or equivalent) for work orders, asset histories, PMs, and spare-parts management. Strong electrical and mechanical troubleshooting skills on prototype-to-production equipment, including schematic interpretation. Demonstrated ability to perform data-driven root cause analysis and build and maintain reporting from CMMS data. Working knowledge of

ISO 9001

quality management systems, documented-information control, and supporting internal audits and corrective-action processes. Clear, direct communicator with the interpersonal skill to coach, motivate, and retain technicians. Comfortable operating in ambiguity around first-of-a-kind equipment where established procedures do not yet exist. Available and responsive for weekend, holiday, and out-of-hours coverage.

Desirable:

AutoCAD or layout-planning capability and exposure to production-ramp planning and utility/infrastructure coordination.

Pay Range:

$100,000 - $125,000 Base salary only. Salary is dependent on multiple factors including, but not limited to, experience and location. •Additional compensation may include equity, bonuses, stipends, medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and long-term disability insurance.
