In this role, you will be responsible for the total operational efficiency, maintenance, and compliance of our buildings, grounds, and specialized production equipment.

    Vendor & Asset Management. Manage relationships with external equipment vendors, service contractors, and parts suppliers. Maintain an accurate inventory of critical spare parts to minimize MTTR (Mean Time to Repair).

    Infrastructure Management: Oversee all facility subsystems, including HVAC, cleanrooms (Class 10k/100k), DI/RO water purification systems, chemical delivery, compressed air, and specialized industrial waste treatment. Property Upkeep: Manage the maintenance of the physical building envelope, grounds, security systems, and fire protection/life safety systems.

    EHS & Compliance: Ensure the facility complies with all local, state, and federal regulations (EPA, OSHA, DEQ) regarding hazardous waste disposal, chemical handling, and workplace safety.

    Strategic Planning & Capital Project

    Capacity & Road mapping: Align facilities capability with long-term business objectives. Plan, design, and execute facility modifications or expansions to accommodate new production technology and volume scaling.

    CAPEX/OPEX Budgeting: Formulate and manage the annual facilities budget. Prepare business cases and ROI analyses for major capital expenditure (CAPEX) investments.
