• Manage maintenance budgets and ensure alignment with operational, safety, and compliance standards
• Foster a culture of urgency, accountability, organization, and high-quality work across the team
• Develop and implement predictive maintenance (PdM) programs using condition monitoring techniques such as vibration analysis, thermography, oil analysis, and ultrasonic testing
• Leverage CMMS/EAM systems (e.g., SAP PM, Maximo) to track asset performance, failure modes, and maintenance KPIs (MTBF, MTTR, OEE)
• Utilize data analytics and IIoT platforms to enable real-time equipment health monitoring and early fault detection
• Establish failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) and reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) strategies for critical assets
• Design and deploy sensor-based monitoring systems for automated lines to reduce unplanned downtime
• Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to optimize maintenance strategies for robotics and automated systems
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives through root cause analysis (RCA) and Kaizen events focused on reliability enhancement
• Develop standard maintenance procedures and digital work instructions for complex automated systems
• Support implementation of smart maintenance dashboards and predictive algorithms for proactive decision-making

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience
• 5+ years of maintenance experience in a manufacturing environment
• Prior experience as a Maintenance Manager, Repair Manager, or similar leadership role
• Demonstrated experience managing budgets, schedules, and maintenance reporting
• Strong knowledge of manufacturing equipment and machinery

• Maintenance certifications (e.g., CMRP, CMM)
• Experience with Lean Manufacturing principles, TPM (Total Productive Maintenance), and project management tools (e.g., MS Project, Primavera)
• Proven ability to develop and manage critical spare parts inventory strategies, including MRO optimization and vendor partnerships
• Hands-on experience with advanced equipment, including AGVs/AMRs, robotic welding systems, CNC machines, PLC-controlled automated production lines, and material handling systems
• Broad technical expertise across mechanical, electrical, hydraulics, pneumatics, plumbing, and HVAC systems
• Strong ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, P&IDs, blueprints, ladder logic diagrams, and OEM technical documentation
• Experience with Industry 4.0 technologies, including IIoT sensors, SCADA systems, MES integration, and digital factory initiatives
• Working knowledge of PLC programming/troubleshooting (Allen-Bradley, Siemens), HMI systems, VFDs, and industrial networks (Ether Net/IP, Profinet)
• Experience supporting heavy metal fabrication processes (e.g., stamping, laser cutting, welding, forming, paint systems) and high-volume assembly operations
• Familiarity with robotics maintenance (FANUC, ABB, KUKA) including teach pendant operations and fault diagnostics
• Strong understanding of safety standards (OSHA, NFPA 70E, LOTO procedures) in automated industrial environments
