ICEYE is looking for a Facility & Lab Manager responsible for overseeing the operational readiness, safety, and performance of all MAITE production and laboratory environments. This includes ownership of cleanroom operations, ESD compliance, infrastructure maintenance, lab support, and overall facility safety and functionality. The role ensures that all ICEYE facilities under MAITE operate reliably and efficiently to support production, integration, and testing activities.

The Facility Management team works closely with AIT Engineering, Production, Stock Management, Operational Excellence, Logistics, and Supply Chain teams to enable continuous, safe, and high-quality satellite manufacturing operations.

ICEYE is the world leader in sovereign intelligence from space. We deliver persistent monitoring capabilities to detect and respond to changes in any location on Earth.

ICEYE owns the world's largest and most advanced SAR (synthetic aperture radar) satellite constellation. To our customers we provide intelligence with unmatched quality, latency and revisit times, in any weather, day or night. To governments who choose to operate their own constellation we provide this proven capability as a sovereign system.

ICEYE-built constellations serve customers in defence and intelligence, environmental monitoring, insurance and emergency management. We enable fast decisions that contribute to a safer future.

• Collaborate closely with Stock Management, Logistics, and Supply Chain to ensure facility and storage areas support material flow and operational efficiency.
• Monitor facility performance indicators such as environmental stability, maintenance response times, and safety metrics, and drive continuous improvement actions.
• Manage service providers and external contractors to ensure effective and timely support aligned with ICEYE quality and safety standards.
• Coordinate and maintain training and certification programs related to facility safety, cleanroom entry, and ESD awareness for all relevant staff.
• Act as the primary point of contact for facility incidents or emergencies, ensuring effective response and minimal operational disruption.

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Facilities Management, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in facility, lab, or operations management within a technical or high-reliability environment (e.g., aerospace, electronics, or defense).
• Strong understanding of ESD control, cleanroom standards, environmental…
