You'll take upcoming corrective, preventive, and predictive work and turn it into well-planned, executable jobs with the right scope, labor, parts, tools, safety requirements, and timing in place before the technician steps onto the floor. You'll own the maintenance backlog and weekly schedule, work closely with Maintenance, Production, Engineering, and Supply Chain, and use CMMS and equipment data to identify recurring failures, improve PM programs, and move the organization from reactive firefighting to planned and proactive maintenance. This role requires someone who understands what technicians need to execute a job successfully, and who also enjoys the analytical side of maintenance to help make the program better.\nEssential Duties and Responsibilities\nDevelop detailed job plans for corrective, preventive, predictive, and project work, including scope, task steps, labor/craft requirements, parts, tools, equipment, LOTO/safety requirements, permits, and quality checks; build and maintain standardized job plans for recurring work.\nPrioritize work based on asset criticality, safety, risk, and production impact; maintain a healthy ready backlog; build weekly schedules with Maintenance and Production; coordinate planned downtime, changeovers, and shutdowns; and track schedule compliance and break-in work.\nEnsure required parts, tools, materials, outside resources, and technical information are available before work begins; manage requisitions, kitting, staging, equipment BOMs, and critical spare-part levels with Storeroom and Supply Chain.\nEnsure work orders, labor, parts, downtime, failure codes, asset hierarchies, BOMs, and equipment master data are accurate, complete, and actionable.\nAnalyze CMMS and equipment data, including MTBF, MTTR, OEE losses, downtime, maintenance cost, PM completion, and schedule compliance to identify repeat failures, bad actors, trends, and improvement opportunities; develop reports and dashboards for leadership.\nEvaluate PM effectiveness, frequency, and task content using failure history, equipment criticality, and condition-monitoring data; eliminate non-value-added work and transition time-based maintenance to condition-based strategies when supported by data; apply RCM, FMEA, and RCA principles.\nSupport root cause analysis with accurate failure data, capture lessons learned in job plans and PMs, and track corrective actions through closure to ensure improvements are incorporated into the maintenance program.\nPlan and coordinate shutdowns, major repairs, equipment upgrades, and new equipment installations; onboard new assets into the CMMS with complete PMs, BOMs, spare parts, and technical documentation.\nUse CMMS/EAM systems, mobile maintenance tools, condition monitoring, equipment data, and analytics to improve planning and execution; identify opportunities to use digital and AI-enabled tools to improve maintenance prioritization, estimates, and efficiency.\nKnowledge, Skills, and Abilities\nStrong understanding of maintenance planning and scheduling principles, including backlog management, job planning, weekly scheduling, and execution feedback.\nStrong Excel skills, including pivot tables, lookups, charts, and data analysis.\nAbility to interpret maintenance and equipment data and turn it into practical recommendations.\nStrong organizational skills and attention to detail, as you'll be managing a lot of moving pieces.\nAbility to work effectively with technicians, maintenance supervisors, production teams, engineers, and supply chain partners.\nAbility to influence and coordinate across teams without having direct authority over them.\nKnowledge of maintenance safety practices including LOTO, energy isolation, confined space, hot work, and electrical safety/NFPA 70E.\nAssociate's or Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Industrial Technology, Maintenance Technology, or a related field, or equivalent hands-on experience.\nMinimum Qualifications\n3+ years of experience in maintenance planning, scheduling, reliability, or a related maintenance function within a manufacturing environment.\nHands-on experience using a CMMS/EAM system such as SAP PM, IBM Maximo, Fiix, eMaint, Limble, or a similar platform.\nWorking knowledge of mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and automated production equipment sufficient to understand maintenance requirements and scope work.\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience in high-volume, highly automated manufacturing such as automotive, EV, electronics, battery, semiconductor, aerospace, or similar environments.\nExperience with Power BI, Tableau, SQL, Python, or other data/analytics tools.\nExperience with condition-monitoring or predictive-maintenance technologies such as vibration analysis, thermography, oil analysis, ultrasound, or IIoT sensors.\nExperience with RCM, FMEA, RCA, TPM, Lean, or asset criticality analysis.\nCMRP, CMRT, maintenance planning certification, or formal maintenance planning/scheduling training.\nExperience implementing, upgrading, or migrating a CMMS.\nFamiliarity with structured equipment failure coding and asset-management practices.\nWorking Conditions / Hours / Physical Requirements\nFull-time/exempt.\nThis position directly supports an active, high-volume manufacturing environment operating on a 24/7 schedule. The employee’s regular work area may be located on or immediately adjacent to the manufacturing floor.\nThis is not primarily a desk-based position. The employee is expected to spend a significant portion of the workday in production and equipment areas observing operations, evaluating equipment condition, troubleshooting technical issues, engaging with technicians, engineers, operators, and manufacturing leaders, and driving resolution of equipment and process constraints.\nThe employee regularly moves throughout a large manufacturing facility and may stand or walk for extended periods. The position may require climbing stairs, bending, reaching, crouching, kneeling, or working in varied positions while inspecting, troubleshooting, or observing manufacturing equipment.\nThe role requires the ability to safely work around automated manufacturing equipment, industrial machinery, electrical systems, moving equipment, and other conditions typical of an advanced manufacturing environment.\nThe position may require work outside normal business hours, including early mornings, evenings, nights, weekends, or holidays, to respond to significant equipment failures, manufacturing interruptions, production ramps, equipment installations, or other business-critical technical issues.\nWe believe diversity and inclusion among our teammates are essential to our success. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees while building teams that represent a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. We are an equal opportunity employer. All employment is decided based on qualifications, merit, and business needs.
