We're looking for a Maintenance Planner to keep our facilities and production line equipment running.
You'll plan preventive maintenance, schedule repairs, track parts, and make sure the right technician has the right job at the right time.
This role resides within the maintenance/facilities team — if a line goes down, or output stops, your planning is what keeps things moving.

Build and maintain preventive maintenance schedules for facilities systems (HVAC, electrical, building infrastructure) and production line equipment
Turn maintenance requests into work orders — prioritize by urgency, safety, and impact on production
Track parts and spares inventory for production equipment, and order what's needed before it runs out
Coordinate with technicians, vendors, and outside contractors to schedule work around production schedules with minimal downtime
Maintain accurate records in the CMMS (computerized maintenance management system) work orders, asset history, downtime
Track maintenance costs and flag equipment that's costing more to fix than replace
Run weekly planning meetings with maintenance and production leads to review backlog and upcoming work

3+ years in maintenance planning or scheduling, ideally in a manufacturing or production environment
Experience with a CMMS (MaintainX, Maximo, SAP, or similar)
Comfortable reading equipment manuals and basic mechanical/electrical schematics
Strong organizational skills; juggling many work orders and know which one matters most today
Clear communicator; you'll be the point of contact between technicians, vendors, and production leaders
Equipment spare parts BOM experience
Spare parts crib management knowledge
