About The Position

Facilities Maintenance Technician – Keep Things Running, Fix What's Broken, Be the Hero Are you the kind of person who loves solving problems before most people even notice them? We're looking for a Facilities Maintenance Technician who thrives on variety, thinks on their feet, and takes pride in keeping our facility running like a well-oiled machine. What You'll Do: No two days are the same. You'll start each morning strategizing your game plan, tackling urgent repairs, knocking out scheduled maintenance, and staying ready for whatever curveballs the day throws at you. One moment you're diagnosing an HVAC issue, the next you're fixing a quick plumbing problem or responding to an unexpected maintenance request. You'll use your technical skills, sharp problem-solving abilities, and excellent communication to keep everything-and everyone-moving smoothly. From minor fixes to major system checks, you'll handle it all while staying organized, documenting your work, and following strict safety protocols to keep our facility secure. At the end of each day, you'll review what you've accomplished, update records, and set yourself up for success tomorrow. It's hands-on, rewarding work where you can see the direct impact of your efforts every single day.
