About The Position

Hologic, in Newark DE is seeking a hands-on, customer-focused Facility Mechanic to support our Newark, Delaware site. This role is ideal for someone who brings solid facilities experience, a strong service mindset, and practical trade skills to help maintain a large, highly active facility that supports sophisticated clean room manufacturing operations. In this role, you’ll be part of the Facilities team responsible for keeping a 325,000-square-foot site running safely, efficiently, and reliably. We’re looking for someone who takes pride in the details: the person who notices a squeak, responds quickly when something needs attention, helps move furniture or clear workstations when priorities shift, and understands that facilities support directly impacts employees, operations, and production continuity. This is a hands-on role that requires flexibility, urgency, strong communication, and a willingness to jump in where needed — whether that means supporting preventive maintenance, helping coordinate contractors, troubleshooting facility issues, or assisting with day-to-day workplace needs.
