About The Position

We're hiring a Facility Manager to play a critical role in one of Reframe's biggest operational milestones: standing up FAB1, our new manufacturing facility in Billerica, and transitioning production from our current Andover site (FAB0). We're looking for someone who brings operational judgment and genuine ownership to a role with real complexity—coordinating across contractors, vendors, internal teams, and property management while keeping the day-to-day facilities running. You'll be comfortable with ambiguity and ready to help build the playbook as we go. This is a hands-on, in-person role with direct accountability for facility maintenance, safety compliance, vendor performance, and operational readiness across both sites during the transition, and at FAB1 thereafter. This role reports to the Head of Business Operations and works closely with Plant Operations, EHS, Manufacturing, and other departments. The position is full-time, salaried, exempt.

Demonstrated experience overseeing vendors and leading facilities-related projects
Familiarity with building systems (HVAC, electrical, compressed air) and multi-site operations
Strong organizational skills and comfort managing multiple priorities across sites
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; professional and approachable demeanor
Natural problem-solver who takes ownership and finds creative ways to get things done
Comfortable in a physically active, on-site role supporting a growing manufacturing environment
