About The Position

Egis is seeking a Maintenance and Facility Manager for its Sacramento, California office to work on the California High-Speed Rail (HSR) project. The position is based in Sacramento; candidates outside the local area will need to relocate. The manager serves as a subject matter expert for the California HSR Authority and is responsible for initially defining maintenance requirements. The role establishes and maintains asset-management policies and routines, including asset inventory and criticality classification, preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance programs, and inspection and condition-monitoring plans with thresholds and escalation rules. It also specifies associated support facilities at the end of the design phase and supports designers through the start of construction. Support facilities include Maintenance of Way Facilities for HSR infrastructure, heavy and light rolling-stock maintenance facilities, the Operations Control Center, and railheads supporting HSR line construction. The role directly oversees a rolling-stock expert and manages, on a matrix basis, discipline experts in track, catenary, signaling, telecommunications, and operations, as well as future designers.
