About The Position

As a Senior Facilities Engineer at Neros, you will own the technical performance, reliability, and long-term development of the infrastructure supporting our manufacturing, engineering, laboratory, and office environments. You will be responsible for critical building and process systems including electrical distribution, HVAC and exhaust, compressed air, process gases, plumbing, cleanrooms, laboratories, and other utilities required to support manufacturing operations. You will work closely with Manufacturing and Engineering teams to evaluate new equipment requirements, understand infrastructure capacity, and develop solutions that allow the factory to scale. This role also owns long-term infrastructure planning, preventative maintenance strategy, facility system documentation, and the site Master Layout and as-built CAD. The ideal candidate is highly technical, field-oriented, and comfortable taking ownership of infrastructure problems from initial diagnosis through implementation.
