About The Position

The Senior Facilities Maintenance Technician performs advanced maintenance and repair work across Master’s Transportation’s 40-acre Kansas City headquarters campus, including office, manufacturing, and automotive service facilities. The technician independently handles complex assignments, supports general maintenance technicians, monitors building mechanical controls, and determines when work requires a licensed trade or qualified vendor. The role performs troubleshooting, repairs, and preventive maintenance across building systems and campus areas; handles minor repairs within training and authorized scope; and uses diagnostic tools, manuals, schematics, and service history to investigate issues. The technician completes work orders and records, coordinates contractors and service work, maintains tools and work areas, and helps keep operations safe and running smoothly. The position also supports urgent facility responses, grounds upkeep, snow and ice removal, moves, clean-up, and event set-up. This is a hands-on role throughout office, manufacturing, automotive service, mechanical, storage, and outdoor environments. Work may involve noise, dust, grease, temperature changes, vehicle and equipment traffic, weather exposure, uneven surfaces, ladders, lifts, confined spaces, and proximity to energized or moving equipment. Required PPE varies by task and may include safety glasses, hearing protection, safety-toe slip-resistant footwear, gloves, fall protection, and respiratory protection. Occasional travel in a company vehicle to other, nonlocal company locations may be required, generally a few times per year. The position is full-time, non-exempt/hourly, based at the Kansas City headquarters, and reports to the Director of Facilities. The schedule is Monday through Friday during daytime hours, with occasional after-hours or weekend response based on facility needs. The role has no formal supervisory responsibilities, though it may provide task guidance to other maintenance technicians.
