As a Building Engineer 1, you'll help keep our facility, equipment, and grounds running safely and reliably. You'll work alongside the Facilities Manager to maintain the physical plant, production equipment, and building systems that our manufacturing and lab teams depend on every day. This is a hands-on role for someone who likes variety — one day you might be troubleshooting a PLC-controlled system, the next repairing HVAC components or assisting with a new equipment installation.

Responsibilities

• Maintain and repair physical plant machinery, heating and cooling systems, piping, and electrical systems, and document maintenance performed

• Perform periodic checks on the production water system and HVAC filters, and flag issues to the Facilities Manager

Requirements

• High school diploma or equivalent

• Exposure to programmable logic controllers (PLCs)
• Knowledge of AC/DC circuits, motors, gearboxes, and pneumatic/hydraulic systems
• Experience with building automation systems (BAS) — HVAC controls, building management/monitoring platforms, or similar automated facility systems — is a strong plus
• Willingness and availability to be on-call
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, dependability, and the ability to stay organized and meet deadlines

Work Environment

This role includes both indoor and outdoor work, exposure to varying weather and occasional cold temperatures, and proximity to moving mechanical parts, electrical current, and elevated work areas. Reasonable accommodations are available to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of the role. Physical demands include exerting up to 50 lbs of force occasionally and up to 20 lbs frequently, along with standing, walking, lifting, and reaching throughout the shift.
