About the Opportunity:
We're seeking a hands-on Facilities Maintenance Technician to support a modern pharmaceutical research and laboratory facility. This is a newer, well-maintained single-building environment with a broad range of mechanical and building systems. This is a strong opportunity for someone with HVAC, mechanical, facilities maintenance, or building automation experience who enjoys troubleshooting across multiple systems rather than specializing in one narrow trade.
Responsibilities:
- Maintain, inspect, troubleshoot, and repair HVAC systems, chillers, boilers, air handlers (AHUs), VAVs, pumps, motors, fans, and compressors.
- Perform preventive maintenance, including filter changes, belt adjustments, and lubrication.
- Conduct basic electrical troubleshooting using a voltmeter or multimeter to check power, fuses, motors, and components.
- Monitor building management/automation systems (BMS/BAS).
- Maintain DI water, reverse-osmosis (RO) filtration, and UV systems as needed.
- Document maintenance and repairs in a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
Qualifications:
- Hands-on experience in commercial facilities maintenance, HVAC, mechanical maintenance, or a related technical field.
- Strong mechanical troubleshooting skills and ability to diagnose equipment issues independently.
- Basic electrical troubleshooting skills and familiarity with a voltmeter or multimeter.
- Experience with commercial or industrial building equipment.
- Trade school or formal technical training may offset fewer years of experience.
Preferred:
- BMS/BAS or HVAC controls experience
- CMMS knowledge
- Pharmaceutical/Laboratory/Healthcare facility experience
- EPA certification
NOTE: Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents (Green Card holders) to be considered for this position.
