Full Job Description

Company Overview

A privately held, family-owned wood products manufacturer with approximately 225 employees across all functions. The business operates a primary manufacturing facility, a smaller secondary production facility with approximately 125 employees in production.

Job Overview

This is a high-impact leadership role created to own the full maintenance and reliability function across all facilities and equipment. The right person will transform a currently reactive maintenance culture into a planned, predictive, and accountable one by reducing unplanned downtime, extending asset life, and freeing executive leadership to focus on strategic growth.

We are seeking a dynamic and experienced Senior Manager of Maintenance & Engineering to lead our maintenance operations and engineering initiatives. This pivotal role involves overseeing all facets of industrial maintenance, facilities management, and engineering projects to ensure optimal equipment performance, safety, and efficiency across our manufacturing facilities. The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong leadership, technical expertise, and a proactive approach to continuous improvement.

Responsibilities

Technical Leadership & Problem Solving

Serve as the technical authority on complex electrical, PLC, mechanical & boiler maintenance issues across all production equipment
Lead or facilitate root cause analysis (RCA) on critical failures — do not accept symptom-level explanations
Develop technical standards, repair specifications, and approved methods for recurring failure modes
Evaluate and challenge findings presented by technicians; distinguish between thorough diagnosis and convenient narratives
Oversee or participate in major repairs, retrofits, and equipment modifications
Maintain a free incident work environment among maintenance technicians

Planning, Systems & CMMS

Own the CMMS platform end-to-end: data integrity, PM scheduling, work order discipline, parts inventory management
Build and enforce a preventive and predictive maintenance program across all assets
Drive the Maintenance Planner to full effectiveness — establish authority, accountability, and organizational follow-through
Create scheduling cadences that reduce reactive firefighting and increase planned work ratios
Establish and report on leading and lagging maintenance KPIs (OEE, planned vs. reactive ratio)
Prioritize critical asset repairs, critical spare parts identification and effective follow up

Team Development & Accountability

Lead, coach, and develop the Maintenance Manager, Maintenance Planner, and skilled technicians. Interview & hire new technicians as necessary.
Establish clear performance expectations, accountability structures, and skill development plans
Address the leadership gap in the Maintenance Manager role through direct coaching and structured delegation
Build a culture where problems surface early, root causes are pursued, and results are owned
Oversee & support the smaller secondary manufacturing facility, and the heavy equipment and truck shop team (1 technician + helper)
Efficient management of the maintenance staff overtime

Capital & Asset Strategy

Lead the development of a multi-year capital plan for aging and critical equipment
Provide technical justification for repair vs. replace decisions
Partner with the Plant Manager on production capacity and up-time requirements
Manage maintenance and CapEx budgets with full accountability for outcomes

Required Skills

Proven management experience leading maintenance or engineering teams within manufacturing or industrial environments; Proven track record developing frontline maintenance leaders and technicians, not just managing.
Strong mechanical knowledge with the ability to read schematics and technical diagrams.
Extensive experience with programmable logic controllers (PLCs), CMMS software, and industrial automation systems.
Skilled in supervising complex projects from planning through execution with excellent project management capabilities.
Fluency in English with effective communication skills for team leadership and cross-department collaboration.
Demonstrated supervisory experience with a focus on safety protocols, troubleshooting electrical/mechanical issues, and implementing maintenance strategies. Join us as we continue to innovate in veneer manufacturing by maintaining top-tier equipment performance through expert leadership in maintenance & engineering!
Hands-on background in industrial electrical and/or PLC troubleshooting — you can read a ladder diagram, trace a fault, and challenge a technician's diagnosis with your own informed questions
Mechanical engineering intuition: ability to evaluate critical tolerances, failure mechanisms, and repair specifications on industrial machinery
Demonstrated experience leading a strong maintenance culture or transformation: taking a reactive maintenance culture to a planned/predictive model
Experience building or rebuilding a PM/CMMS program from the ground up.

Strongly Preferred

Background in wood products, paper mill, or heavy industrial & continuous process manufacturing
Formal reliability engineering training or certification (CMRP, CRE, or equivalent)
Capital project management experience, and budgeting.
Someone hands on and can handle a breakdown as well as work side by side with other maintenance team members.

Pay: From $125,000.00 per year

Benefits:

401(k)
Dental insurance
Health insurance
Life insurance
Paid time off
Vision insurance

Experience:

Industrial maintenance: 3 years (Preferred)
Maintenance management: 3 years (Preferred)
CMMS: 2 years (Preferred)
Programmable logic controllers: 3 years (Preferred)

Work Location: In person
