The Role

The Maintenance & Facilities Supervisor owns the reliability of Red Dot's production equipment and the condition of the entire Puyallup facility. This person keeps the plant running — minimizing unplanned downtime, driving preventive maintenance discipline, and responding fast when equipment fails — while maintaining a safe, clean, well-functioning building and grounds.

This is a hands-on leadership role for a self-starter who works independently. They set the maintenance schedule, lead the technicians, manage outside vendors and service contracts, and are directly accountable for the metrics that define a healthy maintenance function: equipment uptime, PM compliance, downtime, and maintenance-related safety. Success in this role means production rarely stops for equipment, PMs happen on schedule, and the facility is a safe and professional place to work — day in and day out.

This is an on-call role. The Maintenance & Facilities Supervisor is the primary escalation point for equipment and facility emergencies across both 1st and 2nd shift, and must be reachable and willing to respond outside scheduled hours — including nights and weekends — when a line is down or the building is at risk. This expectation is a core condition of the role, not an occasional exception.

• Ensure maintenance and facilities work complies with OSHA / Washington L&I requirements
• Lead incident response, root cause, and corrective action for equipment- and facility-related safety events

Continuous Improvement

• Drive Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), autonomous maintenance, and 6S within the maintenance shop and across equipment
• Partner with Manufacturing Engineering on reliability improvements, equipment upgrades, and new equipment installs
• Use data — downtime, scrap tied to equipment, OEE availability — to identify and prioritize the highest-impact improvements

Cross-Functional & Cost

• Manage the maintenance and facilities budget and MRO spend; find cost savings without compromising reliability or safety
• Support capital projects and equipment installations in partnership with the GM, Manufacturing Engineering, and Finance.

Requirements

Education

Associate's degree or technical/trade certification in industrial maintenance, mechatronics, electrical, or a related field — or equivalent demonstrated experience (e.g., completed apprenticeship or journeyman-level trade experience).

Experience

• Minimum 5 years of industrial/manufacturing maintenance experience, including at least 2 years supervising or leading a maintenance team
• Proven self-starter who works independently, sets their own priorities, and drives work to completion with minimal direction
• Hands-on troubleshooting across mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems, including PLC-controlled equipment
• Demonstrated industrial equipment cleaning and servicing experience
• Working knowledge of building and facilities systems (electrical, plumbing, compressed air, HVAC)
• Experience building and running a preventive maintenance program and using a CMMS to schedule and track work
• Experience managing across multiple shifts and coordinating outside vendors and service contracts
• Willing and able to be on-call and to respond to after-hours and weekend equipment and facility emergencies across both shifts
• Functional knowledge of Microsoft tools (Outlook, Excel, Word)
• Comfort with ambiguity, competing priorities, and a fast-paced manufacturing environment

Key Responsibilities

Equipment Reliability & Uptime

• Own equipment uptime across the plant — minimize unplanned downtime and protect production and customer commitments
• Build, schedule, and enforce a preventive maintenance (PM) program across all production equipment; drive PM compliance and schedule adherence
• Respond rapidly to breakdowns; lead root cause investigation and permanent corrective action so failures don't repeat
• Own KPIs for equipment downtime tied to production, along with PM compliance, mean time between failures (MTBF), mean time to repair (MTTR), and maintenance response time; report and drive improvement against targets
• Manage spare parts and MRO inventory, including identifying and stocking critical spares for high-risk equipment

Shift Coverage & Emergency Response

• Serve as the primary escalation point for equipment breakdowns and facility emergencies across both 1st and 2nd shift
• Maintain on-call availability outside scheduled hours — including nights and weekends — and respond promptly when production is down or the facility is at risk
• Establish and own a clear escalation and coverage plan so every shift knows who to call and emergency response never depends on a single person being reachable
• Ensure maintenance coverage is scheduled across both shifts and proactively fill gaps before they leave a shift exposed

Facilities Management

• Own the condition of the entire facility — building systems (electrical, plumbing, compressed air, lighting, roofing, dock equipment), grounds, and general upkeep
• Perform and oversee industrial equipment cleaning and servicing to keep machinery running
• Manage service contracts and vendors — janitorial, waste, pest, landscaping, fire suppression, and specialized building trades — and hold them accountable
• Ensure facility building systems stay in regulatory compliance (fire/life safety, boilers/pressure vessels, and similar inspected systems)

People Leadership

• Lead, schedule, and develop the maintenance technicians across both shifts; ensure coverage and clear on-call expectations
• Build technician bench strength through cross-training and skills development
• Set the standard for accountability, safety, and professionalism within the maintenance and facilities team

Safety & Compliance

• Own safety for the maintenance function — lockout/tagout (LOTO), arc flash, confined 

Physical Requirements

• This role requires regular hands-on presence on the production floor and throughout the facility across both shifts. Must be able to stand and walk for extended periods; bend, kneel, climb ladders, and work at heights; enter confined spaces; occasionally lift up to 50 pounds; and work in a manufacturing environment that includes noise, varying temperatures, moving equipment, and exposure to production and maintenance hazards while wearing required PPE. Reasonable accommodation will be made in accordance with applicable law.
