  • Manage rooftop units, air handlers, make-up air, heating, dock door heaters, dehumidification, and building automation
  • Control temperature and humidity across office, warehouse, dock, and production areas to support comfort, food safety, and condensation and ice control

Reliability, safety, and leadership

  • Build and run preventive and predictive maintenance programs in our CMMS, and lead root-cause analysis on failures
  • Respond to alarms and temperature excursions to protect product, 24/7
  • Champion a zero-incident safety culture, including lockout/tagout, line breaks, hot work, confined space, and fall protection
