Maintenance Manager/Reliability Engineer
Mar 10, 2026
- Maintenance and Reliability Leader with extensive experience improving equipment performance and operational stability across complex manufacturing environments, including FDA-regulated and cGMP facilities. His background spans reliability engineering, maintenance leadership, automation, and capital project execution across pharmaceutical, consumer goods, aerospace, medical device, and industrial manufacturing.
- What makes him particularly unique is the combination of hands-on engineering and maintenance leadership with strong business acumen. In addition to his technical background, he holds two MBAs in Corporate Finance and Strategic Management and has also launched his own product as an entrepreneur.
- Throughout his career, he has been trusted to build and scale maintenance and reliability systems across multiple sites, implementing processes that improve uptime, throughput, and long-term operational performance. He is known for being someone who can get things done quickly, effectively, and in ways that are repeatable and sustainable.
- His impact includes:
- Launching a greenfield reliability program in an FDA-regulated cGMP facility.
- Leading a multi-facility CMMS implementation (Fiix) and modernizing maintenance systems.
- Developing a nationally recognized skilled trades apprenticeship program with a community college and the U.S. Department of Labor.
- Driving a rapid turnaround that moved a site from last place regionally to #1 in North America within seven weeks.
- Delivering measurable improvements in scrap reduction, production output, and equipment reliability.
- Why now? His most recent employer lost a major contract, resulting in a large reduction in force that impacted his role.
- He is based in the Midwest and open to relocation, with a preference to remain in the region due to family considerations. He brings experience in cGMP environments, is currently pursuing his CMRP certification, and is immediately available. He is targeting Maintenance Manager, Reliability Engineer, or similar technical operations leadership roles.
