This range is a good-faith estimate based on factors such as relevant skills, experience, education, training, geographic location and other considerations permitted by law. An employee's pay history will not be a contributing factor where prohibited by local law. Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis unless a deadline is otherwise stated.

Responsibilities:

• Preventative maintenance

• Each piece of factory equipment has a weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual preventative maintenance plan that you'll oversee so that we have minimal downtime and it's easy for our chocolate makers to reach their goals and improve our chocolate quality each year.

• The preventative maintenance includes lubrication, cleaning filters, replacing parts, tuning the tension on belts, and ordering replacement parts as necessary.

• Complete the preventative maintenance plan according to the calendar and where the plan is out of date or doesn?t make sense, improve the plan so that our preventative maintenance program is a strategic part of our operations.

• Complete an end of the day report with notes for the Chocolate Production team so they understand how the machine was maintained.

• Leave each workspace sanitized and ready for the next day's production.

• We will be tracking factory uptime as well as number of days between incidents and when preventative maintenance is at its best, we hope to see both of these metrics improve each year. Weights and calibration

• Check and calibrate our temperature, scales, and sensors to ensure they are accurate and maintain a monthly log that will be reviewed in future FDA inspections.

• Machine maintenance -- Work with tried-and-true chocolate-making equipment as well as finicky Italian tempering machines, a restored vintage wrapping machine, and ad hoc R&D prototypes so our teams consistently beat their monthly production goals while being proud of their craft.

• Make tricky calls on the fly ,when is a temporary fix necessary (though rarely ideal!) to meet important goals. When do we buy a new machine rather than continuously make repairs. When this role is going well, there are few surprises, and you help maintain a sense of calm, stability, and positivity across the factory floor.

• Parts management -You will be responsible for ordering new parts, making note of shipping expenses (e.g. don?t order distilled water from McMaster-Carr for $150 when you get it at Safeway for $2). When parts arrive, make sure that they are logged in MaintainX and any extras are easy to find for the future. In critical situations, call shops around San Francisco (Home Depot, Electrical Supply shop, etc) to see if we can find a part in a few hours rather than relying upon Safety and food safety --

• Oversee lock out /tag out procedures and machine inspection lists, use a forklift safely (training will be provided), assist with SOPs, perform repairs with factory safety and sanitation in mind, and work on risk mitigation projects.

• Long-term projects -- Develop a system for addressing longer-term projects that might not get attention otherwise so that approximately 15% of your day-to-day is working towards future-thinking projects.

  Qualifications:

• Schedule Our Production team makes chocolate in one shift Monday through Friday. The team has two huddles at 8am and 3pm each day.

• We?ve found that it?s convenient to have hours either earlier or later than the team though some overlap is helpful to talk with the Chocolate Maker 1-1. While the schedule is flexible, we ask that you attend one of the huddles each day (either morning or afternoon) so you can get a firsthand report of how the factory is running.

• Machine know-how -- You can diagnose electrical issues with a multimeter, know how to read a machine spec, and . Extraordinary technical background with technical certification and prior experience working with machines and shop equipment.

• Critical thinking -- Extraordinary problem-solving skills. You componentize problems to address issues more readily and use rigorous logic methods to challenge your initial instincts and hypotheses.

• Physical strength -- This role requires lifting 50 lbs or more to service equipment using appropriate PPE and forklifts when necessary. Some repairs may require maintaining an awkward position for prolonged periods or using 8-12 foot ladders.

• Communication -- Strong communication skills. You can break down a complex issue into plainspoken English that can be easily understood by anyone in the organization.

• Tech skills -- Your office skills will require Google Spreadsheets, Google Docs, and MaintainX to maintain maintenance logs, review blueprints & schematics, send emails to vendors, and to keep documents easily accessible and up-to-date. Your documentation will require taking pictures and uploading them into Google Docs or MaintainX for logging.
