Job Summary

• Bio Legend is seeking a highly hands-on, “wrench-turning” Facilities Engineer
• Physical Security & Controls to support a multi-building laboratory and office campus. This role is deeply involved in the physical installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of systems—not just design or oversight.

This role is responsible for designing, installing, and maintaining physical security systems (CCTV, access control, alarms), low-voltage infrastructure, and facility control systems, while also supporting lab equipment, automation initiatives, and site-wide technical projects.

This is not a desk-based engineering role. The position spends significant time in labs, ceilings, server rooms, and equipment spaces—installing hardware, running cabling, troubleshooting issues in real time, and keeping systems operational.

The ideal candidate is a self-starter with strong troubleshooting skills across electrical, mechanical, and control systems, capable of managing vendors, coordinating cross-functional teams, and maintaining detailed documentation in regulated environments (ISO/GMP). This position plays a key role in maintaining operational continuity, supporting audits, and driving continuous improvement across facilities and technical systems.

• Coordinate vendors, manage parts inventories, and maintain administrative records, including frequent updates to vital equipment monitoring system notification lists for each lab.
• Coordinate security officers, review nightly reports, and make corrective actions.
• Support electro-mechanical equipment and automation initiatives, building toward maintenance and repair expertise of a state-of-the-art automated order fulfillment system.
• Work with original equipment manufacturer technicians (vendors) for specialized repairs and upgrades across all supported technical systems
• Quality Management System Compliance: Ensure all maintenance activities, system modifications, and operational procedures adhere to ISO standards, GMP requirements, safety procedures, and internal quality protocols; Maintain proper documentation for audits and validation and conduct non-conformance investigations
• Provide hands-on support for lab equipment installation, validation, troubleshooting, and repair; Coordinate with contractors and vendors for campus improvements and expansions, and for ongoing maintenance and repairs (e.g. HVAC, fire safety systems)

• Perform as project manager for various Facilities and Operations related technical projects
