About RenewCO2 RenewCO2 converts captured CO₂ into industrial chemicals — including potassium formate and formic acid — using electrochemical reduction. We operate a pilot-scale facility housing electrolyzer systems, analytical instrumentation, and supporting process equipment. The work is hands-on and the environment is resource-constrained: people here fix things, source things, and keep things running. The role The Facilities Maintenance Technician keeps the building, its systems, and the equipment our engineers and scientists depend on up and running. You’ll be the first call when a chiller trips, a contractor needs escorting, or a mass flow controller needs to go out for service. This is a hands-on role at a small company — you’ll handle routine upkeep and troubleshooting yourself, and bring in outside help for the rest. Responsibilities <ul><li>Building operations — Handle day-to-day upkeep of lab, pilot, and office space: lighting, plumbing, electrical, doors and access control, general repairs, space planning, and housekeeping standards.</li><li>HVAC and building systems — Maintain and troubleshoot HVAC, exhaust and ventilation systems, compressed air, process chilled water, and DI water systems. Monitor and operate the building management system (BMS), adjusting setpoints, schedules, and alarms, and responding to faults. Track filter changes, belt wear, and system performance; flag service needs before they turn into downtime.</li><li>Scientific and process equipment — Keep up the maintenance and calibration schedule for lab and pilot equipment (e.g., potentiostats, chromatographs, pumps, mass flow controllers, balances, fume hoods, gas delivery systems). Perform routine first-line maintenance and troubleshooting; coordinate outside service for what’s beyond that.</li><li>Contractor coordination — Get quotes, schedule and supervise trades (HVAC, electrical, plumbing, general construction), check work quality, and manage contractor site access and safety compliance.</li><li>Compliance and safety support — Support lab safety programs: chemical storage and segregation, gas cylinder handling and storage, eyewash and safety shower inspection, fire extinguisher and life-safety checks, waste pickup coordination, and inspection readiness.</li><li>Inventory and records — Keep up spare-parts and consumables inventory, equipment asset records, maintenance logs, and manuals, and track facilities-related spend.</li><li>Equipment installs and upgrades — Assist with equipment installations, utility tie-ins, and lab or pilot area reconfigurations alongside engineering staff.</li></ul> Required Qualifications <ul><li>1–3 years of experience in facilities, building maintenance, lab operations, or industrial/plant maintenance</li><li>Working knowledge of HVAC and building mechanical systems, with demonstrated hands-on troubleshooting ability</li><li>Familiarity with plumbing and low-voltage electrical work (controls wiring, sensors, lighting controls, access control, network and device cabling)</li><li>Willingness and aptitude to learn new building systems on the job — including the building management system (BMS/BAS), gas detection and alarm systems, and process utility controls.
