About this role

\n\n
€60,000 - €75,000 a year
We are seeking an experienced Maintenance Engineer with strong IBM Maximo/CMMS expertise to support asset lifecycle management, maintenance strategy development, and equipment reliability initiatives within a GMP-regulated environment. This position offers the opportunity to influence major capital projects from design and commissioning through to operational readiness and ongoing performance improvement.

This isn’t a maintenance role — it’s about building the foundation right from the start. You’ll influence design decisions, define maintenance strategies, and ensure systems are ready for operation before they even go live.

If you enjoy working at the intersection of engineering, reliability, and commissioning, this is a high-impact opportunity.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build asset structures and maintenance strategies in CMMS systems (SAP PM, Maximo, Infor EAM)
  • Define reliability and lifecycle strategies for new and existing equipment
  • Perform asset criticality assessments and lead/support FMEA/FMECA
  • Review engineering documentation (P&IDs, layouts, datasheets) to enable asset readiness
  • Support design reviews, 3D model reviews, and field walkdowns
  • Collaborate during commissioning, startup, and equipment trials
  • Ensure compliance with GMP and data integrity standards

What you will bring 

  • Engineering degree (Mechanical, Electrical, or similar)
  • 4–10+ years in asset management, reliability, or maintenance engineering (regulated industry)
  • Hands-on CMMS experience Maximo is highly desired 
  • Strong understanding of reliability engineering and lifecycle management
  • Experience with FMEA/FMECA and risk-based maintenance
  • Ability to interpret technical documentation (P&IDs, specs, layouts)
  • Knowledge of calibration and instrumentation in regulated environments
This is an excellent opportunity for a Maintenance Engineer who wants to combine engineering expertise with advanced asset management and Maximo administration experience. You'll work alongside project, commissioning, and operational teams to establish best-in-class maintenance and reliability practices for a major manufacturing facility.
