About the Position

We are looking for a dedicated individual to provide world‑class service at some of our commercial buildings in Mount Vernon on a limited part‑time basis. As a Flex Building Engineer, you will work alongside our Building Engineering team to provide support and back up coverage on an as‑needed basis. The Flex Engineer will train with our full‑time Building Engineer a few hours a month to stay current and familiar with the buildings and will act as back up coverage during vacations or possibly provide additional emergency support. As such, you will be responsible for maintaining the property’s physical condition and safeguarding it against damage, loss, and deterioration. The ideal candidate is proactive, self‑motivated, and versatile—a true jack of all trades. The ideal candidate will have a flexible schedule—perhaps a retired Engineer or someone who owns their own business. This position is perfect for someone looking for some additional hours per month but not tied to a set schedule.
