Job summary

Rango Inc. in Chandler, AZ is seeking a Maintenance Manager to own the performance, reliability, and lifecycle cost of a multi-site fleet of heavy equipment and light vehicles. You will lead maintenance leaders across an assigned region, set maintenance strategy, and ensure safety compliance.

The role builds a scalable operation, manages budgets and KPIs, develops teams, and partners with vendors to optimize cost per hour and equipment availability.

Qualifications

• Proven team building and leadership experience — a demonstrated track record of hiring, developing, and retaining maintenance teams, including leaders who report to you
• Minimum five (5) years of maintenance leadership experience, including supervision of maintenance supervisors or superintendents
• Demonstrated ownership of maintenance cost within a P&L: budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and cost per operating hour
• Demonstrated track record of improving equipment availability and reliability through a structured preventive maintenance program
• Previous experience managing heavy equipment and light vehicle maintenance across multiple sites or a large single operation
• Strong experience with maintenance software programs (CMMS), Excel, Word, and PowerPoint; HCSS Equipment360 (E360) preferred
• Experience with civil, mining equipment, and mass excavation (preferred)
• Working knowledge of MSHA/OSHA regulations and mine site safety programs
• Strong delegation, organizational, and written and verbal English communication skills with reports, peers, management, and clients
• Willingness to travel as needed, up to 75%

Responsibilities

• Own maintenance cost against the area P&L — build and forecast the budget, control spend, explain variances, and manage cost per operating hour, parts and inventory, outside repair, and labor spend
• Own equipment availability as a primary performance measure; set targets by fleet and asset class, monitor daily, and drive the corrective action required to hit them
• Develop and enforce a disciplined preventive maintenance program across plant, mobile equipment, and light vehicle fleets — PM schedules and intervals, planning and scheduling, backlog management, and PM compliance
• Track and report KPIs to area leadership and operations management: mechanical availability, utilization, MTBF, PM compliance, downtime, and cost per operating hour
• Manage the fleet across its lifecycle — acquisition input, utilization, rebuild vs. replace, and disposal — with total cost of ownership as the measure
• Build, lead, and develop high-performing maintenance teams: recruit, hire, coach, mentor, and retain superintendents and site maintenance leadership
• Manage vendor, dealer, and supplier relationships, including service agreements, warranty recovery, and negotiated parts and labor pricing
• Approve and prioritize purchase orders, maintenance work orders, and repair work within delegated authority, including all safety and work permits
• Standardize maintenance software use, work order discipline, and data quality across every site in the area, including newly mobilized operations
• Oversee labor planning, staffing levels, and employee time and attendance across the area's maintenance organization, and ensure compliance with all department policies, procedures, and safety rules
• Assure the safety of personnel through compliance with MSHA regulations; lead incident investigations, root cause analysis, and corrective action for maintenance-related events
• Coordinate communication and directives between the labor force, site leadership, company personnel, customers, and senior management
• Partner with area leadership and operations management on mobilization, demobilization, capital planning, and long-range fleet strategy
