​​About the Role:

We are seeking an experienced Principal Facilities Engineer to support critical facility and utility systems at our New Albany, Ohio site, a regulated pharmacy/manufacturing facility operating under cGMP requirements. This role requires hands-on engineering expertise across HVAC, electrical, compressed air, purified water, and building automation systems, with a deep understanding of GMP compliance, equipment qualification, and facility reliability. The ideal candidate will serve as the on-site engineering authority during the Wednesday–Sunday shift, working hand-in-hand with the Maintenance team as the engineering point of contact whenever an issue arises.

You Will:

Facility & Critical Utility Systems Engineering

• Serve as the on-site engineering lead for facility systems (HVAC, electrical distribution, compressed air, purified/RO water, EMS, BMS/BAS, generators, fire/life safety) during the Wed–Sun shift.

• Review and redline design drawings, P&IDs, and specifications for new construction, renovation, and equipment installation projects to ensure code compliance, GMP suitability, and operational fit.

• Engage with HVAC design during construction, evaluating equipment specifications and system selection to confirm the right systems are chosen and correctly installed against the facility's URS and regulated environment requirements.

• Apply psychrometric analysis specific to the region's climate to validate HVAC system design, capacity, and performance.

• Develop and maintain utility system design standards and basis-of-design documentation for the site.

• Engage with vendors on existing equipment to optimize settings, evaluate upgrade opportunities, and improve system reliability.

Installation, Commissioning & Compliance

• Provide on-site technical oversight during installation of facility and utility systems, serving as the point of contact between Hims & Hers and external vendors/contractors.

• Lead or support commissioning and qualification activities (IQ/OQ/PQ) for critical equipment and utility systems in the regulated environment.

• Manage acceptance testing, punch list closeout, and system turnover to operations for construction and capital projects.

• Ensure facility equipment and utility systems remain qualified and compliant with cGMP, FDA 21 CFR Part 210/211, and applicable state and local regulations.

• Ensure preventive maintenance contracts are in place for all facility equipment/utilities with appropriate SLAs and emergency dispatching protocols; Maintenance coordinates the resulting PMs and related CMMS work orders.

Reliability, Maintenance Partnership & Issue Response

• Coach and support Maintenance Technicians on shift for system upkeep, preventive maintenance execution, and downtime/excursion remediation.

• Lead root cause investigations for equipment failures or excursions affecting GMP-relevant systems; partner with Quality on CAPAs and change controls.

• Manage change control processes for modifications to critical facility/utility systems, including impact assessments and requalification needs.

• Respond to critical alarms and emergency events (HVAC excursions, environmental excursions, power loss, water system failures) during shift hours and off-hours, escalating and documenting appropriately.

Documentation, Safety & Regulatory Compliance

• Maintain accurate documentation: SOPs, work instructions, as-built records, validation records, and regulatory files.

• Ensure ongoing compliance with OSHA, EPA, NFPA, and local building/fire codes.

• Participate in EHS programs and support internal audits and regulatory inspections as a technical resource for facility and utility systems.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Capital Projects

• Manage relationships with contractors and vendors for specialized maintenance, calibration, and capital project work.

• Support capital improvement and equipment installation projects — scoping, contractor coordination, and commissioning.

• Work cross-functionally with Operations, Maintenance, Quality, and Validation teams to align facility and utility performance with operational needs.

You Have:

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field; equivalent hands-on experience considered in lieu of a degree.

• 8-10 years of facilities engineering experience, including at least 7+ years in a GMP-regulated pharmaceutical, biotech, or manufacturing environment.

• Working knowledge of cGMP, FDA 21 CFR Part 210/211, and validation lifecycle documentation (IQ/OQ/PQ).

• Hands-on experience with critical building systems: HVAC (including cleanroom/controlled environments), electrical distribution, compressed air, purified water/WFI systems, environmental monitoring systems (EMS), and building automation (BMS) platforms.

• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, P&IDs, equipment specifications, and design documents.

• Experience coordinating with Maintenance teams on PM program execution and/or managing contractors.

• Strong troubleshooting skills and the ability to respond calmly and effectively to facility emergencies.

• CMMS familiarity (e.g., Maximo, UpKeep, MaintainX) preferred.

• Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint); familiarity with CAD tools (AutoCAD or equivalent) is a plus.

• PE licensure is not required.

• Must be able to work the scheduled shift — Wednesday–Sunday, 2:00 PM – 10:00 PM — with flexibility for on-call/emergency response outside scheduled hours (regular hours can adjust/shift when responding to on-call/emergency situations).

• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs, stand/walk for extended periods, work in mechanical rooms and at heights (ladders/lifts), and wear required PPE in varying temperatures, noise levels, and controlled/cleanroom environments.
