Description
Job Description Summary
The Maintenance & Logistics Planner will be part of BioMADE’s Hayward Pilot Plant Operations team. This pilot plant will help bridge a gap in the domestic non-pharmaceutical biotechnology industry by providing clients developing emerging fermentation technologies the ability to demonstrate upstream and downstream processes at a scale that supports future commercial-scale design and production.
The Maintenance & Logistics Planner is responsible for translating preventive and corrective maintenance programs established by BioMADE’s Pilot Plant Network Reliability Team Lead into executable daily and weekly work. Working under the direction of the Reliability Team Lead and in coordination with on-site Pilot Plant Operations leadership, this role plans, schedules, coordinates, documents, and supports the execution of maintenance activities through the computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
As part of a lean pilot plant team, this is a hands-on role. In addition to planning maintenance work, the Maintenance & Logistics Planner is expected to assist the Maintenance Technicians, Pilot Plant Operators, contractors, and others with routine preventive and corrective maintenance, basic troubleshooting, and equipment repairs as appropriate based on training and capability. As the facility is currently under construction, the initial priorities of the position will be to configure the facility’s assets in the CMMS and support commissioning and startup of the facility.
The role also supports overall facility maintenance, vendor coordination, logistics, and inventory management, including maintaining accurate NetSuite records for maintenance spare parts, raw materials, consumables, customer materials, finished products, and other pilot plant inventory.
This individual must be highly organized, mechanically inclined, adaptable, and willing to support a broad range of maintenance, facilities, logistics, and operational activities as site needs evolve.
Key Responsibilities
Maintenance Planning, Coordination & Execution
- Plan and schedule preventive, corrective, calibration, inspection, and other maintenance activities through the CMMS.
- Coordinate maintenance priorities and schedules with the Reliability Team Leader, Maintenance Technicians, Operations, external contractors and other stakeholders to minimize equipment downtime and disruption to pilot plant activities.
- Review maintenance requests and conduct field walkdowns as needed to understand work scope and equipment conditions.
- Develop complete work plans identifying required labor, time, parts, tools, materials, technical documentation, vendor support, permits, and safety requirements before work begins.
- Review open work orders and maintenance backlog, follow up on delayed work, identify duplicate or obsolete work orders, and communicate equipment and work status.
- Group related maintenance activities where practical to optimize use of labor, equipment downtime, vendors, tools, and other resources.
- Perform or assist with routine preventive and corrective maintenance and basic equipment troubleshooting based on training and capability. Activities may include lubrication, inspection, adjustment, replacement of gaskets, O-rings, filters, or other common wear components, routine calibration, and similar equipment-maintenance tasks.
- Assist with equipment breakdowns and repairs alongside the Maintenance Technician, Pilot Plant Operators, equipment vendors, contractors, or Engineering as appropriate.
- Recognize when work requires specialized expertise and coordinate escalation to the appropriate internal or external resource.
CMMS & Maintenance Documentation
- Maintain accurate work-order status, completion details, parts usage, findings, and equipment history in the CMMS.
- Support upkeep of asset records, preventive maintenance tasks, manuals, drawings, vendor information, and spare-parts associations.
- Use maintenance history, recurring issues, and feedback from technicians, operators, and vendors to improve maintenance plans.
- Identify overdue work, recurring equipment problems, and opportunities to improve maintenance planning and execution.
Facility Maintenance & Vendor Coordination
- Coordinate routine facility maintenance such as HVAC, lighting, pest control, building systems, repairs, and inspections.
- Perform or assist with basic facility-maintenance tasks when appropriate based on training, capability, and safety requirements.
- Coordinate qualified vendors and specialized trades for maintenance and repair work, including scope development, RFQ/RFP support, vendor selection, site visits, quote comparison, procurement, scheduling, site access, safety compliance, and stakeholder communication.
- Track recurring services, repairs, inspections, and follow-up activities through completion.
Inventory & Logistics
- Maintain accurate NetSuite inventory records for spare parts, raw materials, pilot plant consumables, and other materials tracked in NetSuite.
- Record receipts, transfers, usage, returns, and adjustments; perform cycle counts and reconciliations; and investigate discrepancies.
- Monitor inventory levels and coordinate replenishment of critical spare parts, consumables, and operating supplies.
- Ensure required parts and materials are available for planned maintenance work.
- Support receiving, labeling, storage, staging, internal movement, and shipment of materials.
Safety & Cross-Functional Support
- Ensure maintenance and facility work is planned for safe execution, including applicable LOTO, confined-space requirements, JSAs, permits, PPE, and site controls.
- Follow applicable safety procedures and stop work when unsafe conditions or behaviors are identified.
- Be flexible to support additional maintenance, logistics, facilities, and operational activities as site needs evolve.
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
Required
- Associate degree in a technical, maintenance, supply chain, or operations-related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience
- At least 5 years of experience in maintenance planning, industrial maintenance, inventory management, logistics, or a related role
- Experience using a CMMS, ERP, inventory system, or similar operational software
- Strong organizational, documentation, communication, and follow-through skills
- Strong safety mindset and ability to work effectively in a hands-on, cross-functional environment
Preferred
- Experience in biotech, pharmaceutical, food, chemical, industrial manufacturing, or pilot plant operations
- Experience with NetSuite or a comparable ERP system
- Experience with spare-parts management, cycle counting, shipping, receiving, or warehouse operations
- Experience supporting facility startup, commissioning, or transition to operations

Tips for Your Logistics Planner Job Search
Quantify your planning impact clearly
Hiring managers for logistics planner roles want to see numbers behind your work. Translate your experience into metrics like inventory accuracy rates, lead time reductions, or on-time delivery improvements. Vague phrases like 'improved operations' will not move you through screening.
List your planning tools by name
Applicant tracking systems filter resumes for specific software. Name every tool you have used, including SAP, Oracle TMS, Manhattan Associates, Blue Yonder, or even advanced Excel and Power BI. Generic phrases like 'ERP systems' get filtered out before a human reads your resume.
Target openings that match your supply chain niche
Logistics planner roles vary significantly by function. Demand planners, transportation planners, and distribution planners have different day-to-day responsibilities. Read each job description carefully and apply only to postings where your specific background aligns, rather than sending the same resume everywhere.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists logistics planner openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare for scenario-based case questions
Logistics planner interviews often include case questions about disruption scenarios, such as a port delay or supplier shortage. Practice walking through how you would reprioritize inventory, communicate with stakeholders, and adjust forecasts in real time. Generic interview prep will not cover this depth.
Negotiate beyond base pay in offer discussions
Logistics planner offers frequently include sign-on bonuses, relocation packages, or performance incentives tied to supply chain KPIs. Once you have a written offer, ask specifically about those components before accepting. Waiting until after you accept to ask is too late.
Logistics Planner Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most logistics planners?
The companies hiring the most logistics planners right now include DHL, MANTECH, and Lukos, with the largest share of openings in Florida, Hawaii, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Hiring volume shifts with seasonal demand cycles, so checking back regularly gives you the most accurate picture.
How many logistics planner jobs are remote?
About 33% of logistics planner openings are fully remote or hybrid as of September 2026, which is lower than many office-based roles because the work often involves coordination with warehouse teams and physical distribution sites. Demand planning and transportation planning sub-roles tend to have the highest share of remote-eligible positions within the logistics planner category.
How do you become a logistics planner?
Most logistics planners start with a bachelor's degree in supply chain management, business, or industrial engineering, then gain hands-on experience in operations, procurement, or inventory control roles. Earning an APICS certification such as the CPIM strengthens your candidacy significantly. From there, building proficiency in ERP platforms like SAP or Oracle and demonstrating measurable outcomes in your work history moves you into dedicated planning roles.
Can I get a logistics planner job with little experience?
You can break into logistics planning with limited direct experience by starting in adjacent roles like logistics coordinator, purchasing assistant, or warehouse supervisor, where you gain exposure to inventory flow and supply chain systems. Internships with manufacturers or third-party logistics providers are another direct entry point. Pairing that hands-on background with an APICS CPIM certification makes you a much stronger candidate for junior planning positions.
What does the logistics planner interview process look like?
Most logistics planner hiring processes include an initial phone screen focused on your background and software experience, followed by a skills-based interview where you walk through how you have handled planning scenarios like demand spikes or supplier disruptions. A final round often includes a case exercise or a panel interview with supply chain, operations, and procurement stakeholders. Some employers also include a practical assessment in a planning or data analysis tool.
Where can I find and apply to logistics planner jobs?
You can find and apply to logistics planner jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Find roles that match your background and apply directly to each listing without leaving the platform.
