Job Description - Maintenance Technician Team Lead - Warehouse Automation & Robotics

Exotec designs and delivers advanced automation solutions that help global brands optimise warehouse performance whilst supporting warehouse teams across at every level. Our organisation combines elegant mechanical design, resilient software and a deep understanding of logistics operations to solve our clients’ most complex challenges.

Working at Exotec means contributing to the systems used daily in warehouses. You'll collaborate with passionate colleagues who share knowledge, challenge ideas and work in a respectful environment that values the diversity of more than 1,000 ExoPeople around the world.

Here, your work moves from concept to production and into the hands of clients who rely on it each day. You’ll join a company where collaboration, excellence, and meaningful impact guide what's built next.


Role Summary

As a Maintenance Technician Team Leader, you’ll play a pivotal role in launching and shaping Exotec’s maintenance operations. As our first ever hire in Ireland, you'll be responsible for executing proven service delivery processes already established across the UK and Europe whilst adapting them to the needs of our client, a recognised food & beverage distributor.

This is a hands‑on role where you’ll split your time at our client's warehouse maintaining advanced automation systems and leading a small, growing team of technicians. It's a well-suited opportunity for an experienced maintenance technician ready to step into their first leadership role, or a more experienced leader and do-er, who thrives in evolving environments and is keen to influence how maintenance operations are delivered locally.

Responsibilities

  • Lead team of on-site Maintenance Technicians based at client warehouse location, inclusive of recruiting, onboarding, performance management and regular training & development 
  • Support Maintenance Technicians in their daily work by providing hands-on technical support as well as operational direction
  • Conduct, plan and ensure preventive maintenance tasks and other maintenance tasks are carried out on-time and on-schedule
  • Act as Exotec’s local representative for assigned warehouse location
  • Monitor system performance at client site, providing regular and timely data reports to internal and external stakeholders 
  • See that any escalations or system performance issues are resolved as soon as possible
  • Ensure material purchasing stays within budget
  • Manage any third-party schedules as appropriate, making sure mandatory equipment inspections are completed within scheduled timelines
  • Ensure Maintenance team members, external partners, contractors/vendors, warehouse operators and any site visitors are compliant with health, safety and environmental standards and protocol
  • Participate in continuous improvement projects 


We strongly encourage applications from candidates of all genders to help us build a truly inclusive environment. If you don’t meet every requirement listed below, don’t worry—your skills and experiences may still make you a great fit!

  • 3+ years of maintenance experience, ideally with 1+ year of being a senior maintenance team member or a recognised mentor/expert
  • Good general knowledge and competency in mechanical, electrical and software maintenance operations and engineering; if no robotics-specific experience, then at least a strong interest working on various robotics systems and machines
  • Any exposure to warehouse automation, industrial robotics, materials handling and/or logistics verticals would be highly beneficial
  • Strong client-facing mindset with the ability to build creditability and, as necessary, de-escalate and repair stakeholder relationships
  • Ability to work effectively and make business or leadership decisions autonomously
  • Any understanding of basic SQL queries would be a bonus
