Guided by our core values—agility, expertise, and trust—we foster a collaborative and forward-thinking work environment.  At M.C. Dean, we are committed to building the next generation of technical leaders in electrical, engineering, and cybersecurity industries.  The Director of Facilities is a senior operational leadership role responsible for the end-to-end management, maintenance, capital improvement, and strategic planning of Modular Mission Critical's 1.8 million square foot manufacturing and warehousing campus in Ruther Glen, Virginia. This is a high-visibility, high-impact position that sits at the intersection of facilities operations, infrastructure engineering, energy management, and campus growth planning. As the campus continues to expand — bringing new buildings online, scaling power infrastructure, increasing water and utility demand, and accommodating heavier electrical loads in support of production growth — the Director of Facilities will be the senior leader responsible for ensuring the physical infrastructure keeps pace. You will manage a skilled facilities team, partner with operations and engineering leadership, lead capital project execution, and interface with utilities, regulators, contractors, and county officials to ensure the campus operates safely, efficiently, and in full compliance. This is the right role for a seasoned facilities leader who is comfortable in a large-scale, high-voltage, industrial manufacturing environment — and who thrives when building something, not just maintaining it. Responsibilities Campus Facilities Operations & Management • Direct the day-to-day maintenance, repair, and operational readiness of all facilities assets across 1.8M+ square feet of manufacturing and warehousing space on the 585-acre Ruther Glen campus. • Oversee all building systems including HVAC, plumbing, electrical distribution, lighting, compressed air, fire protection/suppression, building automation systems (BAS), and structural infrastructure. • Lead, schedule, and develop a team of facilities technicians, maintenance mechanics, electricians, and contracted service providers — managing staffing levels, shift coverage, work order systems, and performance. • Establish and maintain a rigorous preventive maintenance program across all facilities assets, minimizing unplanned downtime and extending equipment lifecycles. • Serve as the primary escalation point for all facilities-related issues affecting manufacturing operations, ensuring rapid response and minimal production impact. • Maintain all facilities documentation: as-builts, equipment records, inspection logs, warranties, service contracts, and regulatory filings. Power Infrastructure & High-Voltage Electrical Systems • Oversee the campus electrical infrastructure, including high-voltage service entrance equipment, mediumvoltage distribution, transformer stations, switchgear lineups, substations, and low-voltage panel distribution across all buildings. • Manage ongoing power capacity planning as the campus grows — coordinating with Dominion Energy and other utility providers on service upgrades, demand management, and new service connections to support production expansion. • Lead the facilities team and contracted electrical engineers in the design, procurement, and commissioning of electrical infrastructure upgrades driven by new building construction and increased manufacturing load requirements. • Develop and enforce electrical safety programs consistent with NFPA 70E, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.333, and MMC's ISO 45001:2018 safety management system. • Implement and manage an arc flash program, lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures, and electrical work permitting system across all campus facilities. • Monitor and optimize power quality, demand metering, and load balancing across the campus distribution network — identifying opportunities to reduce peak demand charges and improve power factor. Water Systems, Utilities & Environmental Compliance • Manage all campus water systems — including municipal water service, domestic plumbing, fire suppression water supply, cooling tower makeup water, industrial process water, and stormwater infrastructure. • Oversee wastewater management, storm drainage, and on-site retention systems, ensuring full compliance with Virginia DEQ and EPA regulations. • Partner with environmental health & safety (EHS) to maintain all environmental permits, including VPDES stormwater discharge, air quality registrations, and SPCC plans as applicable. • Lead water conservation and sustainability initiatives consistent with Modular Mission Critical's focus on reducing environmental impact, including water recycling, fixture efficiency upgrades, and leak detection programs. • Coordinate utility budgeting, invoice validation, and consumption reporting for electricity, natural gas, water/sewer, and waste removal across the campus. Capital Projects & Campus Expansion Planning • Serve as the facilities owner's representative for all capital construction and infrastructure projects on campus — from new building additions and facility upgrades to utility extensions, site infrastructure improvements, and large mechanical/electrical system replacements. • Develop the annual facilities capital budget (CapEx) and mult
