## Job Description

Description:   

**ASAHI BEER USA** **|** **OCTOPI BREWING**

**MAINTENANCE PLANNER**

***You Keep Every Machine Ready Before It's Needed***

**Full-Time**

**ABOUT ASAHI BEER USA / OCTOPI BREWING**

Founded in 2014 as a Wisconsin contract brewery, Octopi Brewing has spent over a decade brewing and packaging beer, seltzers, RTDs, and sodas for clients nationwide. In 2024, Asahi — brewers of Asahi Super Dry — acquired Octopi, making us the U.S. production home of Super Dry. Today, our 250+ person team of beverage industry pros keeps that same local, quality-first spirit alive at a state-of-the-art facility.

Our Maintenance Planner works hand-in-hand with Brewing and Production leadership to keep every piece of equipment running reliably — before problems happen, not after.

**THE OPPORTUNITY**

As Octopi scales production for Asahi Super Dry and our contract clients, we need a Maintenance Planner who can turn reactive fixes into proactive planning — keeping our equipment, budgets, and preventative maintenance schedule running like clockwork.

**WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE GREAT**

• Real ownership over a 3-year preventative maintenance schedule and how our equipment budget gets spent

• A high-visibility role bridging Maintenance, Production, and Brewing leadership

• Lead projects and shape how our maintenance systems run — not just execute tasks

**WHAT YOU'LL DO**

• Own and refine our 3-year preventative maintenance schedule, working directly with Brewing Process and Production leadership

• Generate work orders, build out full work packs (permits, parts, instructions), and align PM tasks with OEM recommendations

• Manage spare parts inventory and budget alongside the Maintenance Inventory Coordinator

• Lead root cause analysis on equipment issues and drive continuous improvement across maintenance activities

• Coordinate outside vendors and contracted work, including support during emergency downtime

**WHAT YOU BRING**

**Must-haves:**

• 5+ years of general technical or maintenance experience, including prior planning experience (production or services)

• High degree of mechanical aptitude, with the ability to interpret drawings and technical specifications

• Strong organizational, time management, and project leadership skills

• Comfortable working with ERP systems and electronic data

• Able to lift up to 50 lbs, and bend, twist, and turn as needed

**Nice-to-haves:**

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience

• Experience using AutoCAD

• Experience in the food or beverage industry

**BENEFITS & PERKS**

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage — effective the 1st of the month after 30 days

• Company-paid life, short-term, and long-term disability insurance

• 401(k) with company match — 100% up to 3%, 50% on the next 2%

• 120 hours of PTO annually, with accrual that grows the longer you're here

• 9 paid holidays (if they fall on your scheduled workday)

• A free beer after shift, because you earned it

**PAY**

• Pay: $90,000–$100,000 annually

• Schedule: Monday–Friday, 8am–5pm

*Full-time, exempt*

Requirements: 

**Compensation details:** 90000-100000 Yearly Salary
