Infrastructure Lead

Feast & Fettle is seeking an Infrastructure Lead to join our Operations team and ensure the reliability, safety, and operational excellence of our growing network of facilities. This is a highly proactive, systems-driven role focused on building and managing strong Preventative Maintenance (PM) programs, optimizing equipment uptime, and coordinating all vendor activity that supports daily production.

This is an onsite role based in Elkridge, MD, East Providence, RI, or Port Chester, NY, operating on a Sunday–Thursday schedule, with flexibility to shift days as needed. Travel up to 25% may be required across sites.

While hands-on repair capabilities are a plus, the heart of this role is operational discipline: building structure, documentation, and accountability into how we maintain our facilities, manage our assets, and protect the production environment that powers our Members’ experience.

What is Feast & Fettle?

Feast & Fettle is the fastest-growing meal delivery service in the Northeast—and that momentum comes from a team of smart, kind people who show up to build, not just keep up. We move with urgency, sweat the right details, and bring care to everything we touch.

What began in 2016 as a private chef’s side hustle has grown into a company serving thousands of households, with a mission that’s both simple and personal: to nourish everyday life. That mission shows up in every detail—from how we source ingredients and plan our weekly menus to the care in every delivery and the trust we build at our Members’ tables.

We care for our people the same way we care for our Members—with consistency, thoughtfulness, and a constant drive to raise the standard. We invest in our team because we know: when you’re supported, you do your best work—and help us do ours.

What you’ll own

I. Preventative Maintenance & Vendor Management

• Own the PM Program: Design, implement, and rigorously manage a comprehensive Preventative Maintenance schedule for all building systems and production equipment—including HVAC, refrigeration, cooking equipment, and our delivery fleet.

• Installation Coordination: Partner with Culinary Operations to prepare for new equipment installations—ensuring all utilities, connections, and prerequisites are in place.
• SOP Development: Standardize operational and maintenance procedures for all new equipment and critical systems to ensure consistency as facilities scale across multiple shifts.

• Capital Projects: Plan, prioritize, and manage capital projects—ensuring on-time, on-budget execution.
• Uptime & Emergency Response: Monitor facility performance and respond rapidly to urgent maintenance issues, particularly during peak weekend hours. Escalate complex repairs immediately to appropriate vendors.
