What this role is
Supervises a crew of field maintenance technicians performing routine checks, repairs, and installation on drilling, well, and pipeline equipment. At the Manager (Team Lead) (M1) level, the role owns a single team, day-to-day delivery and people issues, and drives team output and health. Direct people management of one team.
What this level does
- Supervises daily operations of a field maintenance crew, assigning callouts and preventive-maintenance routes and ensuring technicians clean, lubricate and perform routine maintenance on equipment and vehicles to schedule
- Reviews completed job reports and equipment stock levels in company vehicles, verifying that preventive-maintenance tasks and on-site repairs were performed to standard
- Handles day-to-day dispatch and escalation of customer callouts within the unit, stepping in to troubleshoot when technicians hit a repair they cannot resolve alone
- Coaches entry-level technicians on safe operation, equipment lubrication and routine service best practices during ride-alongs at customer locations
- Monitors CMMS work-order completion for the crew, closing out tickets and flagging overdue preventive-maintenance tasks to keep the unit's backlog current
- Knowledge applied
- Applies functional field-maintenance expertise — routine servicing, equipment lubrication and basic break-fix — to oversee daily crew operations within established maintenance practices and safety manuals.
- Complexity & problem solving
- Handles limited-scope problems using established procedures; escalates callouts and repairs beyond routine troubleshooting rather than defining new methods.
- Collaboration & interaction
- Daily interaction with technicians and peers to assign work, dispatch callouts and coach on safe operation and maintenance best practices.
- Typical experience
- Functional maintenance expert with some leadership exposure, typically promoted from a senior/lead technician role.
Skills at this level
- Reading technical documentation and schematics
- — Reads and interprets technical instructions, safety and service manuals, and company policies, and works with electric/electronic and hydraulic system schematics, wiring diagrams and equipment service manuals to guide diagnosis and repair decisions across the team.
- Preventive and routine maintenance programs
- — Establishes and oversees schedules for cleaning, lubricating and servicing equipment and vehicles, ensuring routine preventive-maintenance tasks are completed on interval to sustain equipment uptime.
- Root-cause analysis of equipment failures
- — Observes devices in operation and dismantles them to locate the underlying cause of recurring or critical failures, then decides corrective repair, replacement or procedure change to prevent reoccurrence.
- Advanced troubleshooting and break-fix diagnosis
- — Diagnoses errors and technical problems on complex and critical equipment, testing and isolating faults across electrical, hydraulic and mechanical systems and determining the proper repair solution.
- Maintenance data trend analysis
- — Uses advanced maintenance technologies and CMMS data to collect equipment-performance data, observe reliability trends and make recommendations that reprioritize preventive-maintenance programs.
- CMMS work-order management
- — Uses a Computerized Maintenance Management System to dispatch callouts, track work-order completion, monitor preventive-maintenance backlog and close out field job reports for the team.
- Field dispatch and callout coordination
- — Assigns and prioritizes customer callouts and preventive routes for mobile technicians working out of field service trucks, balancing scheduled maintenance against unplanned emergencies and coverage constraints.
- Technician coaching and technical training
- — Coaches technicians and customer staff on safe operation, maintenance best practices and procedures for new equipment installations, raising the technical capability and consistency of field work.
- Field service safety and compliance oversight
- — Ensures technicians follow safety manuals and procedures during on-site installation, repair and testing, and sets maintenance policy that keeps the function compliant with safety and contractual standards.
- Truck stock and spare-parts logistics
- — Coordinates with parts and dispatch to maintain equipment and spare stock in company vehicles so technicians arrive at customer sites equipped for scheduled and emergency maintenance.
- Maintenance budget and fleet management
- — Owns the operating budget, service-truck fleet and spare-parts investment for field maintenance, balancing coverage, cost and equipment-availability outcomes.
- Predictive maintenance strategy
- — Directs adoption of advanced maintenance technologies and analytics to shift the function from reactive break-fix toward trend-driven predictive maintenance across teams and territories.
