Director Predictive Analytics Jobs in Oregon (NOW HIRING)

ThermalWorks LLC has an exciting opportunity for a Spare Parts Director to join our team, working directly with the COO of ThermalWorks and overseeing inventory management, customer parts recommendations, vendor relationships, and predictive analytics for parts planning. This role ensures that ThermalWorks' service department is fully supported during startup, commissioning, and warranty periods, while providing customers with expert guidance on maintaining their own on-site spare parts inventory after warranty expiration. The Spare Parts Director plays a critical role in keeping TW equipment running reliably for customers, minimizing downtime, and strengthening long-term customer relationships through proactive parts support.

The Spare Parts Director  needs to be agile, professional, trustworthy with confidential information and comfortable in a rapidly changing environment. The right person can work well both independently and with a team.   

ThermalWorks values efficiency and strives to maintain smooth operations. Our primary focus is on providing an integrated cooling system for data centers and commercial buildings that dramatically reduces the energy demand, water consumption and cost of cooling. It transforms the economics and eco-metrics of commercial cooling with zero water solutions that outperform air- and water-cooled systems in any climate.

ThermalWorks solutions are sustainable and cutting-edge. For that reason, we are highly selective about the people we bring on board because our work depends on it. Change and progress happen quickly, and we must be able to trust one another to be honest, communicative, reliable and self-motivated. We seek ultra-creatives and superstar performers with a sense of humility and a hunger to make a positive impact in the world. We offer flexibility and endless growth opportunities to those who can harness their skills and talents and identify how and where to use them to add value. ThermalWorks is one of several "inspired infrastructure" companies that work collaboratively under our parent company, Endeavour Energy, LLC. At the heart of this ecosystem is a diverse group of bright, passionate, dedicated people, working together to make a real difference for people and the planet. ThermalWorks is looking for someone to join our team to help us move the needle toward sustainable change. Are you ready to join the journey?
