Build the Future of Clean Energy with Mangrove Lithium

We are revolutionizing battery materials with our breakthrough electrochemical lithium refining technology—producing cost-effective, sustainable, battery-grade lithium to power the global EV transition. Backed byworld-class investors—including the Canada Growth Fund, Bill Gates’ Breakthrough Energy Ventures, BMW i Ventures, BDC Capital, and Mitsubishi—we are currently commissioning North America's first electrochemical lithium refining facility right here in Delta, B.C. Join us on the ground floor as we scale game-changing green tech.

• Top-Tier Pay: $31.25 – $43.27/hr with clear room for growth.
• Benefits From Day 1: Premium medical, dental, and vision coverage starting on your first day.
• 4 Weeks Total Paid Time Off: 3 weeks paid vacation + 1 week paid personal days.
• Perks & Support: $500/yr Personal Spending Account (fitness/wellness) + Employee & Family Assistance Program (EFAP).
• Career Growth: Hands‑on experience alongside top technical teams as our operational footprint expands.

What You’ll Do

As a Plant Operator on our Production team, you will operate cutting‑edge electrochemical, water treatment, and chemical processing equipment:

• Commission & Launch: Assist in commissioning new production equipment, refining Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and troubleshooting initial start‑up workflows.
• Control & Monitor: Operate process equipment using SCADA / HMI systems (Ignition) and direct field instrumentation.
• Core Chemical Processing: Prepare chemical batches (handling acids and bases safely), monitor digestors, brine treatment, filtration systems, evaporators, boilers, crystallizers, and proprietary electrolysers.
• Problem‑Solve & Maintain: Perform start‑up/shutdown procedures, run controlled trial runs, diagnose equipment or process drift, and champion strict safety and environmental standards.

Location & Shift Schedule

• Location: Tilbury Industrial Area (Delta, BC). Reliable personal transportation is strongly recommended due to shift start/end times.
• Shift Structure: Rotating shift schedule (days, nights, weekends) providing comprehensive plant coverage paired with predictable, scheduled blocks of time off.

What You Bring

• Experience: 3+ years of hands‑on operator experience in chemical manufacturing, heavy industrial processing, or water/wastewater treatment.
• Chemical Safety Mindset: Strong baseline safety culture and experience handling acids, bases, and hazardous chemical reagents.
• Technical & SCADA Skills: Direct experience using HMI/SCADA systems (e.g., Ignition) and operating industrial equipment (pumps, valves, filtration, boilers, evaporators, crystallizers).
• Schematics & Analytics: Ability to read Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) and follow complex process flow schematics.
• Education: High school diploma with solid foundational math and basic chemistry skills.
• Assets (Bonus Points): Prior experience with electrochemical systems, crystallization, or commissioning new greenfield facilities.
