Air Compliance Technician – Oil & Gas |

Our client, a growing oil and gas exploration and production company headquartered in the Appalachian Basin, is looking for a diligent and safety-minded Air Compliance Technician to support regulatory compliance initiatives across operations in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Key Responsibilities:

• Maintain accurate and detailed records of all inspections, repairs, and corrective actions in accordance with regulatory requirements and company policy.
• Execute field-level repairs and minor maintenance on emission control equipment—such as replacing gaskets, thief hatches, and other small mechanical components.
• Collaborate with Production, Operations, and Regulatory teams to identify and resolve air compliance issues, particularly during drilling and completion SIMOPS.
• Perform QA/QC reviews of inspection data to ensure completeness and accuracy, and organize data within internal digital systems.
• Independently plan and manage daily site visits, with travel expectations of 70–80% throughout Ohio and Pennsylvania (including overnight stays).
• Complete office-based tasks (approx. 20–30% of the role) such as entering data, generating reports, and preparing compliance documentation.
• Maintain strict adherence to all safety policies and actively engage in training and safety meetings.

• Associate’s degree in environmental science, engineering technology, or a related technical field preferred. Equivalent experience (2+ years) in environmental or oil and gas field work will also be considered.
• At least two (2) years of relevant field experience, preferably within the oil and gas industry.
• Hands-on experience using monitoring tools and basic knowledge of equipment like compressors, gas turbines, and pumps.
• Strong familiarity with upstream oil and gas operations and related air compliance standards.
• Prior use of FLIR cameras for OGI inspections and LDAR activities is required.
• Solid understanding of federal and state air quality regulations, especially 40 CFR Part 60 Subparts OOOOa and OOOOb.
• Self-starter with the ability to manage time, prioritize effectively, and work independently in remote environments.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with a professional approach when working with internal teams and external partners.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and Word, and adaptable to using company-specific data management systems.
• Valid driver’s license and a clean driving record in line with company standards.
• Must be comfortable working in diverse outdoor conditions and navigating rugged terrain approximately 70–80% of the time.
• The remaining 20–30% of the role will be performed in an office setting.
