• Read and follow work instructions and Safety Data Sheets.
• Complete required records accurately.
• Keep chemical storage and work areas clean and organized.
• Communicate with the lab technician and production team about tank maintenance needs.
• Stop and ask for guidance when a chemical, instruction, or condition is unclear.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Previous hazardous waste, industrial chemical-handling, or related experience; or chemistry education that provides a strong foundation for safe chemical handling.
• Understanding of chemical compatibility and the risks of mixing incompatible chemicals.
• Ability to follow procedures carefully without guessing, taking shortcuts, or making unauthorized substitutions.
• Comfort working around industrial chemicals while following required safety practices.
• Ability to read, write, speak, and understand English to follow chemical labels, safety instructions, and work procedures.
• Basic math skills to understand quantities, measurements, and chemical-addition instructions.
• Willingness to operate a forklift and complete required training.
• Dependable attendance and the ability to report ready to work for the full scheduled shift.
• A steady work ethic, attention to detail, and willingness to perform physical shop work.

PHYSICAL WORK REQUIREMENTS

• Stand and walk for much of a 10-hour shift.
• Bend, reach, push, pull, and handle materials throughout the workday.
• Move and position chemical drums using appropriate handling equipment.
• Wear required personal protective equipment.
• Work in a production environment where tasks can be dirty and physically demanding.
