Production Batcher - 10hr Days

Full Time Kansas City, KS, US

SUMMARY:

A Shift: 4/10 Schedule Monday-Thursday, Planned OT Friday during peak, 6:00 AM - 4:30 PM

Isolatek International is launching a new manufacturing operation focused on the production of FireSolve® fire-protective coating products. Production Operators will play a critical role in establishing safe, efficient, and high-quality manufacturing operations from day one.

The Production Batcher is responsible for safely preparing, verifying, weighing, staging, and organizing raw materials used in the manufacture of FireSolve® fire-protective coating products. This position serves a critical role in the manufacturing process by ensuring materials are accurately identified, weighed, documented, and prepared prior to batch production activities.

The Production Batcher operates mixing tanks, agitators, pumps, and associated production equipment while following approved batch records, standard operating procedures, quality requirements, and safety standards. The role requires strong attention to detail, inventory accuracy, material control, and process documentation to ensure products are manufactured safely and consistently.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Prepare, verify, weigh, stage, and organize raw materials for FireSolve® production batches.
• Review batch records and production schedules to ensure required materials are available and prepared before batch manufacturing activities begin.
• Verify material codes, lot numbers, quantities, and inventory status prior to use.
• Accurately weigh and document raw material additions in accordance with approved batch records and work instructions.
• Manufacture FireSolve® fire-protective coating products following approved formulas, procedures, and operating instructions.
• Operate mixing tanks, agitators, pumps, scales, drum handling equipment, forklifts, and related production equipment.
• Execute controlled raw material additions and follow established addition sequences.
• Prepare and blend solvent mixtures in accordance with approved manufacturing procedures.
• Monitor batch progress and communicate quality, process, or material concerns to management.
• Maintain accurate batch records, material usage records, inventory documentation, and equipment logs.
• Verify material consumption and support inventory accuracy through proper documentation and material control practices.
• Perform routine process monitoring and production checks as required by manufacturing procedures.
• Support quality verification activities and accurately document production information.
• Stage materials and equipment required for upcoming production runs.
• Safely operate forklifts and other material handling equipment to move raw materials, work-in-process materials, and finished goods.
• Clean and maintain batching equipment, production vessels, pumps, and work areas.
• Maintain housekeeping and 5S standards within the batching and production areas.
• Follow all company safety policies, procedures, and training requirements.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

INSIDE COMPANY:

• QC Manager
• Warehouse operators

SCOPE OF POSITION:

• The Production Batcher supports the safe and reliable manufacture of FireSolve® fire-protective coating products by controlling the material preparation and batching portions of the manufacturing process.
• Approximately 80% of the role is dedicated to batching activities including material verification, material staging, weighing, inventory control, solvent blending, batch documentation, and operation of mixing equipment. The remaining portion of the role supports material handling, housekeeping, equipment cleaning, and production support activities.

Unlike the Production Operator position, which primarily utilizes pre-weighed and pre-staged materials during manufacturing operations, the Production Batcher is directly responsible for organizing, verifying, documenting, and preparing materials before they enter the manufacturing process. This role requires a higher level of attention to detail, inventory accuracy, material accountability, and process organization
