Job description

Company Overview

Alloyed is a young venture‑funded company built with world‑class metallurgists, mechanical engineers, technicians, and software developers. Operating from our HQ in the UK but also globally, we are building the future of advanced metal components. Our innovative approach integrates proprietary software that combines advanced machine learning and physical modelling with extensive experimental facilities, enabling us to 3D‑print metal components more efficiently and effectively than anyone else.

Our facilities in Yarnton and Abingdon, near Oxford, are dedicated to establishing the world’s fastest, smartest, and best‑equipped environment for the rapid development of additively manufactured parts and the creation of novel metal alloys for enhanced performance.

We serve a variety of sectors including electronics, aerospace, and industrial by leveraging our cutting‑edge technology to build businesses across diverse markets, each with unique requirements, timelines, customers, and cultures.

Role Overview

Alloyed is seeking a dedicated, methodical, and hands‑on professional to join the Seattle team as Site Safety & Facilities Officer. This is a unique full‑time dual‑function role that carries equal weight across two complementary disciplines: ensuring the site is safe and fully compliant, and keeping the facility well‑maintained and running smoothly day to day.

On the safety side, you will work closely with Alloyed’s UK‑based Health & Safety team, which sets company‑wide priorities and standards. Your job is to implement those programs at the Seattle site, translating them into local practice, verifying alignment with Washington State regulations (WISHA / L&I / OSHA), and engaging the right local providers to get things done. You do not need to be a process‑safety specialist; you do need to be resourceful and able to quickly research and apply unfamiliar regulatory requirements.

On the facilities side, you will be the go‑to person for day‑to‑day building operations, from hands‑on minor maintenance and furniture assembly to coordinating licensed contractors for electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and waste‑management work. You will work in close partnership with Alloyed’s UK‑based Infrastructure and Facilities team.

This is an onsite role reporting to both the Seattle Site Manager and the Infrastructure & Safety Director.

Responsibilities

• Act as the Seattle site’s primary health and safety contact, implementing UK H&S team programs while ensuring alignment with local applicable regulations.
• Conduct workplace inspections, identify hazards, recommend corrective actions, and track remediation through to closure.
• Create and/or maintain risk assessments, safe‑work procedures, safety signage, records and logs.
• Investigate accidents and near‑misses, document findings and corrective actions, and report progress to the UK H&S team.
• Carry out hands‑on minor maintenance, furniture assembly, space moves, light repairs, and general site upkeep.
• Respond to facilities requests, resolving issues directly or coordinating with contractors for electrical, plumbing, HVAC, fire suppression, access control, security, cleaning, and waste services.
• Inspect internal and external areas to keep the site clean, safe, presentable, accessible, and compliant.
• Assist with office and workshop space reconfigurations.
• Liaise with the UK Infrastructure and Facilities team on projects, procurement, maintenance schedules, contractor work orders, expenditure records, and site improvements.

Essential Skills

• Considerable experience in facilities management, workplace health & safety, EHS coordination, or a closely related field.
• Hands‑on competency with minor building maintenance tasks (drilling, assembly, basic repairs) and confidence using standard power and hand tools.
• Proven ability to research local regulatory requirements, identify appropriate service providers, and manage vendor relationships.
• Strong organisational skills; able to manage multiple concurrent priorities and switch between administrative and physical tasks throughout the day.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable engaging with employees, contractors, regulators, and UK‑based colleagues across time zones.
• Proficient with Microsoft Office 365 (PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, Teams).
• Physical fitness and willingness to undertake manual tasks throughout the working day.
• Valid Washington State driver’s licence.
• Ability to work in a fast‑paced agile environment.

Desired Skills

• Familiarity with OSHA General Industry standards, Washington State workplace safety regulations, Seattle Fire Code, and chemical safety standards.
• Experience creating and reviewing risk assessments for industrial machinery, hazardous substances, or manufacturing processes.
• Experience in a manufacturing, laboratory, research, or advanced industrial environment.
• Forklift operator certification.
• Prior experience working with remote or internationally‑based teams.
• Prior experience working in an AS9100‑certified or ISO 9001‑compliant environment, with familiarity supporting ITAR‑controlled facilities.
