• Support day-to-day engineering activities by preparing test setups, managing shared equipment, and scheduling lab usage
• Serve as the primary point of contact for all lab-related operations, including audits, compliance checks, and process improvements
• Collaborate with global hardware teams to define, document, and promote lab safety and operational best practices
• Lead onboarding of new lab users with safety orientation and access procedures
• Identify opportunities for continuous improvement and implement practical solutions to improve lab safety, efficiency, and usability

What We're Looking For

• Associate’s Degree or Technical Diploma in, Occupational Health & Safety, Industrial Technology, Engineering Technology, or a related technical field
• 7-10 years of professional experience in managing safety in a lab, manufacturing, or technical environment
• Working knowledge of safety protocols, risk assessments, and regulatory compliance (e.g., OSHA, EPA, ISO standards)
• Certification in Health & Safety (e.g., OSHA 30, CHST, HAZWOPER, NEBOSH, CPR or equivalent)
• Experience implementing or improving engineering process frameworks or continuous improvement initiatives (e.g., Lean, Six Sigma).
• Knowledge of materials handling, ESD protection, and lab instrumentation
• Experience supporting hardware engineering teams or R&D environments
• Proficient in maintaining technical inventories and using digital systems for tracking and scheduling
• Proficiency in data analysis and reporting tools (e.g., Excel, Power BI, or similar).
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across multiple functional teams (Engineering, Manufacturing, Purchasing, Sourcing, Quality, Compliance, Field Service, and ERP/Configuration)
• Demonstrated ability to handle numerous tasks in a fast-paced, global engineering environment.
