Warehouse & Quality Specialist

GA Drilling is developing next-gen drilling technologies to unlock geothermal energy at depths and in conditions that conventional drilling cannot reach economically. Our mission is to make geothermal a scalable, baseload source of clean power by enabling reliable, efficient drilling in hard, hot rock. With engineering teams in the USA, Brazil, the UK, and across Europe, we are progressing rapidly toward commercial deployment of our technologies.

This role is responsible for day‑to‑day warehouse operations, inventory and asset control, and basic quality checks on incoming and stored materials.
