Responsibilities
  • Operate plant machinery and equipment including opening and closing valves, monitoring instrumentation panels, and reporting findings from gauges.

  • Move about the premises daily, often exposed to the elements and weather conditions.
  • Perform independently on assignments and follow verbal and written instructions precisely.
  • Communicate effectively with all levels of staff and management.
  • Use forklifts, industrial scales, power tools, and hand tools, and perform maintenance on equipment as needed.

  • Pass a physical, fit test, and pulmonary function test.
  • Wear a full face respirator or Tyvek hood and Tyvek suit for 3-4 hours each day.
