This is a full-time, on-site position with a standard shift of 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM. Flexibility is required for any 8-hour shift between 5:00 AM and 5:00 PM. While hours may shift based on operational needs, we expect them to remain consistent for the first six months.
What You’ll Do
- Perform physical and chemical testing on refractory materials like bricks, mortars, and castables
- Run tests such as compressive strength, porosity, and density to ensure materials meet internal and external specs
- Inspect products throughout the production process to catch issues early and maintain high standards
- Document test results, inspection findings, and quality reports with accuracy and clarity
- Identify and report nonconformances, assist in root cause investigations, and help implement corrective actions
- Keep testing equipment calibrated and in good working order
- Collaborate with production and procurement teams to resolve quality issues and improve processes
- Support training efforts to help production staff understand and meet quality expectations
What You Bring
- Experience or familiarity with lab testing procedures and equipment
- A sharp eye for detail and a methodical approach to problem-solving
- The ability to stay focused and effective under pressure
- Comfort working in high-temperature environments and lifting materials as needed
- Flexibility to work shifts or overtime when production demands it
