Ensure that test machines and analytical instruments are properly calibrated and functioning correctly before use.
Follow detailed written and verbal procedures, methods, and protocols to ensure consistent and compliant testing.
Maintain accurate laboratory notebooks, records, and documentation in accordance with internal standards and accreditation requirements.
Support day-to-day operational activities of the chemistry lab, including general housekeeping, organization of work areas, and care of equipment.
Apply mathematical concepts to calculate concentrations, interpret results, and verify data accuracy.
Take accountability for personal learning and development by actively seeking feedback, taking notes, and applying lessons learned to improve performance.
Collaborate effectively with team members while also working independently on assigned tasks and projects.
Adhere to safety procedures and best practices while working with industrial equipment, furnaces, saws, and other tools used in metal sample preparation.

Attention to safety practices and safe handling of tools, equipment, and materials.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Experience or familiarity with metal testing techniques
Experience or hobby involving hands-on mechanical, construction, automotive, or shop work is a plus, given the industrial and mechanical nature of sample preparation.
