  • High level of attention to detail and ability to follow precise procedures without deviation.
  • Good communication skills and ability to work as part of a small, high-trust team.

  • Preferred : Experience working under ISO 9001, AS9100, or similar quality management systems.
  • Prior training in explosives safety, hazmat handling, or ESD protocols is highly desirable.
  • Work Environment and Conditions :

  • Work is performed in a static-controlled, or designated explosives assembly area.
  • Requires standing or sitting for extended periods and working under magnification.
  • Personal protective equipment (PPE) and adherence to safety protocols are mandatory.
  • Exposure to energetic materials requires strict procedural compliance at all times.
  • What we will offer to the right candidate :

  • $19.00 per hour starting pay
