• 5+ years of industry experience, ideally out of specialty chemicals or something closely related to that (PSM-regulated plants)

• Having a background in process control would be a big plus, not a requirement
• Previous experience with air permitting and regulatory standards is a plus
• Need to be the type of person who likes to do a variety of work (wear different hats) as well as someone who works well with other people on teams and who like to be hands-on in a manufacturing plant
