This is a fully onsite role at a greenfield life sciences manufacturing facility in Concord, NC, currently characterized by a very heavy construction presence. The environment requires constant safety awareness, adherence to site safety rules, and comfort working around active construction activities. You will work with a broad range of process, utility, manufacturing, and laboratory instruments, including temperature, pressure, humidity, pH, flow, and other measurement systems, as well as 420 mA transmitters and associated electrical panels. The position includes 1st shift roles and 2nd shift roles, with 2nd shift team members initially training on 1st shift before transitioning to lead responsibilities on 2nd shift. OSHA safety practices, lockout/tagout procedures, and use of test and standards equipment are integral parts of daily work.
