Required qualifications: 5+ years implementing and overseeing EHS programs, team leadership experience, Cal/OSHA expertise, knowledge of 40 CFR Parts 260-279 (Hazardous Waste Management), strong written and verbal communication skills, ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines, and U.S. Person status (required for access to export-controlled sites).
Preferred: manufacturing experience, DoD program background, comfort building systems from scratch, willingness to challenge status quo, and a proactive problem-solving mindset.
