• •Maintain accurate documentation and follow Chemline's Quality Management System and safety procedures
• •Communicate results and quality concerns clearly to Quality, Production, and other teams
• •Keep the lab organized and help maintain equipment and supplies

What You Bring

• •6–12 months of lab, quality, or manufacturing experience preferred
• •Ability to learn and consistently perform established test methods, and interpret specs and results
• •Comfortable operating lab equipment — balances, viscometers, convection ovens, water baths, titration equipment
• •Strong attention to detail, documentation skills, and a continuous improvement mindset
• •Dependable, accountable, and able to work well independently and on a team

• Why Chemline
• This is a great entry point for someone who wants hands-on lab experience and a real path forward in Quality — you'll develop troubleshooting skills, technical knowledge, and cross-functional relationships while working on products that matter to our customers.
