  • Strong leadership, communication, and collaboration skills with the ability to influence across all levels of an organization
  • Working knowledge of ISO and OSHA standards

  • Health Savings Account (HSA) with employer contributions
  • 401(k) retirement plan with company match
  • Paid parental leave and adoption assistance
  • Wellness programs and employee health initiatives
