Job Description

  • Mix, mold, cure, and break samples of concrete, soil, asphalt, masonry, and other construction materials, running standardized laboratory tests per ASTM and other applicable methods.
  • Record and report test results accurately, meeting ASTM and other standardized reporting requirements.
  • Keep lab equipment clean, calibrated, and in top working order through routine maintenance and verification checks.
  • Pitch in on other duties as assigned by your supervisor or manager.

Qualifications

  • Ability to lift and carry up to 50 pounds and stay on your feet in a hands-on lab environment working with soil, concrete, and other construction materials.
  • High school diploma or higher degree.
  • 2 years of lab experience or relevant certifications/degree.
  • Technical/engineering background or knowledge, with the ability to obtain ACI Lab Concrete Testing Certification within 6 months of hire.
