Design and implement engineering controls to mitigate physical hazards in research and testing environments.
Establish training and orientation standards for students and researchers utilizing specialized learning centers and assigned laboratories.

Lab Operations & Teaching Support

Support undergraduate teaching laboratories, including equipment setup, maintenance, consumables management, and safety documentation development.
Ensure learning facilities and equipment remain fully operational, functional, and safe, liaising with facility tradespeople for necessary infrastructure enhancements.

Team Leadership & Financial Oversight

Coordinate and mentor technical support staff and co-op students assigned to learning center development and operations.
Manage project budgets by strategically sourcing components, tracking development costs, and ensuring alignment with capital and operational allocations.
