EHS Coordinator

About the role

Role Name: EHS Coordinator

Department: EHS/ Facilities

Location: Hayward and San Carlos, CA (on-site, split between both sites)

Shift: Mon-Fri

Reports to: EHS Lead

Your Charter

The mission of this role is to be the day-to-day EHS presence on the floor at both Hayward and San Carlos, keeping our programs running, our records current, and our teams safe while the EHS Lead builds what comes next. You split your time between the two sites, work directly with the EHS Lead, and own the execution that keeps both locations compliant with Cal/OSHA, DTSC, and local CUPA requirements. This is a hands-on role for someone early in their EHS career who wants real exposure to robotics and hardware, and room to grow.

Key Outcomes

• Own day-to-day EHS execution across both sites - inspections, recordkeeping, and corrective-action follow-through - so open findings are closed on time and nothing slips between locations.
• Keep written programs (Injury and Illness Prevention Program, Hazard Communication, Emergency Action Plan, lockout/tagout, PPE) current and both sites audit-ready under Cal/OSHA, DTSC, and local CUPA requirements.
• Run hazardous waste operations at both sites - labeling, container checks, manifests, and vendor pickups, including lithium-ion battery and e-waste streams - with no compliance gaps.
• Deliver safety training on schedule with complete records for both sites, and keep emergency readiness real through routine equipment checks (extinguishers, eyewash stations, spill kits), drills, and emergency response team preparedness.
• Drive incident reporting, investigations, and injury case follow-up to closure, and be the visible, approachable safety resource employees go to on the floor.

Key Competencies

• Organized and reliable, with the follow-through to manage competing priorities across two sites without dropping anything.
• Comfortable on the production floor, talking with engineers and technicians and building the working relationships that make safety stick.
• Hands-on operator who would rather fix the eyewash station than file a report about it.
• Curious and eager to learn, with the drive to grow into a broader EHS role as the company scales.

Minimum Requirements

• About 2 years of EHS experience, or a degree in Occupational Safety, Environmental Science, or a related field.
• Basic knowledge of Cal/OSHA and California hazardous waste requirements, or a clear eagerness to learn them.
• Able to work on-site at both Hayward and San Carlos, traveling between sites as needed.

Preferred Skills

• OSHA 10 or OSHA 30, or hazardous waste (RCRA/DOT) training.
• Experience in manufacturing, laboratory, or hardware environments.
• Exposure to lithium-ion batteries, robotics, or electromechanical hardware.
