We believe focus, ownership, and excellence are decisive advantages - and we're building a world-class team to turn bold ideas into real capability. \nThis is a rare opportunity to join at an early stage, where you'll have significant ownership, collaborate with exceptional teammates, and make a direct, measurable impact on our mission and the future of the company - regardless of your function. \nDispatcher \nAs a Dispatcher, you will coordinate and support the safe movement of cargo between Castelion facilities, vendors, test sites, and external partners. You will help assign and dispatch drivers and equipment between local and regional sites while maintaining a strict commitment to safety and security in accordance with applicable federal and state regulatory standards. \nThis role requires strong attention to detail, sound judgment, a high degree of ownership, and the ability to operate independently in a fast-paced, high-hazard production environment. \nResponsibilities\nManage incoming service requests, monitor routes, and ensure timely communication between customers, field personnel, and supervisors. \nReceive and prioritize calls, route resources, track progress, maintain logs, and resolve service issues. \nCoordinate the transportation of hazardous materials, energetic materials, chemicals, rocket motor components, production hardware, tooling, and other mission-critical cargo between Castelion facilities, vendors, test sites, and external partners. \nVerify and ensure drivers and equipment comply with applicable hours-of-service requirements, vehicle weight limits, routing restrictions, cargo securement standards, and hazardous materials transportation regulations. \nCoordinate closely with Shipping & Receiving, Inventory, Engineering, Production, and other Operations teams to support time-sensitive material movements. \nFollow applicable emergency response procedures in the event of a spill, vehicle incident, or transportation emergency. \nWhen not actively involved in dispatching, you will support Shipping & Receiving and Materials operations, including shipment preparation, packaging, loading and unloading, material movement, and other logistics activities. \nAdapt to changing priorities between scheduled transportation loads and urgent, mission-driven logistics requirements as company priorities evolve. \nMaintain urgency without compromising discipline. Changing priorities must never compromise safety, traceability, or accountability. \nBasic Qualifications\n3 years of experience working with hazardous materials in a shipping, receiving, transportation, or material-handling environment. \nWorking knowledge of DOT Hazardous Materials Regulations (49 CFR Parts 100-185). \nAbility to complete and maintain required DOT hazardous materials employee training, including general awareness, function-specific, safety, security awareness, and other training applicable to assigned job duties. \nWorking knowledge of applicable Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR), including driver qualification, vehicle inspection, hours-of-service, cargo securement, and hazardous materials transportation requirements. \nAbility to read and understand shipping papers, markings, labels, placards, emergency response information, and other required hazardous materials documentation. \nExperience operating forklifts, pallet jacks, and other material-handling equipment. \nAbility to perform physical work, including lifting and moving materials weighing 25-50 lbs. \nStrong attention to detail and commitment to safety, particularly when working around hazardous or energetic materials. \nAbility to work independently with minimal supervision and exercise sound judgment in the field. \nClear communication skills and the ability to coordinate across multiple teams in a fast-paced environment. \nFlexibility to work overtime, accommodate changing schedules, and support occasional extended or regional routes as operational requirements dictate. \nAbility to obtain and maintain a U.S. government-issued security clearance. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance. \nAbility to monitor and track routes and shipments. \nAbility to coordinate and communicate with appropriate personnel to resolve issues using calm, clear, and decisive judgment. \nStrong organizational and recordkeeping skills. \nPreferred Skills and Experience\n5 years of experience working with hazardous materials in a shipping, receiving, transportation, or material-handling environment. \nExperience in the movement of Class 1 explosives, energetic materials, rocket motors, propellant, or ordnance. \nExperience in the movement of Division 1.1, 1.2, or 1.3 explosives. \nExperience with DOT-regulated hazardous materials transportation and strong familiarity with 49 CFR Parts 100-185. \nExperience packaging, marking, labeling, placarding, documenting, and securing hazardous materials shipments. \nExperience with hazardous waste transportation and applicable Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) requirements. \nExperience coordinating and moving commercial vehicles, equipment, and loads in local and regional transportation environments. \nExperience with warehouse management systems (WMS). \nExperience working in aerospace, defense, military, advanced manufacturing, or other high-hazard environments. \nActive U.S. government security clearance. \nCastelion offers a generous benefits package.
