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. \nEHS Engineer - Project Ranger, New Mexico \nThe Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS) Engineer provides hands-on and technical EHS support for Castelion's Project Ranger operations in New Mexico. The role spans facility construction and buildout, manufacturing, maintenance, facilities, engineering, commissioning, and other site operations. \nProject Ranger is a rapidly developing manufacturing site. Facilities, equipment, processes, and operational requirements will continue to evolve as the site moves from construction and commissioning into sustained manufacturing. The EHS Engineer must be comfortable working through ambiguity, adapting to changing priorities, and building practical EHS systems that keep pace with the site. \nThis is a highly field-oriented role. The EHS Engineer will spend significant time where the work is performed, partnering with operators, technicians, engineers, maintenance, facilities, construction partners, and supervisors. Together they identify hazards, develop practical controls, and make sure EHS requirements are effectively implemented. On a given day that may mean conducting an inspection, reviewing equipmentdesign, participating in a PHA, investigating an incident, or coaching an employee. \nResponsibilities \nProvide daily, hands-on EHS support across construction and buildout, manufacturing, maintenance, facilities, engineering, commissioning, and supporting operations, maintaining a strong presence in operational areas. \nServe as an accessible onsite EHS resource for employees, contractors, and leadership. Independently resolve routine issues, recognize when specialized expertise is needed, and escalate significant risks appropriately. \nPartner with facilities, engineering, construction teams, and contractors to identify and control EHS risks associated with facility construction, equipment installation, infrastructure development, and site modifications. \nParticipate in facility, equipment, and process design reviews, and ensure EHS considerations are built into equipment procurement, installation, and modification before construction or startup. \nSupport new equipment, process changes, commissioning, turnover, pre-startup reviews, and first-time operations, ensuring EHS controls are established before work begins. \nIdentify and evaluate workplace, equipment, process, chemical, construction, and operational hazards, including machine guarding, hazardous energy, electrical, ergonomics, material handling, and access/egress. Partner with engineering and operations to develop practical engineering, administrative, and procedural controls. \nLead and support risk assessments, including JHAs, PHAs, What-If analyses, equipment/process reviews, and operational readiness assessments for new, modified, and higher-risk operations. \nSupport Management of Change processes so that changes to equipment, processes, facilities, materials, procedures, or operating conditions are evaluated before implementation. \nDevelop, implement, and continuously improve site EHS SOPs, programs, policies, JHAs, work instructions, and inspection tools based on regulatory requirements, operational needs, risk assessments, and lessons learned. \nDevelop and deliver EHS training for employees, contractors, technicians, engineers, supervisors, and managers. Work directly with affected teams to roll out new programs, verify that requirements are practical, and reinforce expectations through field coaching. \nExecute and maintain core site EHS programs, including LOTO, machine safety, PPE, respiratory protection, Hazard Communication, electrical safety, hot work, fall protection, confined space, material handling, contractor safety, and emergency preparedness and response. \nConduct routine field inspections and operational walkdowns to verify that controls are effective and to identify emerging risks. Track findings and corrective actions, and work with responsible teams to prioritize them and drive them to closure. \nLead and support incident and near-miss investigations. Identify root causes and contributing factors, develop corrective actions, communicate lessons learned, and verify effectiveness. \nSupport industrial hygiene activities, including exposure assessments, sampling, evaluation of results, and implementation of exposure controls. \nManage day-to-day environmental compliance activities, including hazardous waste management, chemical inventories, spill prevention and response, inspections, and required records. \nSupport operations involving energetic materials and explosives by evaluating operational hazards and working with the Site EHS Manager and the Energetics Safety Manager to incorporate explosives-safety requirements and established controls into operations. Maintain working knowledge of DoD Manual 4145.26 sufficient to recognize applicable requirements and potential compliance concerns. \nSupport site compliance with applicable ATF explosives requirements, including routine inspections, explosives storage and inventory controls, required records, and corrective actions, in coordination with the EHS Site Manager and EHS leadership. \nCollaborate with Castelion EHS personnel at other locations to share procedures, tools, training, and lessons learned while accounting for site-specific requirements. \nMinimum Qualifications \nBachelor's degree in engineering, occupational safety, environmental health and safety, industrial hygiene, environmental science, or a related technical field. \n5+ years of EHS, safety engineering, manufacturing safety, process safety, or related experience in aerospace, defense, chemical processing, advanced manufacturing, or another industrial environment. \nWorking knowledge of OSHA requirements and common industrial EHS programs. \nWorking knowledge of DoD Manual 4145.26 and its application within operations involving ammunition, explosives, or energetic materials. \nDemonstrated experience developing and implementing EHS programs, SOPs, and training. This includes taking a requirement or identified risk from development through stakeholder engagement, field implementation, and verification of effectiveness. \nExperience conducting hazard assessments, inspections, incident investigations, and corrective-action management, including structured methods such as JHA, PHA, What-If, or FMEA. \nExperience supporting new equipment installations, facility modifications, commissioning, startup, or operational-readiness activities. \nAbility to read technical documentation such as equipment specifications, process documentation, engineering drawings, P&IDs, SDSs, and operating procedures. Ability to translate hazards and regulatory requirements into practical controls for manufacturing processes and equipment. \nDemonstrated ability to operate effectively in a startup or rapidly scaling environment, working with incomplete information and competing priorities. \nStrong problem-solving, organizational, written, and verbal communication skills, and the ability to work effectively with operators, technicians, engineers, maintenance personnel, contractors, and leadership. \nComfortable spending significant time in manufacturing, commissioning, and outdoor operational environments. \nAbility to work full-time onsite at Project Ranger in New Mexico and to support operations outside normal business hours when required. \nAbility to meet U.S. export-control requirements (ITAR or EAR). \nPreferred Skills and Experience \nExperience in aerospace, defense, energetic materials, chemical processing, propulsion, or other high-hazard manufacturing environments. \nExperience supporting energetic-material processing, mix/cast, propulsion manufacturing, or test operations. \nExperience supporting a facility from construction and buildout through design reviews, commissioning, startup, and production ramp-up, including working with construction contractors, facilities, engineering, and equipment vendors. \nExperience with Management of Change, Pre-Startup Safety Reviews, or similar readiness processes. \nExperience with machine safety, equipment safeguarding, hazardous-energy control, and engineering controls. \nFamiliarity with ATF explosives requirements and applicable NFPA standards. \nExperience with industrial hygiene, hazardous materials, hazardous waste, environmental compliance, and emergency preparedness and response programs. \nOSHA 30, HAZWOPER, ASP, CSP, or similar training or professional certification. \nCastelion offers a generous benefits package.
