Field / Laboratory Technician

OWN, Inc. • Part-time • Kansas City, MO, US • 2w ago

In 2023, we changed our name from Anderson Engineering, Inc. to OWN, Inc. to be more reflective of our team and the mindset that makes us go. While the name may be new, the links to the past have led us to what we are today: a community of talented employee-owners driven by mutual success.

OWN, Inc. is an engineering firm that believes in the power of employee-ownership. Our talented team builds futures while helping shape the built environment across the country from our offices in Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, and Florida. We serve the Private Development and Public Infrastructure markets with core offerings of Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, Land Surveying, and Field Services. No matter the project or scope, our clients enjoy problem-solving and service that goes beyond the expected.

We are looking for a Field/Laboratory Technician to join our Joplin team.

Responsibilities may include:

Assist with field inspections of construction projects, working closely with experienced technicians and engineers to learn proper inspection techniques and procedures.
Perform materials testing under the guidance and supervision of senior technicians, ensuring compliance with established protocols.
Learn to collect samples from job sites and assist in transporting them to the laboratory for further analysis.
Assist in conducting laboratory tests on construction materials, following standardized procedures and utilizing appropriate testing equipment.
Record and document test results accurately, maintaining detailed records of findings and observations.
Support the team in preparing reports and summaries, contributing to the overall project documentation.
Adhere to safety guidelines and protocols, ensuring a safe working environment for yourself and others.
Maintain cleanliness and organization of the laboratory and testing equipment.
Embrace a learning mindset, actively seeking opportunities to expand your knowledge and skills in construction materials testing.

Required Skills/Abilities

High school diploma or equivalent.
Strong interest in the civil/structural engineering industry, with a desire to gain hands-on experience in the field and laboratory.
Basic computer skills and proficiency in using standard software applications.
Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy in recording and documenting data.
Effective communication skills, both verbal and written.
Ability to work well in a team environment, collaborating with colleagues to achieve project goals.
Physical fitness and the ability to perform tasks that may require lifting, bending, and standing for extended periods.
Valid driver's license and clean driving record.

When you join us, you can find your OWN way through:

1. Community. Giving of time, treasures, and talents to fulfill personal passions and show up in your community.

2. Empowerment. Our employees are given full reign and the trust to make decisions in the best interest of their clients and teams.

3. Flexibility. The freedom to be a professional. The freedom to be a person.

4. ESOP. Our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) is owned 100% by employees – equitably, a fact most employee-owned firms can’t claim.

5. Having fun. Laughing, jokes, high fives, celebrations – we take our work seriously but not ourselves.

6. Teamwork. A sense of belonging, learning from those around you, and feeling like you’re on the winning team.

It is the policy of OWN, Inc. to provide equal employment opportunities to all persons without regard to their race, age, color, physical handicap or disability, military service record, religion, sex, national origin or any other categorization protected by law, and to promote the full realization of equal employment opportunity through a positive continuing program.
