Familiarity with common lab equipment, safety protocols, and laboratory information management systems (LIMS) is essential. Attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and effective teamwork are crucial soft skills in this role. These abilities ensure accurate test results, maintain safety standards, and support efficient lab operations.

Laboratory technicians in a Lab One setting often encounter challenges such as maintaining strict adherence to safety protocols, managing time effectively across multiple experiments, and ensuring accurate documentation of results.

Job description

Description

Frac Sand Mining & Processing |  Rotating Shifts


Earn $21 - $24 / Hour Monthly Production Bonus Company-Paid Medical, Dental & Vision 401(k) Match


As our Quality Control Lab Technician, you run the hourly and daily tests that tell the plant whether the sand is on spec - and when it isn't, your call is the one that gets things corrected before a customer ever sees it.


This is hands-on, high-tempo lab work: prep the sample, run the test, read the number, log it, speak up. If you take pride in being right the first time, you'll do well here.


Coming from mining, aggregates, materials testing, or any heavy industrial lab? You'll be right at home.


What You'll Do

  • Run hourly and daily tests on frac sand samples - quality, consistency, and spec compliance.
  • Prep samples start to finish: weighing, sieving, mixing, and whatever the method calls for.
  • Perform particle size distribution, density, and chemical composition testing using approved equipment and techniques.
  • Operate, clean, calibrate, and troubleshoot lab instruments - sieves, hydrometers, scales, and more.
  • Log results accurately in lab records and computer systems. Numbers people can trust.
  • Compile reports and flag any deviation from quality standards - fast, and to the right person.
  • Keep the lab clean, organized, and safe, and follow every safety protocol and industry regulation.
  • Help improve how we test: new procedures, better methods, smarter workflows.

Requirements

Your Schedule

Rotating shifts, supporting continuous plant operations. You'll need to be available for nights, weekends, and holidays as scheduled - the plant doesn't stop, and neither does quality control.

What's In It For You

  • Company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Monthly production bonus eligibility
  • Paid vacation and company holidays
  • PPE reimbursement, including approved safety boots and protective equipment
  • Competitive hourly pay
  • Real career growth with a rapidly expanding company

What You Bring

  • Previous laboratory or quality control experience - ideally mining or materials testing (preferred, not required)
  • Familiarity with frac sand testing methods and equipment is a plus
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, and the attention to detail to catch what others miss
  • Comfort operating lab equipment and related software accurately
  • Ability to juggle multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment without cutting corners
  • A genuine commitment to safety, compliance, teamwork, and honest reporting
  • Ability to sit for extended periods, bend, crouch, kneel, work in awkward positions, and lift or move up to 25 pounds

Why Independence?

We're growing fast, and we're growing on the strength of our product. That makes the lab one of the most important rooms in the building. You'll have the equipment, the training, and the backing to do the job right - and a clear path forward if you want more than the job you were hired for.

Apply today - and help us prove it, one sample at a time.
