Position Summary
The Laboratory Manager owns the day-to-day operations of Still Bright’s headquarters lab — keeping it running, stocked, calibrated, compliant, and above all safe. This is a hands-on role that spans three connected responsibilities: lab management, quality control, and safety. The person in this seat runs the analytical instrumentation, directs technician performance of QC analysis on process and experiment samples, collects & distributes the data to the technical team, and serves as the lab’s safety lead. Reporting to the VP of Operations, this role keeps the lab’s foundation stable so the science and engineering teams can focus on the work only they can do.
This is a high-trust, build-it-yourself role. As Still Bright scales, the Laboratory Manager will turn ad hoc routines into repeatable, documented procedures - from SOPs and calibration schedules to chemical inventory and safety protocols - so the lab’s operational foundation keeps pace with the company’s growth.
Success in this role is measured in safety, reliability, and judgment: a lab with zero preventable incidents, analytical data that is accurate and traceable, instruments that are well-maintained and qualified, and a lab that is consistently ready to support R&D and pilot work.
Key Responsibilities
Definition of Success
In the first 3–6 months, success looks like: a new headquarters lab that is fully commissioned, organized, and safe; instruments that are calibrated, qualified, and well-maintained; reliable, traceable QC and assay data flowing to the technical team on time; documented SOPs and safety protocols in place and followed; and a track record of zero preventable safety incidents.
