About the job

At Charge Robotics, we are pioneering the development of large-scale robotic systems designed to install utility-scale solar solutions. We are looking for a seasoned safety professional to collaborate with us in creating robust and efficient workplace safety programs tailored for our robotic construction systems at our headquarters in the East Bay. This is a part-time consulting position, blending onsite safety support with the development and validation of safety protocols.

Key Responsibilities:

Phase 1: Initial Safety System Development

  • Perform an extensive risk assessment of our robotic construction systems, which include conveyor systems, autonomous robotic arms, pneumatic actuators, high-voltage systems, and material handling operations.

  • Evaluate and enhance our existing safety infrastructure (E-stop zones, pressure pad systems, gate interlocks, fall protection, barriers/guarding).

  • Design comprehensive safety protocols for multi-zone E-stop systems, lockout/tagout procedures for complex mechanical/electrical/pneumatic systems, and loading/unloading operations involving heavy equipment.

  • Create Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) templates and develop task-based risk assessment methodologies for both routine and non-routine operations.

  • Develop training materials and conduct initial safety training sessions for the team.

Phase 2: Ongoing Safety Monitoring & Protocol Updates (~5 hrs/week)

  • Conduct weekly onsite visits to observe operations, identify new hazards, and ensure compliance with established protocols.

  • Revise safety protocols as systems evolve and new equipment or processes are introduced.

  • Investigate incidents and near-misses, providing actionable recommendations to mitigate risks.

  • Perform quarterly safety system audits and documentation evaluations.

  • Assist the team with incident response and OSHA compliance inquiries.

  • Review design modifications for safety implications prior to implementation.

Qualifications:

  • CSP (Certified Safety Professional) certification with a minimum of 8 years of experience in manufacturing or industrial automation environments, preferably with robotic systems, automated manufacturing, or large-scale material handling.

  • Strong understanding of machine guarding, lockout/tagout for intricate systems, OSHA standards, and safety protocols for industrial robots.

  • In-depth knowledge of pinch points, crush hazards, automated machinery risks, and other functional safety considerations.
