Some of these techniques require developing proficiency for the proper handling of the samples to avoid contamination and following the strict protocol of sample conditioning prior to testing. The Technician will collect data on samples measured using various analytical instruments such as spectrometers, gas chromatographs, microscopes, and titrators. The Technicians will analyze data collected on samples to determine the properties and composition of samples. This may involve using software tools to process and visualize the data. The Technician will record data and verify the accuracy and reliability of the data through calibration and validation of instruments. The Technician will review data produced by the analysis of samples verifying the adherence of the data to meet the required standards and specifications. The Technician will contribute to decisions of the disposition of material batches based on the data analysis. This could involve approving batches from shipment or identifying batches that need rework or rejection.\nEssential Functions\nOperation of Spectrophotometric Instruments:\nOperating instruments like Photoluminescence, FTIR, GC, Agilent 7900s ICP-MS, and Perkin Elmer DRC-ICP-MS.\nSample Preparation:\nPreparing samples for analysis.\nCalibration and Quality Verification\nCalibrating instruments and performing daily quality checks.\nMaintaining calibration standards and analytical solutions.\nFollowing fault tree protocols for re-testing and verification.\nData Management:\nEntering data into the LIMS system.\nLab Maintenance:\nCleaning analytical labware.\nManaging acids, distillers, and stock rotation.\nCompliance and Documentation:\nPerforming tests according to ISO standards and documenting for ISO compliance.
