EHS Specialist

T1 Energy is bringing solar manufacturing back to the U.S. by building a domestic solar supply chain. Our mission is to invigorate America with scalable, reliable, and low-cost energy. Our fully operational 5GW solar module facility in Wilmer, Texas, can manufacture more than 20,000 modules every 24 hours. By the time you finish reading this paragraph, we will have produced two solar panels that will power American homes and fuel domestic AI.

We're focused on building advanced American manufacturing and we're passionate about engineering a better future filled with abundant energy.

T1 Energy is seeking a Safety Specialist to support environmental, health, and safety programs as we build and commission our advanced manufacturing facility. Reporting to the EHS Director, this role will initially work in an active construction-site environment, partnering with project teams, contractors, and vendors to identify and mitigate hazards, verify compliance, and support safe execution of construction activities. As the facility moves toward operations, the Safety Specialist will help develop, document, and implement site‑specific EHS programs, policies, procedures, safe work instructions, and standard operating procedures (SOPs), while supporting incident response, training, audits, and a proactive, zero-harm safety culture.

• Support EHS activities in an active construction-site environment until the manufacturing facility is completed and transitioned into commissioning and operations.
• Partner with project management, construction contractors, subcontractors, and vendors to review work plans, conduct field observations, address unsafe conditions, and promote compliance with site and regulatory requirements.
• Perform routine field observations, facility inspections, and compliance audits to verify adherence to OSHA requirements, company EHS programs, and safe work practices.
• Identify environmental, health, and safety hazards; recommend practical corrective actions; elevate significant risks; and track findings through closure.
• Respond to workplace incidents, injuries, spills, and near misses; gather facts, conduct or support investigations, identify root causes, and prepare clear written reports.
• Develop and deliver safety and environmental training on required protective equipment, emergency response, hazard recognition, and other assigned EHS topics.
• Verify that employees, contractors, and vendors use required personal protective equipment and follow applicable site requirements.
• Support emergency preparedness by helping maintain emergency action plans, response procedures, drills, and incident command readiness.
• Assist with the creation, review, implementation, and continuous improvement of site EHS policies, procedures, SOPs, safe work instructions, forms, permits, and training materials for construction, commissioning, startup, and ongoing manufacturing operations.
• Work with equipment owners, operations, engineering, facilities, and other stakeholders to translate regulatory and company requirements into practical site procedures and controls.
• Partner with site leaders and cross‑functional teams to improve safety performance, reinforce accountability, and promote a zero‑harm culture.
• Support ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management systems, including program implementation, document control, internal audits, and continuous improvement activities.
• Maintain accurate EHS records, reports, training documentation, compliance calendars, and related information in company systems.
• Monitor applicable environmental and occupational safety requirements, including OSHA, EPA, TCEQ, and relevant hazardous‑material and reporting standards.
