    About This Job

    If you enjoy hands-on work, operating equipment, and being part of a team that keeps products moving, this could be a great opportunity to join Badger Mining Corporation.

    As a Night-Shift Rail Loadout Operator, you’ll help safely and efficiently load sand products into railcars for shipment to our customers. This role combines rail operations, equipment operation, quality testing, troubleshooting, and general plant support. You’ll operate rail and loadout equipment, move and switch railcars, inspect equipment and tracks, test product quality, and help keep the rail loadout area safe and running efficiently.

    Schedule: Full-time, night shift

    What You’ll Do

    • Safely load railcars according to customer orders, product specifications, and legal weight requirements.
    • Operate the rail loadout system and related equipment, including the rail PLC system and TrackMobile.
    • Safely move, switch, spot, and prepare railcars for loading and shipment.
    • Complete routine inspections of railcars, tracks, loadout systems, and mobile equipment.
    • Collect and test sand samples to confirm that products meet customer specifications.
    • Accurately record testing results, railcar arrivals, inspections, and loadout information in applicable computer systems.
    • Troubleshoot equipment and process-flow issues to help maintain safe and efficient operations.
    • Operate mobile equipment and complete required pre-shift inspections, fueling, greasing, and operator reports.
    • Perform workplace examinations, identify hazards or equipment concerns, and communicate needed repairs.
    • Use required fall-protection equipment when working at elevated heights or on top of railcars.
    • Maintain the rail loadout area through general housekeeping, including addressing snow, ice, and spill hazards.
    • Support other production areas as needed and maintain a general understanding of plant operations.

    What You’ll Bring

    • High school diploma or equivalent.
    • Basic computer, math, and reading skills.
    • Good verbal and written communication skills.
    • Strong attention to detail.
    • Ability to work independently and make sound decisions in a self-directed night-shift environment.
    • Ability to work safely and follow established procedures.
    • Willingness to learn rail operations, quality testing, and plant processes.
    • Ability to work effectively as part of a team.

    Bonus Points If You Have

    • Previous equipment-operating experience.
    • Basic mechanical or maintenance skills.
    • Experience in mining, manufacturing, rail, production, shipping, loadout, or another industrial environment.

    Physical & Work Requirements

    This is an active, hands-on position that requires frequent standing, walking, climbing, reaching, bending, and stooping. Associates must be able to regularly lift and carry up to 50 pounds, work at elevated heights, and perform duties outdoors in varying weather conditions.

    Candidates must successfully complete required pre-employment testing and receive medical clearance to wear respiratory protection.

    Why Badger Mining?

    This position is a good fit for someone who enjoys variety and wants the opportunity to learn multiple areas of plant operations. You’ll build experience with rail operations, mobile equipment, quality testing, process controls, troubleshooting, and production operations while working as part of a safety-focused team.
