Makerspace Technician (Engineering Business Office)
for section headings.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present.
We need to format lists with - . For prose use
.
We need to include metadata like location, department etc? Possibly under About the role or maybe as a short
. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with location, department, etc.
Let's extract substantive content:
- Role: full-time evening and weekend Makerspace Technician to assist with key manufacturing functions and organizational support to weekly activities. Works under Makerspace Manager. Responsibilities: assisting manager in running/maintaining shop equipment, supervising student technicians, leading workshops for JHU community, assisting users with projects during lab hours, maintaining cleanliness, tool instruction/maintenance, enforcing shop safety standards, providing lab management support to faculty/students, oversee daily operations of lab designed to train students in undergrad/grad schools. (Also there is a paragraph about Teaching Laboratory Coordinator but seems duplicated? Actually after responsibilities there is a paragraph about Teaching Laboratory Coordinator that seems like a copy-paste from another job. Might be boilerplate but it's substantive? It says: "The Teaching Laboratory Coordinator provides specialized knowledge to maximize student learning. The Teaching Laboratory Coordinator implements and maintains safety protocols, tracks equipment use, schedules and performs maintenance, and regulates access to laboratory areas". This seems like generic description but still about the role. We'll keep it as part of responsibilities.
- Specific Duties & Responsibilities list: many bullet points.
We need to capture those as list items.
Let's list them:
Maintain the safety of the lab environment and of the students.
Ensure compliance with all applicable departmental, university, federal, state, and local safety environmental regulations.
Serve as a liaison between faculty and students and JHU operations and facilities as needed to address laboratory facility issues.
Develop and recommend processes/procedures/policies to ensure efficiency in lab operations; provide training on recommended changes to relevant staff, students, and faculty.
Provides specialized knowledge to assist students with technical and/or theoretical questions regarding equipment and experiments.
Develop or recommend new equipment or testing techniques to improve the lab’s capabilities.
Communicate with key stakeholders such as faculty, staff, students, and vendors to resolve issues and ensure smooth operation of all lab activities in a timely manner.
Monitor and schedules preventative maintenance on equipment

Maintain working knowledge of protocols and reporting associated with laboratory objectives
Coordinate ordering of supplies and equipment, interacting and negotiating with outside vendors, and internal finance staff.
Other duties as assigned.
In addition to the duties described above WoodworkingDigital FabricationsShop best practices and safety
That last line seems garbled: "In addition to the duties described above WoodworkingDigital FabricationsShop best practices and safety". Probably means additional duties: woodworking, digital fabrication, shop best practices and safety. We'll treat as a bullet: Woodworking, digital fabrication, shop best practices and safety.
