  • Complete quality checks and paperwork every day to maintain production and industry regulations and company standards.
  • Make sure work environment remains safe, uncluttered, clean and well-maintained by performing maintenance and general janitorial duties throughout shift as time allows.
  • Look over all work orders and instructions to see which ingredients, machines, parts and materials are needed to complete orders to full customer satisfaction.
  • Engage in continuing education training and seminars to remain up-to-date on the latest industry techniques, machines, safety regulations and equipment.
  • Troubleshoot, diagnose, repair and maintain assigned machines and equipment as needed for maximum product quality and operational efficiency.

  • High school diploma or GED
  • Able to lift at least 75 pounds
  • At least a full year of work experience as a machine press operator
