Job Description

A day in the life

You start your morning calibrating a labeler, double-checking SKUs against seed-to-sale records, and staging child-resistant containers for the day’s run. As orders roll in, you rotate between hand-packaging premium flower and operating automated equipment for vapes and edibles. Throughout the shift, you verify weights to the tenth, log batches with precision, and keep your line audit-ready. Before you leave, you reconcile inventory, tidy the workcell, and beat the day’s KPIs—safely and compliantly.
