• Disassemble and reassemble equipment as required for thorough cleaning.

• Complete required documentation accurately and in real time to support food safety, quality, and audit readiness.

• Identify and escalate sanitation, safety, or equipment concerns to leadership proactively—see something, say something.

• Maintain compliance with all GMPs, food safety standards, OSHA regulations, and company policies.

• Support continuous improvement initiatives by identifying opportunities to improve sanitation efficiency and effectiveness.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with Production, Maintenance, and Quality teams to ensure operational alignment.
