Processing Operator (2nd, 3rd Shift)

The role: You run the equipment that turns raw ingredients into formula — mixers, heat treatment systems, and spray dryers. Technical, computer-interfaced, and documentation-heavy. If something is off here, everything downstream is affected. What you’ll do every shift Operate industrial mixers, homogenizers, heat treatment systems, and spray dryers via HMI controls Manage and document bulk ingredient blending, heat treatment, and controlled batch weighing Operate, monitor, and document computer-controlled Clean-In-Place (CIP) systems Perform CIP, Clean-Out-of-Place (COP), and routine sanitation per SOP Complete all batch records and electronic documentation in real time per GDP Work cross-functionally with quality, warehouse, and canning as needed You’ve worked in food processing, pharma manufacturing, or another technical production environment You’re comfortable with computer screens and data entry — HMI interfaces are part of every shift You stay calm and methodical when multiple systems need attention at once You have no manufacturing background but you’re technically minded, precise, and treat documentation as seriously as the physical work What the processing floor is actually like Warm in places — heat treatment and spray drying equipment generates heat; temperature varies by zone Technical — you’re reading screens and managing process data alongside the physical operation Documentation-intensive — a missed entry in a batch record is a nonconformance, not a minor oversight Physical — moving between equipment stations and handling ingredient bags up to 60 lbs throughout the shift Shift preference All three shifts are available. When you apply, rank your shift preference. We’ll match you based on availability and what works for both of us. Being open to more than one shift means a faster offer. 3rd shift — permanent overnight (not a rotation), $2/hr more, best if you naturally run on a night schedule What we need from you Available every scheduled shift — we use a point-based attendance system; exceeding the threshold is a separation event On your feet 8–10 hours and lifting up to 60 lbs repeatedly — this is physically demanding work, every shift Comfortable following written SOPs and completing batch records accurately in real time Able to meet GMP requirements: hair net, no jewelry, no nail polish, no fragrances, dedicated footwear — every shift Manufacturing experience preferred (food, beverage, pharma, military, trades) — we will train the right person The honest picture: Regulated infant formula facility. FDA inspects. Concrete floors, loud equipment, continuous production. You gown in every shift — hair net, no jewelry, no nail polish, no fragrances, dedicated footwear. No phone on the floor. If consistent attendance is a challenge right now, this role isn't the right fit — and that’s okay to know before you apply.
