Join Our Team as a Production Lead - Cannabis Processing (Swing Shift, Extraction Focus)
We're a well-established cannabis processing company, proudly operating since 2016, and we're looking to grow our exceptional team. As a small but highly efficient group, we consistently punch above our weight in a competitive industry, and we're looking for diligent, detail-oriented, and collaborative individuals to help us go even further.
Experience in cannabis, extraction, or distillation is certainly welcome, but not required. More important to us are qualities like accountability, hard work, attention to detail, and a positive, team-first attitude. If you've always had a knack for science, technology, or chemistry, even without formal experience, this could be a great opportunity to put that passion to work. We'll teach you the rest.
We're problem solvers by nature, and right now, our biggest challenge is finding great people to grow with us.
Are you the solution?
