Job description

You're the kind of person who gets the job rolling - literally. From the moment the raw potatoes arrive, you're hands-on, focused, and ready to keep things running smooth and steady. Peeling isn't just a step in the process, it's the first step, and it matters. A lot.

This role is for someone who takes pride in their work, keeps a sharp eye on the details, and isn't afraid to get a little wet, a little oily, or a little loud. (It's a snack factory, after all.) If you like working with your hands, staying active, and being the person the team can rely on to keep things moving - you might be exactly who we need.

This Might Be You If:

• You like fast-paced work that keeps you on your feet and in motion
• You take pride in doing things right, even if no one's watching
• You're good at spotting issues and even better at solving them
• You enjoy being part of a team that communicates, supports each other, and works hard
• You feel at home around machines (or are excited to learn how they work)
• You're cool working in a warm, noisy, and sometimes messy environment

What You'll Be Doing:

• Unloading raw product and loading it into hoppers for peeling
• Running the peeler station in the basement and monitoring its performance
• Sorting out defective product and foreign materials before they hit the line
• Communicating with kettle operators to stay on track with production
• Managing hopper levels to ensure a consistent product flow
• Operating conveyors and other powered equipment safely
• Monitoring raw material quality and upholding food safety guidelines
• Clearing out waste bins and prepping the area for the next shift
• Accurately filling out logs and required paperwork
• Reporting any equipment issues or product concerns to the right team
• Using pallet jacks, forklifts, loaders, and stretch wrappers (training provided!)
• Cleaning and sanitizing equipment and work areas
• Supporting your team by helping during breaks or shift transitions
• Taking on other duties as needed by your supervisor

What You'll Need:

• Ability to work in a warm, noisy, fast-moving environment
• Physical stamina to stand, bend, lift (up to 50 lbs), and stay active for 12 hours
• A focus on safety, cleanliness, and doing the job right
• Clear communication and teamwork skills
• Experience with machinery or food production is helpful - but not required
• Forklift certification is a plus (or willingness to be trained)

If you're ready to start strong, keep things flowing, and be a key part of how our snacks get made - this might be your role.

Let's peel, pack, and power through - together.

Pay: $20.25 per hour with a base pay of $19.25 and a $1.00 shift differential.

Employment is contingent upon successful completion of a post-offer background check and drug screening in accordance with applicable law.
