Job description

Location: South Florida (Broward/Miami-Dade/Palm Beach)
Type: Full-time (open to recent grads / early career)
Schedule: [Mon–Fri, 8am–4:30pm] (flexible within production needs)
Reports to: Production Manager / QA Manager
Works closely with: Part-time Senior Formulator (project-based), QA/QC, Warehouse

Role Summary

This is a hands‑on manufacturing role focused on weighing, mixing/blending, and GMP documentation. You will follow SOPs and Master Batch Records to compound supplement formulas accurately, safely, and consistently. This role is ideal for a local science graduate (chemistry/biology/food science/biotech) who wants stable growth into GMP manufacturing, QA systems, and production leadership.

Key Responsibilities

Accurately weigh raw materials using calibrated scales and follow specified tolerances.

Execute Master Batch Records (MBRs) exactly as written (no improvising).

Prepare pre‑blends and operate blending/mixing equipment as trained.

Perform in‑process checks (appearance, weights, yields) and elevate issues immediately.

Assist with encapsulation / filling / packaging support as needed (cross‑trained).

GMP Documentation & Compliance

Complete batch documentation clearly and in real time (legible, complete, correct).

Verify component identity, lot numbers, and status labels before use.

Support line clearance, material reconciliation, and controlled document handling.

Follow data integrity principles (no backdating, no “pencil whipping,” correct corrections only).

Sanitation / Safety

Follow cleaning SOPs, allergen/cross‑contamination controls, and gowning procedures.

Maintain organized, clean work areas (5S mindset).

Follow PPE requirements and safety rules; report hazards or deviations.

Suggest practical improvements that increase accuracy, reduce waste, and improve flow.

Participate in training and periodic internal audits.

What Success Looks Like (90 Days)

Executes weighing + blending steps independently with minimal supervision.

Produces batch records that pass QA review with very low documentation errors.

Consistently follows SOPs and escalates deviations early (before mistakes compound).

Demonstrates reliable cleanliness, organization, and GMP mindset.

Required Qualifications

AA/AS or BS in Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biology, Food Science, Biotechnology (or similar) OR equivalent hands‑on experience in GMP / food / pharma manufacturing.

Strong attention to detail and comfort with routine, structured processes.

Basic math skills (weights, unit conversions, percentages).

Comfortable working in a production environment (powders, PPE, standing/walking).

Preferred Qualifications

6–24 months experience in GMP, food manufacturing, pharma, cosmetics, or supplement production

Familiarity with batch records, SOPs, deviations, CAPA, basic QA concepts.

Forklift experience (optional).

Work involves powders and strong sanitation practices; PPE required.

Why This Role Is Unique

You’ll learn true GMP manufacturing and become the “core” daily operator for compounding.

You’ll collaborate with a Senior Formulator (part‑time, project‑based) who handles formula development/optimization—so you can focus on excellent execution and scaling.

Hourly: $[18–22]/hr depending on experience (growth path available)
