What the role is about:

The Quality Control Technician is a non-exempt (hourly) role that reports to the Lead, ASM of Packaging and is responsible for efficiently completing batches of joints and packaged flower.

This position upholds Proper Cannabis’s mission, vision, goals, and objectives.

What impact you’ll make:

• Keep production flowing from Post Harvest to Fulfillment by completing master cases of product and reporting accurate unit counts to leadership (approximately 80% of time, including the next six items)

• Maintain stock and PPE levels for the joint and flower packaging areas and keep the room and stations organized
• Maintain stock of prepped materials to keep production flowing (approximately 10% of time): communicate prep priorities to technicians, stock, build, and maintain empty master case levels, fill in on prep duties such as building boxes, blowing out jars, and inserting freshness seals into lids, and alert leadership when raw packaging supplies are low
• Keep the assigned facility area clean and safe (approximately 10% of time): complete and sign off cleaning checklists, prevent cross-contamination, meet company personal hygiene standards before production activities, keep equipment clean and maintained, and wear PPE when processing material
