- Ensure all finished goods meet strict regulatory and quality standards
- Maintain accurate production records, batch logs, and compliance documentation
- Partner with inventory and fulfillment teams to manage materials, WIP, and finished goods
- Drive process improvements, identify inefficiencies, and help scale operations effectively

✅ What They’re Looking For:
- Hands-on experience in cannabis manufacturing (pre-rolls, vapes, flower)
- Proven ability to lead, train, and motivate teams in a production setting
- Strong understanding of compliance, quality control, and regulated workflows
- Experience in startup or high-growth environments is a major plus
