Job Description

You’re the last line of defense between a safe, delicious product and a costly recall. As a  Quality Technician on the 1st shift in Grand Rapids, you’ll patrol five production lines, performing hourly checks, logging results, and flagging any issues—whether it’s a mislabel, allergen risk, or sanitation lapse. It’s fast-paced, detail-heavy, and mission-critical. If you’ve ever caught a typo in a recipe and thought, “That’s not right,” this job’s for you. Bonus: no need to binge-watch food safety documentaries—you’ll be living one.

This Grand Rapids facility is part of a large-scale food manufacturing network producing snacks, baked goods, and packaged foods for major brands across North America. With over 27 locations and a reputation for quality and speed, they’re a behind-the-scenes powerhouse in the food industry.
