About this role

This role is about more than running a packaging line - it’s about taking ownership of the final product and supporting the team that brings it to life.

We’re looking for someone who takes pride in doing things the right way, stays steady under pressure, and looks for ways to make the whole operation better - not just their piece of it.

You don’t need to know every piece of equipment on day one. We can teach the systems. What matters most is how you think - attention to detail, consistency, and a mindset geared toward improvement. If you enjoy dialing in systems, catching small details others miss, and making things run better over time - you’ll do well here.

Packaging Operations

  • Set up, operate, and break down canning and bottling lines
  • Execute smooth changeovers and ensure materials are staged and ready
  • Monitor runs and make real-time adjustments to maintain quality and efficiency
  • Coordinate closely with the cellar team to keep product flowing

Quality & Standards

  • Perform or oversee  routine QC checks (fill weights, seams, DO, carbonation, visual quality)
  • Maintain accurate documentation and ensure all product meets standards
  • Take ownership of the final product - nothing leaves the line that shouldn’t

Troubleshooting & Improvement

  • Identify and resolve mechanical and process issues during runs to minimize downtime
  • Perform basic maintenance and escalate larger issues as needed
  • Continuously look for ways to improve efficiency and reduce product loss

Team & Workflow

  • Support packout and help keep the line running smoothly
  • Maintain a clean, organized workspace throughout and after runs
  • Step in wherever needed - we operate as a team

Inventory & Tracking

  • Accurately tTrack packaging materials and communicate inventory needs
  • Record finished goods volumes and maintain accurate production data

What Sets You Apart

  • You’re detail-oriented and take pride in doing things right
  • You naturally look for ways to improve systems and processes
  • You’re reliable, proactive, and follow through
  • You think like an owner, not just an operator
  • You stay calm, focused, and solution-oriented under pressure

Experience

  • Experience in packaging, manufacturing, or brewing is preferred
  • Not required - we’re willing to train the right person with the right mindset
  • Competitive pay
  • Health/Dental/Vision Insurance plans with company contribution
  • Employee discounts across brands
  • Full-Time set schedule
  • Room for growth in responsibility + pay

Pay: $20-$22/hr (Depending on level of experience)
