Who We Are Looking For
Reporting to the Central QA Manager, the Central Quality Assurance Specialist plays a critical role in maintaining the systems, certifications, and documentation that support food safety and regulatory compliance.
This position operates at the intersection of commercialization, quality, and plant operations—ensuring that product requirements, certification standards, and regulatory expectations are accurately translated into execution on the production floor. You will oversee certification programs, support HACCP and audit readiness, and maintain the quality systems that ensure every product meets customer and regulatory expectations.
What You’ll Gain
Direct impact on food safety and compliance
Quality and food safety are foundational to our operation.

With a high percentage of production requiring kosher compliance, your work will directly protect product integrity and customer trust.
Cross-functional exposure
This role provides visibility across commercialization, product development, and manufacturing. You’ll partner closely with cross-functional teams to ensure specifications, certifications, and regulatory requirements are effectively executed on the plant floor.

What You Bring
- Education & credentials
Bachelor’s degree in Food Science, Food Safety, or related field (or equivalent experience). HACCP certification required; PCQI certification preferred or willingness to obtain. - Technical knowledge
Experience with HACCP, BRC, or GFSI-based standards, along with regulatory compliance and certification programs. Experience with specialty claims (e.g., organic, kosher) strongly preferred. - Ownership mindset
