About The Position

We’re a fast-growing dietary supplement manufacturer operating under 21 CFR 111 , and we’re looking for a hands-on QA/QC professional who enjoys building and improving systems —not just maintaining what already exists. This role blends day-to-day QA/QC execution (receiving/in-process/final review, holds/releases, documentation) with quality system development (SOP/MMR/BPR improvements, supplier qualification, CAPA discipline, and training). You’ll work closely with Quality leadership to tighten processes, reduce errors, and raise the “inspection-ready” standard over time. You won’t be expected to own everything on day one—but you should be comfortable stepping into a growing environment where we’re actively getting better and need someone who can help create structure and make it stick.
