About the Role

Our Framingham cellar crew keeps the beer moving from fermentation all the way to packaging, and we're looking for a few more players to round out the team!

If you've worked in a brewery, beverage plant, food production facility, or any sanitary manufacturing environment, you already have the foundation we need and we can teach you the rest. We have a culture of continuous improvement and having each other's back. That means that our team is looking for someone who can bring attention to detail, a safety-first mindset, and speak up when they see something wrong. If this is you, we’d love to hear from you!

What You'll Do

Transfer beer and keep fermentation on track
Harvest yeast, handle hops, and dry hop at production scale
Run CIP and pressurized CIP cycles
Operate our centrifuge and process beer
Check quality throughout fermentation and processing
Clean and sanitize tanks, hoses, and equipment
Keep accurate production records
Operate forklifts, pumps, and production equipment
Work through problems with Brewing, Packaging, Quality, and Maintenance

This role gives you the opportunity to expand your experience beyond basic cellar work, including training on:

GEA Westfalia GSC60 centrifuge operation
Braukon CIP systems
Yeast propagation and management
Dry hopping processes
Pressurized CIP
Forklift handling and certification
Quality and production processes in a larger-scale brewery operation

Qualifications

1+ year in brewery, beverage, food, or sanitary manufacturing production
Experience with production equipment, sanitation processes, tanks, pumps, or hoses

Reliable availability for your assigned shift

Preferred Qualifications (but not necessary)

Brewery cellar experience
Experience with CIP, centrifuges, yeast handling, or dry hopping

Climbing stairs and working around tanks
Handling hoses and production equipment
Bending, kneeling, crouching, and working in tight spaces when required
Working in wet, hot, cold, and loud conditions
Working safely around brewing and sanitation chemicals
