Take the next step in your cannabis manufacturing career. As a Manufacturing Technician II, you’ll operate and maintain the equipment behind Sinse Cannabis’s extraction, distillation, and infused-product lines — turning raw biomass into the concentrates, oils, and formulations that stock dispensary shelves across Missouri. This is a hands-on, higher-level production role with one of the state’s leading vertically integrated cannabis companies, where your technical skill and attention to detail directly shape product quality.
You’ll work hands-on with Hydrocarbon Extraction, Ethanol Extraction, Distillation, and Centrifuge systems, following cGMP guidelines and standardized formulas to keep production running safely and efficiently.

  • Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safety guidelines at all times.
  • Handle and store chemicals safely, following all regulatory requirements.
Team & Continuous Improvement
  • Collaborate with team members across departments to achieve production targets and resolve issues.
  • Assist in the implementation of process improvements and support investigations as needed.
  • Use logical, effective problem-solving to make quick, quality decisions.
  • Perform other duties as assigned by leadership, staying flexible to the needs of the department and business.
     
What We're Looking For
  • High school diploma or equivalent; associate degree or certification in a mechanical or chemistry-related field preferred.
  • Previous experience in a cannabis or manufacturing environment is a plus.
  • Knowledge of chemical processes and equipment operation, with strong mechanical aptitude.
  • Strong attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and good hand-eye coordination.
  • Awareness of FDA, NFPA, and OSHA requirements.
  • Excellent communication and organizational skills, with the ability to work well in a team-oriented environment.
  • Must be at least 21 years of age.
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a State Agent ID.
     
Physical Requirements
  • Ability to perform repetitive tasks for long periods of time.
  • Ability to lift and move heavy objects and work in various environmental conditions.
  • Must be willing to wear a variety of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as needed.
  • Must be able to work indoors and outdoors with exposure to mechanical/moving parts and hazards including flammable liquids, gas, dust, dirt, pollen, odors, and irritants.
