We are currently seeking an Extraction Lab Technician to join our team at the Oneida Indian Nation's 50,000-square-foot cannabis grow facility in Verona, NY. As an Extraction Technician, you will play a hands-on role in supporting the daily operations of our cannabis extraction lab. Working closely with the Lab Manager and your team, you'll help carry out key steps in extracting, filtration, distillation, and processing premium cannabis products, adhering to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and regulatory guidelines. This role will involve preparing materials, monitoring equipment, ensuring cleanliness in the lab, and following strict quality control measures to produce high-quality cannabis extracts.

    • Carry out all extraction, extract processing, product formulation, filling, and manufacturing procedures safely and efficiently while maintaining the strict laws and guidelines set by the Oneida Cannabis Commission to ensure all products are manufactured within the confines of the law.
    • Follow appropriate control measures to prevent the mixing of dissimilar production components while following Current Good Manufacturing Practices.

    Filtration & Purification: Perform critical filtration steps to maintain extract purity.
    • Utilize Buchner filters, trolley filters, and cryogenic freezers for winterization and post-extraction refinement.
    • Assist with chromatography and vacuum flash chromatography for cannabinoid isolation and purification.

    Distillation Support: Aid in the distillation process for producing high-purity distilled concentrates.
    • Operate and maintain rolled film and wipe film units under guidance, performing regular cleaning, setup, and maintenance.

    Processing & Product Refinement: Contribute to product finishing steps to ensure extract quality.
    • Perform vacuum purging, crystallization, and secondary processing to stabilize and enhance products.
    • Meeting set production deadlines by working efficiently with a sense of urgency.
    • Continually strive to improve Verona Collective's processes for improved patient safety, quality, and efficient manufacturing
    • Support new product and process development work with our Process/Product Development team.

    Documentation & Compliance: Maintain accurate records to comply with cannabis regulations and SOPs.
    • Ensure compliance and accuracy involving all product tracking, product security, and product movement procedures.
    • Check products and pull random samples to monitor quality and consistency.
    • Maintain inventory of all medicated, non-medicated, and raw materials.
    • Maintaining correct sanitation for work areas, sanitation logs, checking for any possible health code violations, and mitigating the risk of cross-contamination.
    • Assist with the labeling and packaging of final products when necessary.
    • Perform corrective and preventative maintenance on associated equipment as required to maintain efficient operations.
    • Perform in-process and post-process quality assurance sampling, testing, and visual inspections to ensure all products meet or exceed Verona Collective's specifications and patients' expectations; such quality assurance work shall include, but not limited to:
      • Record and monitor process conditions to ensure compliance with standard operating procedures.
      • Proper weighing, data recording, and batch tracking throughout Verona Collective's process
      • Execute tests on required analytical equipment.
    • Complete work orders with precision, including tracking product security, product movement, and compliance checks.
    • Monitor and document process conditions, perform in-process and post-process quality assurance sampling, and carry out visual inspections.
    • Follow strict SOPs for quality control, including random sampling of products to verify consistency, purity, and compliance.

    Inventory & Sanitation: Ensure lab cleanliness and inventory control.
    • Maintain and organize lab materials and inventory for medicated, non-medicated, and raw materials, as well as lab equipment supplies.
    • Sanitize work areas, log sanitation activities, and check for potential health code violations, mitigating the risk of contamination and cross-contamination.

    Equipment Maintenance: Conduct routine and preventive maintenance to ensure efficient lab operations.
    • Perform corrective and preventative maintenance on extraction and lab equipment as required.
    • Support troubleshooting and equipment calibration tasks to minimize downtime and maintain operational efficiency.

Requirements:
  • Must be 21 years or older
