Role Summary
We are seeking a hands-on Quality Systems Supervisor to lead the daily operations of our Quality Assurance and Quality Control teams. Reporting to the Director of Quality, this role serves as the tactical quality anchor on the plant floor, translating the strategic quality roadmap into consistent execution. You will supervise shift inspectors, manage documentation workflows, maintain inspection and audit readiness, and build a culture of compliance, accountability, and safety.
Key Responsibilities
Quality Systems & Certification Leadership: Support day-to-day maintenance of SQF certification, the Costco Addendum, NSF/ANSI 455-2 requirements, and customer-specific programs. Monitor floor compliance with specialized certification schemes as the business grows, including organic, kosher, halal, gluten-free, and NSF Certified for Sport.
Audit Readiness & CAPA: Serve as the secondary point of contact and facility tour lead for third-party, customer, and regulatory audits and inspections. Execute internal and mock audits and gap analyses; lead initial investigations and root cause analyses; and support timely closure of corrective and preventive actions.
Food Safety & SQF Program Execution: Verify daily implementation of the Food Safety Plan, HACCP/HARPC programs, sanitary controls, allergen controls, sanitation verification, environmental monitoring, and pest management. Support the SQF Practitioner of record and participate as a core member of the Food Safety Team.
Quality Assurance & Document Control: Oversee real-time document control, change control, batch record review, and data-integrity practices. Evaluate deviations, non-conformances, and material quarantines, provide data-backed hold/release recommendations to the Director, and partner with shift supervisors to resolve manufacturing-line issues.
Quality Control & Laboratory Oversight: Verify that raw material, in-process, and finished product attributes meet established internal and customer specifications.
Team Leadership & Development: Build, schedule, and lead a high-performing shift organization of QA/QC specialists, technicians, and inspectors. Set clear expectations, track shift-specific KPIs, conduct performance reviews and one-on-ones, and coach team members through compliance troubleshooting, non-conformance logs, and line-clearance decisions.
Cross-Functional Partnership & NPI Support: Coordinate with Operations, Supply Chain, and R&D to ensure quality expectations are clear and practical. Gather technical data for customer complaints, technical reviews, and onboarding requests, and provide hands-on quality and food-safety oversight for new product introductions.
Compliance, Risk & Continuous Improvement: Enforce 21 CFR Part 111, FSMA, and state manufacturing requirements on the production floor. Identify and mitigate quality and food safety risks across blending and packaging, and improve right-first-time yields, deviation closure speed, and release cycle time.
