Quality Control Technician

QC Technician Position Summary

The Quality Control (QC) Technician is a leadership role within the production environment responsible for proactively ensuring that all products, processes, and personnel consistently meet Treasure Mills’ quality and food safety standards.

This position requires a strong floor presence and the authority to enforce compliance with SQF, HACCP, GMP, allergen control, and company policies. The QC Technician’s role is preventative — ensuring standards are followed in real time rather than identifying issues after production is complete.

• Verify that employees are consistently following GMP, allergen control, sanitation, and operational procedures in real time
• Intervene immediately when non-compliance is observed to prevent product risk or deviation

• Responsible for proactive identification and prevention of quality risks
• Accountable for ensuring compliance with established food safety systems

• 2–3 years of experience in food manufacturing quality control (bakery experience preferred)
