Rosina Food Products is hiring motivated, mechanically inclined individuals to join our team as Machine Operator (B)!

This is an excellent opportunity for individuals who have some manufacturing or machine-operation experience and are looking to develop their technical skills and advance their careers.

As a Machine Operator in Training, you will learn to operate processing, packaging, portioning, conveying, and cooking equipment while maintaining production efficiency, product quality, and food-safety standards.

Instead of applying to multiple Machine Operator positions, candidates can apply once and be considered for the production area that best matches their experience, skills, and our current staffing needs.

Available opportunities include Mixing, Forming, Automated Production and Freezer Operations, and Secondary Packaging.

Depending on your assigned production area, responsibilities may include:

Independently set up, operate, and monitor multiple pieces of manufacturing equipment across similar production lines.

Operate portioning, conveying, cooking, mixing, forming, packaging, and other automated production equipment.

Complete equipment setups, adjustments, and product changeovers according to production requirements.

Maintain product specifications, including weights, shapes, colors, piece counts, temperatures, and appearance.

Perform scheduled quality checks to ensure products meet company and food-safety standards.

Monitor equipment performance, production flow, and product quality to maximize efficiency and minimize waste.

Identify and report mechanical, material, quality, or production issues to the appropriate supervisor.

Complete maintenance work orders when equipment concerns require additional attention.

Assist with coordinating staffing, breaks, and lunch periods to maintain production coverage.

Train and support new Machine Operators as they develop their equipment knowledge and technical skills.

Work with the shift onboarding coordinator to support operator training and development.

Complete all required production, quality, and equipment documentation before the end of each shift.

Communicate effectively with Production, Quality, Sanitation, Maintenance, and associates across shifts.

Maintain a clean, safe, and organized work area and prepare equipment for sanitation as needed.

Follow all USDA, OSHA, GMP, HACCP, and company food-safety requirements.

Ensure proper shift transitions to prevent interruptions in production.

Successful candidates may be assigned to one of the following production areas based on their experience, skills, and current business needs.

Set up and operate industrial mixers, grinders, and ingredient-processing equipment.

Read batch sheets and verify ingredients, weights, and production requirements.

Coordinate staging and preparation of raw materials.

Monitor product consistency, quality, and production efficiency.

Identify and address basic equipment or processing issues.

Support spice-room, mixing, and grinding operations.

Independently set up and operate food-forming and portioning equipment.

Complete equipment adjustments and product changeovers.

Monitor production flow and equipment performance.

Verify product shapes, weights, appearance, and piece counts.

Troubleshoot basic equipment and production concerns.

Assist with training newer operators on equipment procedures.

Operate automated production lines, scales, weighing systems, and conveying equipment.

Monitor product movement through production and freezer operations.

Verify product weights, temperatures, and quality specifications.

Perform equipment adjustments and routine operational checks.

Identify and report mechanical or production concerns.

Support freezer, triangle-line, and automated-equipment operations.

Help maintain production efficiency across multiple pieces of equipment.
