We believe great processes—and great people—make better candy.
At Kimmie Candy, we’re on the lookout for a Quality Assurance Manager who’s detail-driven, solution-oriented, and comfortable working with others to keep food safety and quality on track. This role is about working alongside our team to support, maintain, and improve quality systems—without needing to carry it all alone.
We’re not looking for a superhero, just someone who understands what good QA looks like and can help us stick to it.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Guide QA Techs in inspections of incoming materials, production runs, and final product checks
- Review product returns for quality concerns and ensure release documentation is complete and accurate
- Conduct pre-op and sanitation inspections in accordance with SSOPs
- Train staff on food safety, quality practices, and regulatory expectations
- Help maintain HACCP, SQF, PCQI, and GMP standards across the plant
- Perform calibration checks, swab tests, and truck inspections
- Stay audit-ready by supporting documentation and process upkeep
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree (preferably in Food Science or similar)
- SQF Practitioner
- PCQI Certified
- 3+ years in QA within food manufacturing
- 2+ years of supervisory experience
- Knowledge of HACCP, SQF, and food safety systems
- Comfort using Microsoft Office, especially Excel
- A calm, steady approach to problem-solving and teamwork
The Team Vibe
This role is part of a broader QA and production team—your job is to support what’s working, help adjust what’s not, and communicate clearly across departments. You’ll be encouraged to ask questions, give input, and be a consistent part of how we maintain food safety every day.
If you’re someone who values structure, likes clear systems, and prefers team-based solutions over top-down directives—we’d love to hear from you.
