- Monitor plant health and quickly correct nutrient, pest, or environmental issues
- Train, manage, and hold cultivation staff accountable to SOPs and KPIs
- Track and report performance metrics (yield per light, cost per gram, cycle time, waste)
- Ensure full compliance with OLCC regulations, tracking, and audit readiness
- Maintain accurate records in METRC and internal cultivation logs
- Coordinate with post-harvest, compliance, and leadership teams
- Manage nutrient, supply, and equipment inventory

- Data-driven decision maker with strong documentation habits
Preferred Experience
- Indoor LED or HPS production at scale
- SOP development and team training programs
- Experience turning around underperforming rooms or facilities
- Oregon commercial cannabis market experience strongly preferred
