As the Extraction Technician, you will work closely with lab leadership to support day-to-day solventless extraction and production operations. You'll help stage and run washes using cold water to separate trichomes, manage freeze-dry cycles, and press premium rosin, maintaining terpene integrity and consistent quality in a high-throughput environment. You'll follow and help refine SOPs, keep accurate digital batch records, and ensure the lab remains clean, organized, and compliant. Comfort setting up, operating, and maintaining solventless equipment—wash vessels, chillers, freeze dryers, presses, and related systems—is essential. The ideal candidate is technically astute with mechanical, electrical, and computer-operated systems used in production settings; proactive, quick-thinking, and exceptionally detail-oriented. Hands-on cannabis solventless/rosin experience is required. An associate's degree in chemistry, biochemistry, or a related field is welcome, or you may substitute equivalent industry experience.
