In this highly visible role, you'll collaborate with engineers, operators, maintenance teams, quality professionals, and subject matter experts to create training programs and technical documentation that support the development of a highly skilled workforce.

- Capture photos, videos, and process documentation to support learning content within our LMS and Adobe Creative Cloud platforms.

- Observe equipment and manufacturing processes to document workflows, identify gaps, and validate operational procedures.
- Standardize training materials, documentation structure, and operator qualification requirements across departments.
- Assist with the creation and review of Job Safety Analysis (JSA) documentation.
- Conduct follow-up evaluations with operators to confirm skill retention and support continuous learning initiatives.
- Research equipment and processes to ensure training materials are current, accurate, and aligned with business needs.
- Manage multiple projects and meet training development milestones in a fast-paced environment.
- Participate in daily project meetings and maintain communication with stakeholders across the organization.
What We're Looking For
Required Qualifications
- Minimum of three years technical writing experience in manufacturing setting
- Experience creating training materials, technical documentation, work instructions, or learning content.
- Highly proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
- Experience using Snagit, Copilot, Adobe Creative Cloud, or similar content development tools.
- Comfortable using an iPad and digital documentation technology.
- Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage shifting priorities and multiple projects.
- Exceptional attention to detail, communication skills, and commitment to accuracy.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in food manufacturing, consumer packaged goods (CPG), food science, pilot plant operations, R&D environments, or other regulated manufacturing industries.
- Background supporting training, quality systems, safety programs, sanitation procedures, or operational excellence initiatives.
- Mechanical aptitude and the ability to understand and document complex manufacturing processes.
- Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams to improve knowledge transfer and workforce development.
