  • Check products and pull random samples to monitor quality and consistency.
  • Maintain inventory of all medicated, non-medicated, and raw materials.
  • Maintain correct sanitation for work areas, sanitation logs, checking for any possible health code violations, and mitigating the risk of cross-contamination.
  • Assist with the labeling and packaging of final products when necessary.
  • Perform corrective and preventative maintenance on associated equipment as required to maintain efficient operations.
  • Perform in-process and post-process quality assurance sampling, testing, and visual inspections to ensure all products meet or exceed Verona Collective's specifications and patients' expectations.
  • Record and monitor process conditions to ensure compliance with standard operating procedures.
  • Proper weighing, data recording, and batch tracking throughout Verona Collective's process.
  • Execute tests on required analytical equipment.
  • Complete work orders with precision, including tracking product security, product movement, and compliance checks.
  • Monitor and document process conditions, perform in-process and post-process quality assurance sampling, and carry out visual inspections.
  • Follow strict SOPs for quality control, including random sampling of products to verify consistency, purity, and compliance.
  • Maintain and organize lab materials and inventory for medicated, non-medicated, and raw materials, as well as lab equipment supplies.
  • Sanitize work areas, log sanitation activities, and check for potential health code violations, mitigating the risk of contamination and cross-contamination.
