ABOUT GOOD ROBOT

We’re a fast-growing beverage manufacturer, wholesaler, and hospitality business based in Nova Scotia. We produce and package our own brands, partner with others through contract manufacturing, and operate vibrant hospitality spaces.

Our mission is simple: To Spread Camaraderie Through Beverage.

Camaraderie isn’t just what happens in our Taprooms; it’s how we work. It’s the way we support each other on the floor, show up for our industry, communicate across departments, and take ownership of the quality that leaves our Beverage Factory.

As we grow, we stay entrepreneurial and scrappy – but are serious about standards.

Across every role, we hold ourselves to 5 behavior standards:

  • Accountability – We own our work and our impact
  • Collaboration – We help teammates win
  • Communication – We speak up clearly and respectfully
  • Professionalism – We show up ready and represent the brand well
  • Problem-Solving – We meet obstacles head-on and move forward

We’re looking for a Machine Operator capable to run our canning line, cartoner and/or sleever. This is a hands-on role in a fast-paced beverage production environment.

If you take pride in clean equipment, tight seams, and problem-solving – keep reading.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Operate and monitor the canning line (CO2 & nitrogen products)
  • Perform CIP (Clean-In-Place) and maintain sanitation standards
  • Conduct seam checks, fill weights checks, and pasteurizer readings
  • Complete packaging line changeovers (standard, sleek, slim formats, various carton formats)
  • Operate related equipment (depalitizer, filler, pasteurizer, fill-level detector, sleever, date coders, cartoner)
  • Accurately complete packaging logs and quality documentation
  • Support overall packaging operations.
  • Communicate with QA/QC techs and the rest of the packaging team
  • Conduct regular maintenances on filler and packaging line

WHAT YOU BRING

  • Experience running production or packaging equipment
  • Forklift/material handling experience
  • Warehouse or manufacturing environment experience
  • Ability to move 25-30 lbs repeatedly
  • Comfortable working in a loud, fast-paced environment
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Strong communication skills
  • Mechanical aptitude
  • Problem-solver

Assets (nice to have):

Forklift certification, WHMIS, Beverage production experience.

WHAT YOU GET

  • Beverage Allowance
  • In-house discounts
  • Co-paid health & wellness benefits
  • A chance to grow with a company that's always evolving - where ideas, problem-solving, and drive to improve inefficiencies are encouraged

THE ENVIRONMENT

This is a physical, active manufacturing role. You’ll be moving and working around mechanical equipment, noise, wet floors, and cleaning chemicals.

Safety and sanitation are non-negotiable.

DIVERSITY

Our goal is to be a diverse workforce that is representative of the communities we serve. We welcome applications from Indigenous People, African Nova Scotians and Other Racially Visible Persons, and Women/Trans folk in occupations or positions where they are under-represented. If you are a member of one of the equity groups, you are encouraged to self-identify on your electronic application IF you are comfortable doing so.

Join our island of misfits at a pivotal moment in our story.
