Fortress Nutrition is growing-and we're looking for driven, reliable individuals to join our high-speed Beverage Canning team. If you thrive in a fast-paced manufacturing environment and want a schedule that gives you more balance without sacrificing hours or your paycheck, this is the perfect opportunity for you.

This role is ideal for someone who takes pride in their work, shows up consistently, and wants to be a valuable part of a team that produces high-quality products at scale.
Work 4 days, enjoy a 3-day weekend every week-and if you want extra income, optional overtime is available with opportunities for double pay!


Schedule:
  • Monday - Thursday: 6:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • 3-day weekends (Friday-Sunday)

> Want to pick up extra hours? Overtime may be available on Fridays or weekend days (up to 8-hour max shifts) - always volunteer-based first!

  • Set up, operate, troubleshoot, and maintain high-speed canning line equipment (filler, seamer, packaging, shrink wrapper)
