About the role

As a Cultivation Technician at Sinse Cannabis, you’ll work hands-on with cannabis plants at every stage of production — from propagation and canopy management through harvest, post-harvest trimming, and packaging support. This is a cross-functional, cross-trained role: you’ll develop real expertise across the full indoor cannabis grow cycle, with exposure to cultivation, harvest, and post-harvest processing departments.

Responsibilities

  • Monitor cultivation and post-harvest areas daily — irrigation, environmental conditions, pest management (IPM), and overall crop quality
  • Execute plant care tasks including propagation, transplanting, pruning, trellising, and harvesting per established SOPs
  • Absorb post-harvest processing: bucking/destemming, trimming, sorting, and preparation for drying, curing, and packaging
  • Conduct quality control checks during and after harvest to ensure product meets company standards
  • Maintain accurate METRC/ERP data entry; assist with plant tagging, batch tracking, and inventory movements
  • Support waste handling and destruction in compliance with Missouri cannabis regulations
  • Uphold strict sanitation and biosecurity protocols — cleaning and disinfecting tools, equipment, and work areas routinely
  • Transport plants and plant material throughout the facility for transplanting, room loading, harvesting, and processing
  • Assist with facility setup and maintenance, including trellis installation, rack moves, and multi-tier cultivation system support
  • Accurately complete task tracking and production records per company and regulatory requirements
  • Collaborate with team members and management on crop status, workflow, and operational needs
  • Support facility-wide projects including deep cleans, room resets, and preventative maintenance

Requirements

  • High school diploma or GED required
  • Must be at least 21 years of age and eligible to obtain a Missouri Cannabis Agent ID
  • Prior experience in horticulture, indoor growing, or cannabis cultivation is a plus — but not required
  • Strong attention to detail and clear, team-oriented communication skills
  • Solid work ethic and genuine eagerness to learn in a fast-paced production environment
  • Ability to perform repetitive tasks for extended periods while standing
  • Physical ability to lift up to 75 lbs; bend, climb, and work above shoulder height; push carts and wheelbarrows; maneuver in confined spaces
  • Comfortable wearing PPE and working alongside automation equipment
  • Availability to work overtime, weekends, and holidays as needed
