Food Manufacturing Sanitation Operator

About

ByHeart was built on the belief that infant formula should be held to a higher standard. We spent seven years developing an evidence-based formula from the ground up, running the largest clinical trial by a new infant formula brand in 25 years, and building our own manufacturing facilities. ByHeart is a nutrition company, specializing in infant formula, committed to the highest manufacturing and safety standards in the industry — now expanding that same standard across a broader range of nutrition products. We own three domestic U.S. facilities and have invested heavily in infrastructure, R&D, and in-house quality systems, able to provide third-party incubation and manufacturing support for leading ingredient and end-product nutrition brands. We are now actively expanding operations at our Allerton, Iowa facility. Our factory is running and we are focused on scaling our manufacturing to support a broader range of dairy nutrition products. This is a new and growing chapter for the facility and we're hiring the people who will help us build it.
