The posting

About Mason's Meats

We make premium beef jerky and meat snacks using a deliberately simple approach: high-quality beef and sea salt. No additives. No sugar. No nonsense. At our core, Mason's Meats is about a return to real food in a world increasingly filled with unnecessary ingredients, fillers, and shortcuts. We believe great meat products should start with great ingredients and be made properly.

We're now bringing Mason's Meats to the U.S. and establishing our production operation in Austin, Texas. Our Austin team will play a hands-on role in shaping the systems, standards, and culture that will support the business as it grows. We're looking for people who take pride in doing things properly and enjoy working as part of a small team.

The Role

As the Food Safety & Quality Manager / HACCP Coordinator, you'll own the food safety and quality systems for our Austin beef jerky operation.

You’ll work closely with production and company leadership to build practical, scalable systems that support safe, consistent production as the Austin operation grows. This is an opportunity to shape the site’s food safety culture, controls, and operating standards from an early stage.

This hands-on, plant-floor role covers HACCP, process validation, verification, documentation, USDA/FSIS readiness, and day-to-day quality oversight. You'll have the authority to place product on hold whenever food safety, quality, or compliance is in question.

Key Responsibilities

• HACCP & Food Safety Systems: Develop, maintain, verify, and reassess HACCP plans, hazard analyses, SSOPs, prerequisite programs, and supporting controlled documents.

• Process Validation: Coordinate validation and supporting documentation for lethality, drying, water activity, shelf stability, and other required process controls.

• Quality & Compliance: Review food safety, sanitation, quality, and production records; investigate deviations; manage corrective actions; and make product hold and release decisions.

• Traceability & Recall: Maintain supplier, receiving, lot, label, and finished-product traceability controls and lead mock recalls.

• Sanitation & Verification: Maintain pre-operational sanitation verification, chemical control, environmental monitoring, and applicable calibration programs.

• USDA/FSIS Readiness: Keep required records organized and inspection-ready and serve as a primary food safety contact during regulatory activities.

• Training: Train employees on GMPs, HACCP responsibilities, sanitation, traceability, product holds, and food safety recordkeeping.

Requirements

• Demonstrated food safety or quality experience in meat processing, food manufacturing, or a closely related industry.

• Working knowledge of HACCP, GMPs, SSOPs, sanitation, corrective actions, and traceability.

• Strong documentation, organizational, communication, and analytical skills, with close attention to detail.

• Comfort working directly on a production floor and making product hold or escalation decisions.

• Ability to train employees and consistently reinforce food safety standards.

• Must obtain a current food handler certificate within the required timeframe after hire.

Desirable Skills

• Experience in a USDA/FSIS-inspected meat or poultry facility, including working directly with USDA inspection personnel.

• Experience with ready-to-eat meat, jerky, dried meat, or shelf-stable food.

• Formal HACCP training applicable to meat processing.

• Experience with water activity, process validation, environmental monitoring, or shelf-life programs.

Work Environment & Physical Requirements

• Regular walking, standing, and hands-on observation across raw and ready-to-eat production and sanitation areas.

• Occasional work in refrigerated areas and around raw beef, production equipment, and sanitation chemicals.

• Required food safety and task-specific PPE must be worn when applicable.

Benefits

• Performance-based bonus

• Health, dental, and vision insurance

• Life insurance

• Long-term disability insurance

• 20 days of paid time off, plus paid company holidays

• Opportunity to grow with the company

• Complimentary Mason’s products

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
