Full Job Description

Production & Safety Manager

About Sunsoil

We are on a mission to bring real plant medicine to all who need it.

We founded Sunsoil to affect positive change through our products and our actions. We also pioneered a better way to make CBD oil: whole plant infusion. We did this so that we could set the standard in the hemp economy. Our natural method of infusion yields a premium CBD oil while keeping costs down, allowing us to produce CBD more efficiently than anyone else in the country.

Sunsoil was founded in 2015 by childhood friends, Alejandro Bergad and Jacob Goldstein, who share a passion for agriculture, Vermont, and the hemp plant. For us, it is all about producing the highest quality full-spectrum hemp products on the market at the greatest value. High-quality means starting with Vermont-grown certified organic hemp, an infusion method where we use organic coconut oil instead of CO2 or harsh solvents, and testing at three different ISO-accredited labs to guarantee consistent quality.
