Job Description

COMPANY DESCRIPTION
At Dona, we craft tea concentrates, loose leaf tea, and herbal blends. Our quality begins with our ingredients. We source spices from collectives across the world, paying attention to place of origin, growing conditions, and end quality. Each spice is cupped to test for flavor profile, natural sweetness, and body. Our brewing process begins with whole spices that are ground fresh per batch. Then, our spices are slow-steeped to build complexity. The result is a full-bodied and perfectly balanced drink.

JOB DESCRIPTION
We are looking for a few new DONA team members to join our small but mighty production team. You will work with our Brewery Lead and our Filling Line Lead to assist in the prep, production, filling, and packaging of our full line of spice focused beverages. You will learn our entire production process from start to finish, including (but definitely not limited to): brewing, filling, and packaging our liquid concentrates; blending and batching loose leaf tea and herbal blends; and palletizing finished product for our national and international customers.
