Packaging Machine Operators/Sanitor are critical to our success at FritoLay! Packaging Machine Operators are responsible for setting up and operating assigned packaging machines and statistical scales to pack the optimum number of quality packages of product. Although you will start out working for FritoLay, we are investing in helping you grow with us. This job can open the door to career opportunities with us or our parent company, PepsiCo. In this role, here are some of the frequent tasks you will be doing after receiving training:

As a PMO some frequent tasks include:

  • Set-up and operate multiple packaging machines to ensure accurate code dates, weights, and that products are put into appropriate bags
  • Check that products are dated and sealed with minimum amount of waste
  • Maintain a clean and safe work area for all product

  • Wiping down metal conveyors, as well as cleaning the machine itself
  • Working with strong, corrosive chemicals, hot water, and cleaning agents
  • Maintaining and cleaning all buildings and some outside landscaping
