About PepsiCo

Employing nearly 10,000 workers across Canada and recognized among the country's 100 Best Employers, PepsiCo (Frito-Lay) brings together some of the world's most renowned and respected brands. We pride ourselves on conducting business the right way, integrating social responsibility into our core strategy. At our state-of-the-art facility in Levis, Quebec, we're seeking a dedicated Fryer Operator (Corn) to join our dynamic and motivated team. This full-time summer position (NHD 2026) offers hands-on experience in a leading food and beverage production environment.

Role Overview

As a Fryer Operator (Corn) at PepsiCo's Levis plant, you'll play a vital role in our high-volume snack production lines. This seasonal full-time position involves operating advanced corn frying lines, ensuring seamless transitions to packaging, and maintaining top-tier quality standards. Working Monday through Friday across rotating day, evening, and night shifts, you'll earn a competitive $26.00 per hour plus premiums of $0.85 to $1.15. Ideal for mechanically inclined individuals comfortable with technology, this role combines practical production skills with opportunities to contribute to iconic brands like our popular chip varieties.

Why This Role Stands Out

Step into a fast-paced environment where cutting-edge technology meets traditional manufacturing excellence. You'll handle everything from equipment operation to quality assurance, gaining valuable experience in the food industry that's transferable across PepsiCo's global operations.

Key Responsibilities

Your day-to-day will keep our production humming efficiently:

• Operate corn or potato lines through to packaging transitions with precision.
• Leverage new technologies to control production equipment effectively.
• Input and monitor computer parameters to optimize line quality and efficiency.
• Perform essential math calculations to complete process specification sheets accurately.
• Execute quality tests to ensure all products meet PepsiCo's rigorous standards.
• Maintain high machine yields for maximum productivity.
• Clean and sanitize equipment during flavor changeovers to uphold hygiene.
• Adhere strictly to government environmental protection regulations.

Qualifications & Requirements

We're looking for proactive team players who thrive in production settings:

• Comfortable and willing to use computers and emerging technologies.
• Strong mechanical aptitude for troubleshooting and operating machinery.
• Availability for flexible shifts: day, evening, and night, Monday to Friday.
• Basic math skills for process documentation and quality control.
• Commitment to safety, quality, and environmental compliance.

No prior experience required—training provided—but a passion for manufacturing and reliability are key.

Benefits & Perks

PepsiCo values its team with industry-leading perks:

• Base pay of $26.00/hour + shift premiums ($0.85-$1.15) for enhanced earnings.
• On-site employee store offering chips and snacks at discounted prices.
• Full group insurance: medical coverage post-probation, dental after one year.
• Telemedicine services accessible to you and your family anytime.
• Pension fund and RRSP options for long-term financial security.
• Reimbursement for safety shoes or boots provided by the employer.

Career Growth

This summer role is a launchpad into PepsiCo's vast career ecosystem. Excel as a Fryer Operator, and doors open to permanent positions, supervisory roles, or specialized tracks in maintenance, quality control, or operations management. With internal training programs and leadership development, PepsiCo invests in your future—many of our Levis leaders started on the production floor. Leverage our global network for advancement across Canada's 10,000+ workforce.
