Service Technician (Food Manufacturing)
At Andriani Ltd., we are not just making pasta — we are redefining it. As a leading manufacturer of gluten-free pasta, we combine innovation, quality, and sustainability to create products that meet the needs of modern consumers without compromising on taste or nutrition.
Andriani began in 2009 with a specific idea: to innovate the sector for pasta production and sale, creating a product that was naturally gluten-free and healthy, with a unique flavour and a variety of new ingredients (rice, corn, quinoa, buckwheat, amaranth, lentils and peas). Now in our startup phase in Canada, we are building a dynamic team to help launch and grow our North American operations. If you are excited by the idea of joining a purpose-driven company at the ground level, where your work truly makes an impact, Andriani could be the perfect fit.
