Data Logger Analyst – HACCP/Temperature Tracking

The Junior Data Logger Analyst supports temperature tracking and compliance monitoring by managing data logging devices and ensuring accurate, traceable records for HACCP-critical control points (CCPs). This role is essential in maintaining food safety compliance, particularly for time-temperature-sensitive products.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Data Logger Setup & Monitoring

• Deploy and retrieve temperature/humidity data loggers across cold rooms, ovens, chillers, freezers, transport vehicles, and production zones.

• Ensure proper placement, calibration checks, and logger activation for each batch or process.

2. Data Collection & Analysis

• Download and review logger data using appropriate software (e.g., Testo, Elitech, LogTag, MadgeTech).

• Flag any deviations from HACCP-set limits and escalate issues to QA or operations teams.

3. Documentation & Traceability

• Maintain accurate logs and digital records of logger data for audit trails and food safety documentation.

• Help organize data for HACCP plans, temperature mapping studies, and validation exercises.

4. Support for HACCP Audits

• Assist in preparing data and records for internal, customer, or regulatory audits.

• Participate in investigations of non-compliances or excursions related to time-temperature controls.

5. Equipment Maintenance & Calibration

• Perform routine calibration verification on data loggers and ensure they are in good working order.

• Tag and report any faulty or expired devices for repair or replacement.

Key Focus Areas:

• Temperature data collection & validation for HACCP compliance

• Use and maintenance of data logging equipment (e.g., Testo, Elitech, LogTag)

• CCP monitoring in cold/hot zones and during logistics

• Recordkeeping and traceability for audits and inspections

• Root cause support for deviations and temperature excursions

• Cross-functional communication with QA, production, maintenance, and food safety teams

Qualifications:

• Diploma or Bachelor’s degree in Food Technology, Microbiology, Instrumentation, or a related field

• 0–2 years of experience in data logging, food safety, QA, or cold chain monitoring

• Familiarity with HACCP principles, FSMS, and temperature control systems

• Basic understanding of data logger software and report generation

• Attention to detail and commitment to food safety protocols
