Steven Moussawer

Operator who runs the program he built Beacon to manage

Steven runs the food safety program at an SQF-certified manufacturing facility in Michigan, and he uses Beacon every day to manage it. He built the platform to run his own program first, which is why its workflows match how a plant actually operates, not how a product team pictures it.

Why he built Beacon

He needed it himself first

Software alone does not pass an audit. People and processes do. Beacon exists to make the program visible and traceable, so nothing rests on one person remembering where a record lives.

Steven has spent 17 years building businesses and 25 years in technology. He runs the food safety program at an SQF-certified tahini manufacturing facility in Michigan, where he is the person responsible for keeping the program current and ready for an audit.

He knows the failure mode firsthand: paper binders, scattered spreadsheets, and a whole program resting on a single person who already wears five other hats. Nothing on the market worked the way his facility actually operates.

So he built Beacon to run his own program, then opened it to other operators. Every CCP log, every corrective action, every approval step started as a real problem on a real floor, not a line item on a roadmap.

Built by an operator. Designed and tested at a working SQF-certified facility.

Where his perspective shows up

The operator's view is built into the product

Steven leads how Beacon works for the people who run a program day to day. The same floor-level view shapes the platform, the writing, and how the team builds.
