Looking for advice on working in the industry

Hi, Im a 20-year-old food science undergrad in Ireland. I have spent the last two years studying while working in the brewing industry as a production brewer and QC analyst. That industry has broken my back, and the pay isn't great, leading to me losing motivation in my studies and a downturn in my mental health. I've always found thc research interesting, especially since I started studying hops in brewing and after speaking to some more brewers in Ireland, Ive decided not to get into the craft beer industry. I wanted to ask for advice on what the job opportunities would be like if I was aiming to immigrate to after completing a Msc in Biochemistry and Plant Genomics in UCD. Id be happy enough to move anywhere in the US or Canada for work and assuming I got relevant certificates in local and national regulatory policy and safety standards I was wondering what kind of work would be available to me, what oppurtunities for advancement would be there, what the pay might look like and whether people feel that the industry as a whole is in an ok place as that not being the case is one of the main reasons im leaving craft beer. Any responses or help would be appreciate, thank you for your time :)
