Job Description

About Imperfect:Founded in 2015, Imperfect Foods, a Certified B CorporationTM (B CorpTM), is the leading online grocer at the forefront of eliminating food waste and building a better food system. We work directly with farmers and producers to rescue, redistribute, and develop goods across multiple grocery categories, and to date have rescued more than 150 million pounds of food from lesser outcomes. Our customers enjoy a customizable service that is more affordable and more environmentally friendly than the average trip to the grocery store.
Mission: At Imperfect Foods, we're on a mission to eliminate food waste and build a better food system for everyone.

We have heaps of interesting problems to solve around customer experience, logistics, supply chain, and scale. We’re looking for an experienced software engineer to help us take the work out of grocery shopping by building delightfully functional web and mobile experiences.
Our technology stack currently consists of React on the frontend, React-Native for our Mobile Apps, and a mix of Node and F# in a microservices backend. Data persistence is handled by PostgreSQL and Snowflake, and messaging by RabbitMQ and Kafka. We believe in building expertise in a relatively small set of modern but mature tools. We’re a remote-first team with members throughout the US.
This position will be joining the Shopping team. Shopping is responsible for the frontend interface of Imperfect’s virtual storefront across our web and native mobile platforms, as well as the backend systems that power these interfaces. The Shopping team’s vision is to craft an intuitive, delightful and effortless shopping experience.
