Afresh is on a mission to eliminate food waste and make fresh food accessible to all. Our first A.I.-powered solution optimizes ordering, forecasting, and store operations for fresh food departments in brick-and-mortar grocers. With our Fresh Operating System, regional and national grocery retailers have placed $1.6 billion in produce orders across the US and we've helped our partners prevent 34 million pounds of food from going to waste. Working at Afresh represents a one-of-a-kind opportunity to have massive social impact at scale by leveraging uncommonly impactful software – we hope you'll join us!

About the Role

The Product Engineering team at Afresh is responsible for building out the suite of products that our customers use every day, whether it’s an individual produce manager looking to order their store’s groceries for the day, corporate supervisors looking to view individual store performance, or everything in between. Grocers rely on these solutions within Afresh’s Fresh Operating System to improve the accuracy and efficiency of their workflows, all contributing to our goal of reducing food waste.

You will be playing a key role in building out these solutions for our customers. Our team and products are growing at a rapid pace, which means that there will be plenty of opportunities for ownership and making your impact felt. Some of your responsibilities will include:

  • Directly impact our mission of reducing fresh food waste by working on products to enable grocers to better manage and optimize fresh food merchandising and supply chain
  • Own and build exciting 0 to 1 features on our brand new React Native mobile application that will have a massive impact on our business
  • Scale our React Native mobile application from just a small handful of users up to our entire customer base
  • Build tools and foundation, such as design systems, to empower multiple teams of engineers and designers to build and iterate on our React Native mobile application
  • Partner with our product and design teams to deliver rich and engaging user experiences

Skills and Experience

  • BS in Computer Science or equivalent experience
  • 2+ years working on production level React Native mobile applications. Bonus points if you can show us an app that’s live on the Apple/Google Play app store!
  • Knowledge and experience with Javascript and GraphQL (in addition to React Native). Ability to be comfortable help debug issues on the backend is a plus.
  • Experience with Native Android (Java/Kotlin) and iOS (Swift) is a plus.
  • Experience with independently owning and driving medium to large-sized projects, and delivering high quality results.
  • Demonstrated capacity to dive into ambiguous technical problems and compare tradeoffs on solutions.
  • Demonstrated skills to be able to clearly and concisely communicate with both engineering and cross-functional partners on our product and design teams.
