More Than Just A Job
The goal is simple: to make healthy eating easy. To do this, we need your support in building a scalable and maintainable Rails ecosystem. If you would like to join one of the UK’s fastest growing scale-ups and make a positive impact on people's lives, then we would love to speak with you.
As a proud B-Corp, we focus on using business as a force for good. We do this by balancing people and planet with profit. For every recipe box bought, we donate the equivalent of a school meal to a less developed country (over 10 million meals donated and counting...) and we have also pledged to go Net Zero by 2030, but there are so many other initiatives that we would love to tell you about!
What We Are Looking For
As our new SRE, you will be joining one of the fastest growing departments in Mindful Chef, answering the tricky questions and working on some of the most interesting (and difficult) challenges in the organization. You will likely be someone who is happy working in a fast-paced environment, has excellent communication and collaboration skills, and a genuine desire to make an impact. Of course, you are a foodie.
