The Role:
As our Dog Breath Sniffer you’ll be responsible for filtering for the best (and worst) smelling dog breath in the city. We need someone brave bold and nosy (literally) to get up close and personal with NYC’s finest canines.

🐶 Collaborate with our canine focus groups and build a team of in-the-field brand ambassadors
🎤 Share your professional scent-sibilities (the world needs to know about your findings)
🦷 Provide real-time feedback to keep dog breath in check
What We're Looking For:
✔️ A strong sense of smell (if you’re a sommelier chocolatier barista or perfumer - you’re perfect!)
✔️ Must love dogs and be willing to get up close and personal with their snoots
✔️ No history of selective smelling - we need brutal honesty here
✔️ Bonus: Experience in canine behavior vet tech or pet wellness (or just an unhealthy obsession with dog breath science)
Perks & Benefits:
🐶 Unlimited dog cuddles (duh!)
🌱 A breath of fresh air - literally thanks to our groundbreaking top-secret formula
💰 Competitive compensation + killer merch
🏢 Fun dog-friendly NYC office (where bad breath is a thing of the past)
