Job Description

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

  • Directly impact our mission of reducing fresh food waste by working on our backend data and machine learning platform that uses massive amounts of grocery store data to make ordering recommendations
  • Build out our backend data platform as well as supporting tooling to process tens of billions of historical data points collected from tens of thousands of retail stores and beyond
  • Support developer experience for our wider engineering organization across functions and teams
  • Leverage modern data analysis and processing frameworks, programming languages, and tooling—such as Apache Spark, Pandas, Python, and SQL—to provide powerful compute capabilities to our data platform
  • Scale our data backends that leverage a combination of traditional databases, data warehouses, and data lakes to support varying access patterns
  • Scale up your impact by leading technical projects, participating in technical and design decisions, mentoring engineers, and participating in recruiting functions
  • Act as an exemplar for our culture of excellence, curiosity, collaboration, proactivity, candor, humility, and kindness

 

Skills and experience

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • BS in Computer Science or equivalent experience
  • Outstanding programming skills with deep knowledge of databases, distributed systems, data structures, and backend concepts
  • Deep customer empathy and ability to orient projects to maximize business impact.
  • Demonstrated ability to design, build, deploy, and manage large production compute or data backend platforms at scale
  • Experience using modern big data frameworks, scaling computation to hundreds of machines; preference for Spark, Databricks and DBT
  • Experience supporting data integrations and strong ability to reason about complex data models and data transformations
  • Demonstrated ability to triage and solve open-ended, ambiguous systems-level problems
  • Collaborative attitude while also being highly self-directed

The above represent attributes our ideal candidate possesses. We encourage all highly-qualified candidates to apply, even if they do not fulfill all the listed criteria.
