Afresh | San Francisco, CA | Full-time | Onsite
Afresh is a Series A startup focused on automating the food supply chain using AI with the ultimate goal of eliminating food waste. In the US, about 40% of all food waste occurs in supermarkets and downstream, largely due to inefficient manual ordering processes. This waste leads to $80B in economic losses as well as 1.5 billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions, which is comparable to the emissions of Japan.
Afresh is commercializing a technology developed as part of a Stanford research project that automates the pen-and-paper processes used by supermarket operators. This technology cuts retail food waste by 50% and dramatically increases the stores' profit margins.
We are founded by a team of Computer Science PhDs, MBAs, designers, and engineers from Stanford, Berkeley, CMU. We're backed by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt's firm (Innovation Endeavors) and the first investors in Instagram, Stitchfix, SoFi, and Heroku (Steve Anderson of Baseline Ventures).
We're growing fast: we're in a partnership with 4 large regional grocers representing 500+ stores and $10B in revenue. We're also looking for smart, enthusiastic, dependable people interested in applying cutting-edge technology to problems with significant societal impact.
Our open roles are:
* Machine Learning Engineer
* Backend Engineer
* Site Reliability / DevOps
* Mobile Developer
* Full-Stack Web Developer
