About CookUnity
Food has lost its soul to modern convenience. And with it, has lost the power to nourish, inspire, and connect us. So in 2018, CookUnity was founded as the first-of-its-kind platform that connects the world with the source of truly great food: chefs. Today, CookUnity delivers 35 million meals a year from the industry’s best chefs to homes all over the country. Fresh. Ready-to-eat. And crafted with the passion that nourishes body and soul.
Unwilling to stop there, CookUnity is expanding beyond delivery to become an ever-innovating marketplace focused on our singular mission: empower Chefs to nourish the world.
If that mission has you hungry in more ways than one, you’ve found the right job posting.

We are the backbone of CookUnity’s product catalog, ensuring every meal and ingredient is accurately defined, maintained, and seamlessly integrated with other core services.
Beyond catalog management, our team drives menu planning—helping chefs craft exceptional culinary experiences—while also managing the integration of on-premise printing systems to generate precise and efficient meal labels. Our work directly impacts how meals move from concept to creation, making us a key player in the seamless execution of CookUnity’s supply chain.
