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.

The role:

The Food Safety Specialist ensures a safe, clean, and functional environment in the CookUnity Facility.

Responsibilities:
  • Monitor production activities and ensure all chefs and employees comply with food safety regulations.
  • Assist chefs with cooking and cooling logs, safety storage and other critical tasks
  • Perform critical checks including refrigeration, chemical concentration, temperature monitoring and equipment calibrations
  • Conduct daily facility compliance walks, document findings, and assign corrective actions as necessary
  • Ensure the facility is always inspection-ready for local regulators and third-party auditors.
  • Collaborate with the Food Safety team to deliver chef and employee training on food safety and sanitation practices.
  • Work closely with other departments such as Kitchen Operations, Supply Chain and Maintenance to correct issues affecting food safety and quality.
  • Provide detailed reports on compliance status and recommendations for continuous improvement.
Requirements:
  • Experience working in a high compliance food processing facility (USDA, FDA) or large volume food business with established food safety programs
  • Experience working with a team in a fast paced environment
  • Good communication skills and ability to speak in a professional manner to a wide range of partners and stakeholders
  • Ability to build relationships and explain food safety concepts in plain language
  • Ability to work independently and complete assigned duties without direct supervision
  • Proficiency G Suite/Google Workspace.
  • Team player with a positive, collaborative mindset
  • Ability to stand and walk for extended periods
  • Ability to complete tasks in cold (coolers) or hot (kitchens) environments
  • Ability to stand for long periods, lift up to 50 lbs., and work in a physically demanding environment.
