Why not BetterBasket?
We don't believe in wasting your time. Here are some reasons you should not apply:

• You are looking for a manager to be told what to do - how to fix a bug, the right approach for a problem, what's next for your career. You will be accountable for your own work, but what is possible will be bound only by your ambition, ideas, and the $800bn grocery industry.
• You want a job with work-life balance. Recharging is essential, but we're working on such exciting projects at the frontier of retail and AI (which our customers can't wait to use!) that we can't stop thinking about our next sprint.
• You question if things are “worth it” - if this job is worth the “opportunity cost” of a Big Tech salary, if grinding out a feature was worth a late night. You will be given everything needed to be comfortable and the upside of a founder, but we know exceptional things are only done with great sacrifice that compound over time.

What are you working on?

• BetterBasket is developing the first fully integrated pricing solution for grocers, coming from our founders' experience launching Uber Eats' global grocery delivery platform. We're working on everything from pricing algorithms to custom digital price tags in order to create a revolutionary product to transform the $800bn grocery industry.
• We're already working with top 100 international grocers in North America and LatAm on dynamic pricing and market data, and from day one you'll be working closely with leaders and subject matter experts at our customers on their top priorities.
• BetterBasket is backed by top investors like Y Combinator and Aito Capital as well as founders and C-suite executives at YouTube, Uber, Amazon, Tesco, and GoodRx.
• Our work environment is collaborative and inclusive, fostering growth and learning. If you're eager to be part of a fast-moving, innovative team that values your development, we want you on our team.

What can I work on?
BetterBasket Is Developing The First Fully Integrated Pricing Solution For Grocers. Problems That You Could Work On As a Hands-on Founding Engineer Include But Are Not Limited To

What's in it for me?
