Head of Engineering

Head of Engineering

We’re best known for our FoodHealth Score , a 1–100 rating system that measures the true health of food products. It functions like a FICO Score for food , used by grocery retailers and food brands across the country. (See the power of the score in action - https : / / www.foodhealth.co / healthofamericasgrocerycarts)

We have multiple Fortune 500 retail & CPG clients, and a recent $8M Series A. We operate Monday-Thursday (remote Fridays) from our SOMA office.

The Role

We’re looking for a Head of Engineering to build the future, hands‑on.

Someone who writes elegant, scalable code on Monday, shapes architecture on Tuesday, and recruits A+ engineers by Friday.

This person will be the technical backbone and creative engine behind FoodHealth Co’s products.

You’ll work directly with the CEO, CCO & CPO to design, build, and scale systems that make the FoodHealth Score ubiquitous across retailers, CPG brands, and millions of consumers.

If you can turn a messy grocery dataset into something that changes how the world eats, this is your moment.

What You'll Do

• Own our technical vision – work with our CPO to shape and execute the roadmap across consumer (FoodHealth AI) and enterprise (FoodHealth Intel / API) products.
• Build and lead – write code, ship fast, and grow a small, mighty engineering team (currently a team of 7).
• Architect for scale – design systems that handle billions of data points across products, ingredients, and users.
• Collaborate deeply – work side‑by‑side with product, design, and data science to turn ideas into working magic.
• Create leverage – use AI, automation, and scrappy innovation to do more with less.
• Think like an owner – move fast, sweat the details, and make great decisions with limited information.
