Frontend Developer

Salary Competitive

Do you share our ambition to fight food waste and optimize professional kitchens through technology and innovation? If so, you might be FoodOp’s new frontend developer.

 

About us

FoodOp was founded in 2020 with a mission to reduce food waste in commercial kitchens. It quickly turned out that food waste is a symptom of an analogue eco-system with great potential to improve the environmental footprint, productivity, and the quality of food servings.

As we say: it becomes much easier to run a sustainable, profitable and enjoyable kitchen with data-enriched menu engineering.

 

Our solution

FoodOp is a digital platform that helps professional kitchens reduce Co2 and admin workload. The platform consists of three main modules that make it easy to plan and share menus, and enables kitchens to track and report on CO2 and food waste.

  • The menu planning module makes it easy to plan and share menus and comes with inspiration from hundreds of other chefs using the platform.

  • The Co2 module enables kitchens to automatically report on Co2 by uploading procurement data.

  • The food waste module enables kitchens to automatically report on food waste. The technology can also be used to measure consumption, and you can easily get an overview of the data.


These services are delivered through an Angular web application and a Python backend.

We offer hands-on experience building and scaling a SaaS platform. As part of a fast-growing start-up, you will enjoy a wide variety of responsibilities and get a high level of autonomy and project ownership.

Working at
FoodOp

Our mission is to reduce the CO2 footprint in professional kitchens by reducing food waste and enabling a sustainable menu transition. Food waste is a 1.6-billion-ton problem that is estimated to account for 8-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions. We founded FoodOp in 2020 with the mission of combatting food waste in commercial kitchens. However, it quickly turned out that food waste was a symptom of an analog ecosystem with great potential to improve the environmental footprint, productivity, and quality of food servings. Therefore, we have ended up building a digital platform that helps professional kitchens reduce Co2 and admin workload. We do so through a menu planning module, a display module, and an ESG reporting module where kitchens can manage Co2, organic produce, nutrition, and food waste. The menu planning and ESG reporting modules are powered by AI and an automated data collection methodology that enables more sustainable, profitable, and enjoyable food service.
