About the startup & role

I am an EIR at Menlo Ventures who is currently laying the groundwork for a completely new take on the nutrition tracking space. This space has been stale for a long time and AI unlocks an opportunity to completely change the experience. I am looking for a 0 to 1 mobile engineer that’s going to craft the core mobile experience behind this exciting new product.

Few important notes about the company

    • This platform is not just about nutrition tracking but about discovery, "fun" is a missing term in this space and we want to bring it back.
    • We're going to make good use of wearable health data to tie your nutrition to outcomes; this is not being done at this stage beyond basic calorie in-out calculations.
    • We're mission-driven and focused on ways to bring the cost for the user to as low as possible, ideally free.
    • We're investigating ways this platform can be used to reduce food waste at a societal level.

Your responsibilities

    • Full ownership over the mobile development from A to Z, close collaboration with our designer and ML engineer
    • Close collaboration with CEO and ML Engineer on leveraging AI to the max in the development of this product
