About Us
Imagine: 30 unique restaurants to order from, brought to your door in under 30 minutes. That’s what our customers experience.
At Wonder, we want to make world-class food within reach, no matter where you live. That’s why we’ve created a vertically integrated, new standard of dining that will allow you to enjoy menus from award-winning chefs and iconic restaurants across the country, all in one place. Our elevated brick + mortar locations will offer pick up and dine in options, as well as delivery to your home.
As a food-tech startup backed by top-tier venture capitalists and led by a team of experienced entrepreneurs—including some of the most accomplished leaders in the technology, culinary, and logistics industries—we’re growing. Join us in pioneering a new category of dining called “Fast-Fine”, and revolutionizing the way people eat.
About the role
Within our kitchens, we use technology to make all aspects of our operation more efficient; this enables us to deliver on our customer promise of high quality food and minimal time. A central pillar of this technology is an inventory management system that aims to maintain accurate counts of over 600 distinct, perishable SKUs while adding minimal overhead to the daily actions of our line cooks and managers.
In this role you will own the success of Pantry, our proprietary inventory management solution. This position will allow you to balance the competing priorities of minimizing waste and reducing stockouts, and to optimize usability and collection of high-quality data. Constantly you will use this data to assess how we can improve labor metrics, reduce cost of unsold inventory, and drive data accuracy. More specifically, you will design app features to improve usability, partner with R&D chefs to inform culinary decisions, team up with our forecasting team to ensure menu items are available for sale, and support stakeholders in root causing inventory-related issues. You will own a multi-platform system that underpins financial reporting, raw material procurement, and real-time operation.

Generate roadmap for Pantry mobile and web apps based on stakeholder feedback
