Full Job Description

The company

We're a venture-backed consumer marketplace for fresh, home-cooked meals, operating company-run delivery hubs in major U.S. markets. Every day, each hub receives chilled prepared food from hundreds of independent cooks, stages it into individual customer orders, and dispatches it against hard delivery cutoffs. We're past the scrappy phase and scaling fast; consistency and operational discipline across markets is what takes us to the next level.

The role

You'll own operational consistency across several of our highest-volume hubs. This is not a warehouse job and not a DC job. There are no pallets sitting for weeks: product arrives in the morning, is quality-checked, chilled, sorted into hundreds of individual orders, and out the door by afternoon cutoffs, every single day. Each hub has an on-site lead running day-to-day execution with an hourly crew. Your job is to raise and hold the bar across all of them (order accuracy, on-time dispatch, cold chain and food safety) and to step in directly when a site slips.

Your markets are always in motion: new programs, facility changes, leadership transitions, rising volume. You raise the bar inside that motion without burning out the teams underneath you.

This is a same-day triage environment: when a defect spike, a cold-chain issue, and a lead call-out hit different markets on the same morning, the cutoffs don't move, and you're the one who re-deploys labor and gets on the phone.

What you'll own

Cross-site standards. Define, raise, and hold the operating bar across hubs: order accuracy, dispatch timeliness, cold chain and food safety, opening/closing routines. Catch drift early and correct it.
Diagnosis and remediation. Read site and market performance data, own root-cause diagnosis, and drive the fix. You'll live in dashboards (defect rates, refund costs, on-time dispatch) but you won't need to write the queries.
Coaching remote site leaders. Develop hub leads in markets you can't visit daily, through direct coaching and honest performance conversations. This runs on your ability to read a site's health from the data (labor hours, accuracy rates, on-time departures) rather than from walking the floor, then turn what you see into a specific conversation. Put your time where the weakest site is.
Hourly hiring and site leadership pipeline. Own hiring for hourly roles across your markets and run lead/supervisor searches when a site has a leadership gap.
Program rollouts. Pilot new operational programs in one market, prove them, standardize, and land them cleanly everywhere else.
Scale-up execution. Operate through facility moves and capacity expansions while keeping daily service steady.
Labor and scheduling oversight. Review shift deployment and weekly schedules across sites; hands-on support for hubs that can't yet self-manage. Crews are hourly and labor curves spike around receiving windows and dispatch cutoffs; you'll know how to schedule to that shape.

What you'll be measured on

Order accuracy, on-time dispatch, and food-safety compliance across your markets; the trajectory of your weakest site; clean program launches; and standing up site leadership where it's missing.

Who you are

You've run perishable or hard-cutoff operations. Grocery e-comm, rapid delivery / micro-fulfillment, meal kit, catering production, commissary, or multi-unit food service. You've owned a daily SLA where the product dies or the window closes if you miss.
You've led hourly teams in person. Schedules, call-outs, coaching, and the hard conversations, face to face on a floor, not over a dashboard.
You've overseen more than one site at once. Even within a single metro. You've held multiple locations to a common standard at the same time and can talk specifically about how you kept a site on-bar when you weren't standing in it. This is the seed of managing markets remotely, and it matters more to us than years of title.
You've built and stabilized, not just maintained. Sites through change: new programs, staffing gaps, fast volume growth, without service slipping.
A standards-raiser. You can walk into a warm-but-undisciplined team and tighten the bar without steamrolling anyone; they come out sharper and still want to be there.
Fluent in operational metrics. You find the root cause in the data and turn it into a plan, comfortable consuming dashboards without building them.
Calm under concurrent load. When several sites need you at once, you triage to where your attention is worth the most.

We're open to someone earlier in their multi-site journey. If you've run daily ops excellently across a few locations in one market and you're ready to step up to managing markets you can't drive to that afternoon, we'll teach you the multi-market and logistics side. What we can't teach is the daily execution instinct and the floor credibility with hourly crews; bring that.

Nice to have

Experience standardizing operations across a fast-scaling, multi-site footprint
Freight / inbound logistics exposure (LTL/FTL, carrier coordination); we can teach this
Lean / continuous-improvement training

The details

Full-time, salaried. Target range: $75–90k. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area (our highest-volume market) with regular travel to your other markets.

Pay: $75,000.00 - $90,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Employee discount
