We work with people from all diverse backgrounds and communities and recognize our own biases. We strive to create a strong sense of belonging and believe we will be better equipped to achieve our goals by building a team that approaches problems from different angles, using different perspectives and experiences to solve problems. All qualified applicants will be considered, and we have no regard for age, ethnicity, ability, gender, gender expression, gender identity, nationality, race, religion, or sexual orientation - the more, the merrier, and together we can achieve greatness.

  4. Compliance and Quality Assurance: Ensure that all engineering activities comply with relevant health, safety, and environmental regulations. Maintain readiness for audits, demonstrating adherence to the highest standards of regulatory compliance and quality control.

  • Team Builder: You are a motivational leader capable of building, developing, and nurturing a high-performing engineering team, emphasizing skill development and professional growth.

Mission:

We inspire busy people to eat well and live better - Delivering chef-cooked meals crafted from quality, locally sourced produce.
