Staff Forward Deployed Engineer

At Afresh, we are on a mission to eliminate food waste and revolutionize the grocery industry through the power of cutting-edge AI. As a Staff Forward Deployed Engineer, you will be at the front lines of our growth, bridging the gap between sophisticated machine learning models and the real-world operational challenges of our retail partners. Following a record-breaking 2025, we are looking for a brilliant, mission-driven engineer to help us scale our impact as we transform the way over 10% of U.S. grocery stores manage their most complex assets: fresh food.

This is a high-visibility role designed for someone who thrives on solving ambiguous, high-impact problems in a fast-paced environment. You won't just be writing code; you will be acting as a technical architect and consultant, working directly with our enterprise partners to integrate our AI solutions into the heart of their operations. If you are a recent graduate or early-career engineer with a passion for building robust, scalable systems that solve tangible environmental and economic problems, this is your chance to shape the future of the global food supply chain while growing alongside a team that is rapidly redefining what is possible in retail technology.
