At Impossible Foods, PMs have a unique opportunity to directly impact global sustainability through food innovation. Unlike traditional tech companies, our PMs work at the intersection of food science, consumer goods, and environmental sustainability, requiring a diverse skill set and a passion for creating tangible, edible products that can change the world.

While prior food industry experience is valuable, it's not always a requirement. We look for candidates with strong product management skills, a passion for sustainability, and the ability to quickly learn and adapt to the food tech space. That said, familiarity with food science concepts or consumer goods can be a significant advantage.
-
Projects can range from developing new plant-based meat alternatives to improving existing products, launching in new markets, or creating entirely new categories of sustainable foods. You might also work on initiatives to improve our production processes, reduce environmental impact, or enhance the nutritional profile of our products.
-
We offer various opportunities for growth, including mentorship programs, cross-functional project assignments, and access to industry conferences and workshops. PMs are encouraged to stay at the forefront of both food technology and product management best practices.
-
Our culture is fast-paced, innovative, and mission-driven. We value collaboration, creativity, and a willingness to challenge the status quo. PMs are expected to be adaptable, resilient, and comfortable with ambiguity as we navigate the evolving landscape of sustainable food technology.
