About CookUnity:

Food has lost its soul to modern convenience. And with it, it has lost the power to nourish, inspire, and connect us. So in 2018, CookUnity was founded as the first-of-its-kind platform that connects the world with the source of truly great food: chefs. Today, CookUnity delivers 50 million meals a year from the industry’s best chefs to homes all over the country. Fresh. Ready-to-eat. And crafted with the passion that nourishes body and soul.

Unwilling to stop there, CookUnity is expanding beyond delivery to become an ever-innovating marketplace focused on our singular mission: empower Chefs to nourish the world.

If that mission has you hungry in more ways than one, you’ve found the right job posting.

The role

We’re looking for a hands-on Chef Operations Supervisor to support the launch, stabilization, and ongoing performance of licensed culinary businesses within the market. You’ll work alongside chef-operators to strengthen their teams, processes, and leadership capabilities so they can execute consistently and independently.

As CookUnity’s on-site operational representative, you’ll connect daily kitchen operations with the General Manager, Licensed Operations, and functional partners. You’ll identify risks, coach kitchen leaders, coordinate issue resolution, and ensure corrective actions lead to lasting improvements.

Assigned licensed stores will be your primary focus. As capacity allows, you’ll also support selected strategic chef launches and targeted team-development needs across the market.

This is an on-site role, with scheduled days off primarily falling between Tuesday and Thursday.

Responsibilities

• Lead operational onboarding, kitchen setup, training, production trials, and launch-readiness assessments for assigned licensed stores.
• Develop kitchen-level launch plans in partnership with the General Manager, confirming readiness across staffing, recipes, ingredients, equipment, workspace, food safety, capacity, packaging, and production handover.
• Verify that approved recipes and processes can be executed consistently in the production environment, providing structured feedback to Product Development without independently changing culinary intent.
• Recommend launch go/no-go decisions to the General Manager using objective readiness criteria, and provide hands-on support through launch and ramp-up.
• Assess daily production readiness, identify risks early, and maintain visibility during critical production periods and volume increases.
• Coach chef-operators and kitchen leaders on shift planning, production checks, quality reviews, staffing, training, and problem-solving to strengthen independent execution.
• Develop targeted improvement plans for performance gaps and escalate recurring capability or accountability concerns to the General Manager with clear supporting evidence.
• Coordinate immediate containment and recovery when issues threaten production, food safety, quality, customer experience, or handover, maintaining clear ownership between operators and CookUnity teams.
• Maintain issue logs and track problems through root-cause analysis, corrective action, and verified resolution, preventing temporary workarounds from becoming permanent practices.
• Monitor adherence to approved recipes, cooking temperatures and programs, yields, portions, batch standards, critical control points, and licensed-b
