• Work for us!

  • Diverse global team

    At Cookpad, we have the privilege to work as part of a team of exceptional people who are deeply committed to what they do, do what it takes, and have a lot of fun doing it. With over 40 nationalities across our product and community teams, we deeply respect and cherish the difference of each culture, and view it as one of our core strengths.

    Product

    We’re a team of ambitious, fail-fast self-starters. We take an insight driven approach to everything we do, partnering with our design and engineering colleagues to focus on the right problems to solve. Above all, we’re obsessed with putting world class solutions into the hands of our users.

     

    Design

    We’re a small but mighty team of human-centered designers, innovators and problem solvers. We design for impact. We love to eat, cook and talk about food, and we are clear-eyed about the daunting, exciting task at hand: reshaping the food system on a global scale.

     

    Engineering

    We are a team of mission focused, extremely passionate and motivated web, mobile, data, search, platform and ML engineers who have a deep urge to solve interesting problems for our users. We care deeply about learning and development and invest greatly in this space by running and sponsoring regular developer meet-ups, attending conferences, hosting external speakers (e.g. Kent Beck, Marty Cagan, Matz, Creator of Ruby, to name a few), and by sharing our knowledge internally within special interest groups. If you join Cookpad you will be working with some of the best engineers in the industry.

  • Our approach to people

    As our founder Aki often says, "Life is a scarce resource." We want our team members to have the biggest possible impact in the world, period.

     

    We believe that only passionate and purposeful people create a lasting positive change. Not all our people are passionate about cooking to begin with, but they are passionate about the problems they want to solve - be they technical, societal or environmental. We believe that only those who can find an expression of their own passion and purpose in the context of Cookpad’s mission will have the boldness and resilience required to generate the kind of impact we aspire to.

     

    To that end, we create space, time and opportunities, invest in learning, and support our team members in a customized way as they learn about themselves, their field of interest, our users around the world, and the Cookpad mission. Because we want people to focus on their own development and impact, first and foremost, our compensation approach is simple and transparent. We even have an exit bonus for those who decide that Cookpad is not the right fit for them.

  • Our headquarters

    At the heart of our Bristol HQ is our kitchen. Designed as an embodiment of our mission, this unique space is a constant reminder of why Cookpad exists. It’s a place where curiosity is the order of the day; where team members can step into the shoes of users, find inspiration, discover new ideas, learn from each other on a daily basis and have fun in the process.
