We’re Tovala, a food-tech company reinventing home cooking to save consumers time. Through an innovative combination of hardware, software, and fresh food delivery, we make it incredibly simple for anyone to prepare and enjoy delicious, home-cooked meals without sacrificing time to do whatever matters to them. Through our superior technology, product experience and food quality, we have separated Tovala from the busy pack of other meal delivery businesses. In the process, we’ve amassed a loyal, rapidly growing following and our retention, product engagement and customer NPS are all best-in-class. We’ve raised over $100mm from great investors like Left Lane Capital, Origin Ventures, Y Combinator and Comcast Ventures and have invested strongly in building a unique culture that fosters growth, personal development and camaraderie.

At Tovala, we eat data for breakfast…along with our delicious biscuits. Our team is a small group of engineers and analysts who are passionate about helping teams across the Tovala organization make data-driven decisions. We are looking for an experienced Data Engineer who can help us to develop our existing data platform as well as bringing their own expertise and ideas to the table. An ideal candidate would be a data nerd with a strong technical background who enjoys working cross-functionally to solve problems with data. Bonus points if you love food as much as the rest of us!
