Upside Foods

Why It's a Great Time To Join

Livestock cultivation for meat is an enormous driver of global carbon emissions: at least 14% of atmospheric emissions are attributable to the industry, comprising both direct emissions and the carbon costs of producing enormous amounts of feed. Upside Foods is the clear category leader in a market worth hundreds of billions of dollars annually.

About

Upside Foods was founded to create meat without killing animals. The company aims to shift the demand for livestock-derived meat by growing animal meat cells in a lab. They begin by feeding real animal cells micronutrients to stimulate growth; from there, the cells are left to cultivate for 2-3 weeks, producing meat that can be used like any other. Their first product is lab-grown chicken meat: real chicken without any of the ethical or carbon consequences.

Upside has assembled a passionate all-star team with expertise in science, biotechnology, and a love of food. They are hiring for many functions, including operations, R&D, quality, data, and more.
