We are a small, remote-friendly team based in Miami. We hire cooks who can write and writers who can cook.
We do not run an open office or a war room. We test recipes in our own kitchens, edit on shared docs, and ship. Most roles are remote with a yearly meet-up in Miami. Every team member has a stipend for groceries, equipment, and the occasional smoker.
Pay is competitive for our size. Benefits include health, dental, and a flexible PTO policy that we actually use. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome applications from anyone who can do the work.
Three positions open right now. Send a resume and short note to info@fermentationfestival.com.
Develop, test, and write 6 to 8 recipes per month for the member library. Strong focus on Mediterranean and Asian fusion. We are looking for someone who has worked the line, can write a clean ingredient list, and is comfortable being edited.
Need to have: 5+ years professional kitchen experience, published recipe writing, gram-and-cup fluency, comfort with photography for process shots.
Be the first reply on every member email. Triage billing, recipe, and store questions. Work closely with the editor when corrections are needed. We answer most emails within one business day and would like to keep it that way.
Need to have: 2+ years customer support, calm tone, fluency with help-desk tools, light home-cooking confidence so you can answer recipe questions without escalating every one.
Shoot finished plates and process shots for new recipes, on a per-project basis. Approximately 6 shoots per quarter. Natural light setup, clean styling, no foam tweezers. Portfolio with home-kitchen and editorial work strongly preferred.
Need to have: Own equipment, three-year minimum portfolio, ability to do quick turnarounds, willingness to eat the test batches.
Email info@fermentationfestival.com with the role in the subject line. Include a resume, a short note on why you are a fit, and a link to two or three pieces of relevant work. We read every application and reply to every applicant within two weeks.
