Summary Generated by Built In

Afresh is the leading AI company in fresh food—partnering with grocers like Albertsons, Wakefern, Meijer, and Stater Bros to order billions of dollars of fresh food in over 12,000 grocery departments nationwide.

Following record-breaking 70% growth in 2025, we’ve expanded our platform to cover all fresh departments, launched our full store suite, and debuted DC Fresh Buying.

We’re on a mission to eliminate food waste and make fresh food accessible to all. In 2025 alone our software helped save 200M lbs of food waste. If you're looking for a role where your work directly translates into massive scale and social good, and you want to be part of the team that defines the future of fresh, there is no better time to join us.

About the Role

As the Product Manager for Corporate Replenishment (Inventory Management and Store Ordering), you’ll own our next generation store-level solution. You'll own user and market research for this area, and you'll work with beta customers, early adopters, sales and marketing to take this product area to market. You'll work closely with product design, machine learning engineers, and mobile and full-stack engineers to create a holistic experience that works end to end. Your ownership, attention to detail, and your obsession with outcomes will lead to both short and long term rewards: every incremental bit of performance you deliver will directly result in less food waste.

What You’ll Do
  • Own our next generation inventory management and store ordering solution that will be responsible for ordering 25%+ of fresh food volume in grocery in the US, eliminating 100s of millions of pounds of food waste (with the potential to grow that to billions)
  • Own your product vision and roadmap, including the ML models, end to end app experience, monitoring and reporting, and data validation.
  • Communicate both the business and technical rationale behind your decisions. Evangelize your vision and excite others with where you want to take your product.
  • Deeply understand the market and our customers in order to build products that deliver massive value to our customers and the broader fresh food ecosystem.
  • Work cross-functionally with Operations, Engineering, Design, Marketing, and Commercial to realize our product vision by taking products from conception to launch.
  • Build strong relationships with partners and customers in order to inform roadmap and product prioritization.
  • Develop user stories and product requirements, engage in usability and prototype testing, and define and monitor success metrics for maximal impact.
Skills and Experience

The following represent the skills and experience our ideal candidate possesses. We encourage all highly-qualified candidates to apply, even if they do not fulfill all the listed criteria.

  • 3+ years of demonstrated success as a Product Manager, launching and scaling customer-facing software that achieved measurable business outcomes
  • Technical fluency that enables you to creatively explore possibilities and challenge constraints with engineering, with demonstrated ability to earn the respect of talented engineers.
  • Strong analytical skills, with the ability to gather data, both qualitative and quantitative, emerge with insights, and make and communicate well-reasoned decisions.
  • Excellent communication skills, logical reasoning, and storytelling, with proven ability to collaboratively work across a variety of stakeholders.
  • Experience creating product roadmap(s) from conception to launch, driving product vision, defining go-to-market strategy and leading design discussions.
