We are looking for a Bug Eater to join our team in a unique and adventurous role that combines elements of food science, entertainment, and cultural exploration. This position is ideal for individuals who are open-minded, curious, and willing to engage with alternative food sources, particularly edible insects. As a Bug Eater, you will participate in taste testing, product development, and promotional events that highlight the nutritional and environmental benefits of entomophagy—the practice of eating insects.
The role involves working closely with food scientists, chefs, and marketing teams to evaluate the taste, texture, and overall appeal of various insect-based products. You will also be expected to provide feedback that will help improve recipes and product formulations. In addition, you may be featured in media content such as videos, blogs, and live events to educate the public and promote the acceptance of insects as a sustainable food source.
This position requires a strong stomach, a sense of adventure, and a willingness to try new things. You should be comfortable speaking in public and appearing on camera, as part of your role may involve representing the company at food expos, festivals, and educational events. A background in food science, nutrition, or culinary arts is a plus, but not required.
The ideal candidate is someone who is passionate about sustainability, open to unconventional experiences, and eager to contribute to a growing movement that challenges traditional food norms. If you are ready to take a bite out of the future of food, we encourage you to apply.
