Coop | Onsite | Austin, TX | Full-time | Full stack Engineers | EA / Chief of Staff | UI / UX Designers

My name is AJ Forsythe and I'm the Founder / Chief Chicken Tender at Coop! We're an Austin TX based tech company on a mission to democratize chickens + build the largest decentralized food production network. It's insanely fun to work on and we have a shot at building a huge business in the connected urban farming space. Check out www.Coop.Farm to see what we’ve spent the last 18 months on as we’re building the world’s best chicken coop. We’re a 2 months away from entering production and are seeing hundreds of thousands of dollars of Coop pre-orders - It's a super exciting time and are seeing directional product market fit which I'm thrilled about.

We’re a tight-knit team of 6 people with 10+ years of experience working together. We’ve been through Y Combinator, started and scaled multinational million-dollar businesses together, taking them from idea to acquisition by a Fortune 50 company. We’re gritty and passionate without taking ourselves too seriously - and we’re here to build something really exciting that helps people reconnect with their food and the planet.

We’re looking to hire:

Chief of Staff / EA to the founder: https://coop.rippling-ats.com/job/599237/-founder-s-ea-pa-co...

UI / UX Designer + Product Manager: https://coop.rippling-ats.com/job/512664/-founding-ui-ux-pro...

Full stack Engineer with iOS focus I need to repost this job but reach out if you’re interested.

We're VC backed (a few $m+) by some of the best investors and are having a blast building this business. if this resonates with you we would love to talk - You can reach me directly at: AJ[at]Coop.Farm. A short email about why you're interesting and the right fit is all we need to get started.

Having just seen a production of Best Little Whorehouse in Texas I had to blink a couple times and recalibrate my brain.

This is extremely interesting! I’ve been getting involved in community gardens and housing coops here and I’m very interested in furthering a model that allows people to more easily access high quality food. Blog: [link redacted]

Also, when you say democratize chickens do they get to vote about if they.. umm.. get eaten?
