Food & Ingredient Analyst (Contract, Part-Time)

Role Summary

WISEcode is building the world's most comprehensive food data platform, co-developed with nutrition scientists to reveal what's really in our food. We're hiring a very select team of high caliber food and ingredient analysts to help build the foundation that everything else is built on: clear, accurate ingredient data. This is precise, meaningful work — with clear and accurate food information, and a real opportunity to impact the health of everyday Americans.

• Job type: Contract, part-time
• Schedule: Guaranteed weekly hours 10 hrs/week for 4 weeks; immediate short-term ramp
• Location: Remote (U.S.)
• Start: August 20, 2026. (Training on or before Aug 17; executing on or before Aug 20)

Responsibilities

• Work directly with food and ingredient data, identifying what makes each ingredient unique and how ingredients relate to one another.
• Use AI tools to bring clarity to each ingredient — its identity, functional capacities, synonyms, and scientifically backed descriptive detail.
• Keep the data accurate and consistent; catch and correct errors.
• Work in a team environment picking up review requests from a queue and resolve those requests or escalate for next steps.

Requirements

• A formal background in nutrition or food science (AA, bachelor's, advanced degree, or technical training).
• Strong ingredient and chemical understanding — you know what an ingredient is and how it behaves.
• A detail-first, highly accurate approach; comfort reading Nutrition Facts panels and ingredient lists.
• Confidence with numbers and data entry; a talent for spotting mistakes.
• Excellent time management; you set and meet deadlines.
• High quality communicators that can work in a high paced, team oriented environment.

How we hire

We expect many applications and are selecting only ten analysts. The application includes a short hands-on skills exercise so we can see your accuracy in action.
