Job description

Company:

Rowdy is building the next generation of salty snacks. Our mission is simple: deliver all the bold flavor and craveability consumers expect from their favorite snacks, with significantly fewer calories and without compromising on taste.

Our belief is simple: fewer calories shouldn't mean less flavor, less fun, or a product that feels like a compromise. Rowdy is rethinking the salty snack category by creating products that deliver on everything consumers love, with dramatically better nutritional profiles.

Rowdy is part of Medici Brands, the consumer food platform behind David, HallPass, Epogee, and other emerging brands. Led by CEO Peter Rahal, Co-founder and Former CEO of RXBAR, Medici recently raised a $250 million Series B at a $2.25 billion valuation.
